I started singing since the death of one of the greatest opera singers of the 20th Century. mainly Pavarotti in 2007. It is until i come upon his death ceremony being held in Medona, which I saw on Youtube, that i came into familiarity with the true opera. Though the real roots of my singing began when i first heard 3 people singing operatically on a tv show on Channel 7 early one morning, it was a group of male somewhat trio, Filipinos, they were called as the tenors magnifying the name Il divo of the Philippines. It is then what pushed me to researched on the name which was " Il Divo" and what has become of them, and their highest recorded work, which was named Regresa a Mi or the Spanish version of Unbreak My Heart.
Further browsing on my favourite site; Youtube, i came across the title { Por Ti Sere ", Not long before I started singing opera , memorizing still, and singing still chinese music pieces from year old childhood classics, It is then i realized while at my favorite singing spot,which was the bathroom, that i can lower down my voice upto its lowest form of male vocal range C5, i knew it that reaching for the tenoric voice is not impossible once you practice a little more often. I had doubt some time in my childhood that this would not happen, that i have a worse voice all throughout my life, because of the maturity thing of becoming an adult, i now have a much deep and complex voice, on earlier times i can sing like birds and cars wanging noisily, but something happened inside that lost the high pitched voice i had from childhood.
From then on i had encountered the 3 tenors music, then towards the beginning of the sprout of talent on American, British, Australia's, Korea's Got talent and even Philippines Got talents most talented vocalists, it is what pushed me farthest away to practice more often than usual on te vocals and high pitches of the voice, still today. I have come across the blind tenor, Bocelli, others like the ever classic Carusso, The new ones some Korean some Canadian, the 10 tenors and all sorts of male operatic vocals in my time. Probably as i am writing this note, the most well known was from Italy, they are only young teens as to their age, much a bit younger than me if you will, they are called " Il Volo" or Flight, Singers of 3, their early names were, il Trio, Dal Trio, and finally Il Volo. Head vocal is Gianluca Ginoble--- the vocalist whose charming and angst will let any gal or gay befall with it...magnetic cheeks and flick of facial expressions along with sharpness of wordings, Ignazio Buchetto -having angelic hold voice, and Piero Barone--being the maturistic italian pizza man voice when singing "O surdato nnamurato".
These boys are heaven's grace, what a magnificent grace they were, with their famous song " O sole Mio". Truly Extraordinary sexy, sharp, anf class.
The tenorish idol of the Philippines was Manolito Saldivar, although he did not won, and his career did not last long, he has helped me in surpassing my other vocal problems, he may not be taught by a coach, but he did gave me a clue on how to pronounce better a word in an operatic manner more easily than usual. Plus i learned the 3rd opera song from him, The one called " Time to say Goodbye" or Con Te Partiro.
On all these excitement i am now setting in standards for my ownself. lol the love of my life being one part Italian and another part Chinese. For over the course of my life i have begun to realize what rich in tradition Italy and China has and which if combined the 2 nations together, so full of history though deeply separated through geography, its still is possible to make ends meet, and thus i leave my notes of my hobby at this point. No place for story endings so i'll just stop until here...
