It’s interesting to know that singer and actress Julie Anne San Jose, who has headlined a few shows here and abroad and shared the stage with the country’s biggest names in music, still gets the jitters whenever she steps on the concert stage.
But that’s something that keeps her feet on the ground. It leaves some a space that allows her to be better, work on her weaknesses, capitalize on her strength as an artist, and challenge herself to give a her audience great entertainment.
On Saturday (July 20), Julie takes on one of her greatest challenges on the concert stage in Julie Sings the Divas at The Theater at Solaire.
Following the success of the Kapuso Concerts The Sweetheart and the Balladeer: Fun Night Only in Iloilo and Cagayan de Oro, and Kapusong Pinoy Studio 7 Musikalye sa Brooklyn with fellow GMA stars, Julie is now gearing up for a world-class concert experience like no other.
The award-winning and multitalented performer shows off her wide vocal range in a true diva style as she breathes new life to the timeless classics of music legends such as Barbra Streisand, Whitney Houston, Celine Dion, and Mariah Carey, accompanied by the UP Arco String Orchestra and under the baton of renowned musical director Maestro Danny Tan.
“It’s one of the most challenging concerts that I’m going to do. The songs that I’m going to be singing are not the songs that I usually perform. Most of the songs are classics,” Julie said. “Whenever I sing a song, I really study the song but I don’t want it to sound as if I’m comping the original. I want to have my own rendition of the song. “
“I am looking forward to this concert because it’s going to be different and of course, it’s very personal to me. I’m going to perform with an orchestra, which I’ve never done before in my past concerts and I’ve always wanted to do something like that. The songs and performances here will have a new approach to them and I think the audience will very much enjoy what we’ve prepared. I’m very excited,” she added..
Joining her in this one-night-only event are special guests Journey lead singer Arnel Pineda and the UP Concert Chorus.
Presented by Sunny Side Up Productions (SSUP) and GMA Network in cooperation with Solaire Resort & Casino, Julie Sings the Divas is directed by Louie Ignacio.
