Lea Salonga in my opinion has one of the most commanding voices on Broadway. She can give life to different types of songs. And in this particular concert, she gets to show the versatility of her voice as she tackled a varied selection of some of her favorite show tunes. Not to mention I have never heard anyone sings so perfectly in a LIVE performance.

I especially love her subdued, simple, and heartfelt version of I’ve Never Been in Love Before. She captured the essence of the song beautifully. She gets to sing two songs from Flower Drum Song. Her I Enjoy Being a Girl is a total treat as she sang it with such grinding, girlish, playful sassiness. Her Love Look Away is less emotional compared to the FDS cast recording, but this version is more polished and more precise.
One of the highlights of the concert was her rendition of Nothing from A Chorus Line. She dedicated the song to all her detractors early on her career when she was just starting. I love how she gave life and energy to the song, I have never heard that song sung with such vocal precision and vivacious spirit.

As a treat for Miss Saigon fans, she sang a song from the show that did not make it to the final cut. The song is called Two Much For One Heart. I wonder why the composer decided not to include the song. “I’d give my life my for you” was the emotional core of Kim, “Too much for one heart” could’ve been the vocal showcase core for Kim.
I also like Lea’s take on Where is Love and especially As Long as He Needs Me. Those were powerful renditions that show off her vocal range. She was intense and in command of the song especially the latter. Her Someone to watch over me was also another highlight. She was very effective in capturing the hopeful and romantic and melancholic mood of the song.
The show ended with two great songs, Something Wonderful and Being Alive. As she sung the final note of Being Alive, the light bubs in the stage all lit up to one glorious finale. You just have to see it, it was breathtaking!
Note: The DVD does not contain the entire concert some songs were cut (Another Hundred People, Wouldn’t it be Loverly, Children Will listen, Fallin, On My Own, I Still Believe in Love, and People) probably due to licensing issues or the fact that some of the songs were already released in her other albums. But this is a must buy. I highly recommend this to all her fans and fans of musicals.
Grade: A +
If you love Lea and broadway, you need to own this DVD. From start to finish she is breathtaking. Her phrasing is impeccable with a voice to match. Her version of “Someone To Watch Over Me” in my opinion has never been done so beautifully, and with just a guitar backing her. The San Miguel Philharmonic lead by her brother Gerard is equally wonderful. Bravo Lea!
