Musical surprises from Lea Salonga

MANILA, Philippines - These are the songs you’ve always wanted to hear Lea Salonga sing. They are old and new songs. Some she has never done before and some you never expect her to perform. It will be an evening of exciting surprises await you as AmbientMedia presents Lea Salonga... Your Songs on Dec. 11 and 12 at the PICC Plenary Hall.

From an overwhelming flood of over 5,000 song requests from around the world, including San Francisco, London, Australia and Dubai, Lea has selected a diverse set to enthrall fans and new listeners. She will thrill audiences with favorites and unexpected hits like Lady Gaga’s Poker Face and contemporary Pinoy rock ditties.

Lea will perform under the musical direction of Gerard Salonga together with the 36-piece orchestra FILharmoniKa. Also joining her on stage are Ai-Ai de Las Alas, Richard Poon and Philippine All Stars.

Aside from the deluge of requests that came in, some with heartwarming stories behind them, a good number of excellent audition videos were sent by Lea’s fans through the concert website, including several pieces from kids. The site has also been updated to include a section where you can ask Lea any question she may answer during the concert.

AmbientMedia is a media and entertainment company whose aim is to bring the talents of both artists and entrepreneurs together to create things that last in the memories of their audience. It recently produced the successful concert Quick Change, featuring Jon Santos with The CompanY.

Again, Lea Salonga... Your Songs promises to be an evening of musical surprises that will delight everyone. This December, Lea simply wants to sing your songs.
