It was indeed a night to remember for fans and concertgoers as the young Kapuso homegrown artists Rita Daniela, Hannah Precillas, Thea Astley, Mariane Osabel, Jessica Villarubin, and Julie Anne San Jose have proven their ensemble title as GMA Network’s Divas of the Queendom in their first-ever concert dubbed “Queendom: Live” held last Dec. 2 at the Newport Performing Arts Theater in Pasay City.

The majestic concert — made possible through GMA Synergy and GMA Entertainment Group — drew thousands of ecstatic fans who definitely enjoyed the night getting entertained and jamming with the divas’ powerful and phenomenal performances.

Warm applause welcomed Rita, Hannah, Thea, Mariane, Jessica, and Julie as they entered the stage all together, belting out powerful songs that kicked off with their jaw-dropping take on “Burnin Up,”  followed by their own rendition of Adele songs. The audience were given a very special treat by these highly-talented Kapuso singers who have been slaying the Queendom stage of GMA’s “All Out Sundays” every week. 

The Queens also did not disappoint concertgoers with their solo performances that gave goosebumps to those present at the venue. After showcasing their sensational vocal prowess with their solos, the Divas of the Queendom proved that they can do more than reaching high notes as they went all out, singing and rapping some of Gloc 9’s most popular songs.

The audience gave the girls standing ovations as the Divas of the Queendom demonstrated their crystal clear voices and mesmerizing harmonies through their acapella performance, followed by their heartfelt rendition of songs from “The Greatest Showman.”

Divas of the Queedom

Making the concert even more majestic and unforgettable is the special participation of Kapuso stars Jeremiah Tiango, John Rex, Anthony Rosaldo, Garret Bolden, and Rayver Cruz.

“Congratulations Rita, Hannah, Thea, Mariane, Jessica, and Julie for the success of your first-ever live concert, Queendom: Live. Your Synergy family is very proud of you. We are truly honored to be able to provide you a platform for you to showcase your world-class talent in front of thousands of Kapuso. We would also like to express our gratitude to all the fans who gave their all-out support to our young and homegrown Kapuso divas. Rest assured that GMA Network, thru Synergy, will never stop thinking of ways for you to witness more Kapuso artists shine and give their all as they entertain you through their undeniably incomparable talent,” said Senior Vice President and Head of GMA Integrated News, Regional TV, and Synergy Oliver Victor B. Amoroso. 

“We have always been proud of our Kapuso homegrown artists Julie, Rita, Hannah, Thea, Mariane, and Jessica. We have witnessed their journey from being contestants of our singing competitions to rising to become the divas of the Queendom they are today.  Indeed, “Queendom: Live” has brought together the Network's artists and talents who definitely brought the house down with their exemplary performances – whether on their own or as a group. We thank everyone who joined us in this concert. This is our special gift not only to these young, talented women but to their supporters as well who have been with them since day one,” shared Consultant for GMA Entertainment Group, Darling de Jesus-Bodegon.

Queendom: Live was directed by Miguel Tanchanco and made possible through GMA Synergy and GMA Entertainment Group.

Helene is a great artist in the contemporary period of music who successfully combined classical and popular musical styles, widely mixed up Germany, Russian and English songs in her singing. I really enjoy her voice and various styles of songs, and she should be introduced to more audiences in the world.

GOSSIP GIRL: A concert review of 'My Valentines in December'

Singer-comedienne Marissa Sanchez's 'My Valentines in December' concert last Dec. 8 was a hit. It was a full house at The Samsung Hall at SM Aura. Despite her laryngitis, Marissa reached all her notes and delivered her work of art brilliantly. Calling all award-giving bodies to at least take a peep at how she did well in this concert. Since I  had my show with Aegis in Iloilo City on the same day, I could not watch her. But I sent my mole to secretly tape her performance on video so I could take a look at how the live show went.

Amidst her laryngitis, the singer performed her songs effortlessly. On top of that, the comedienne’s humor was spontaneous. I felt that she was a bit nervous during the earlier part. So I asked her personally why the jitters, “Admittedly, I have been retiring my green jokes, unlike in the past. I am a Christian now, and my daughter is growing up fast as a teen. I thought my wholesome jokes would not click, but it did. I mounted this concert to support Feed the Hungry Minds Library Inc., a foundation headed by Mr. Arpie Patriarca.  I want to take this opportunity to Giselle to use your article to thank my friends who guested in the concert – Ogie Diaz, JM De Guzman, Ronnie Liang, Jeffrey Hidalgo, Wilbert Ross, and Dingdong Avanzado. I also want to thank my corporate sponsors Viva Artists Agency, EV, Jolly, Big Ben, Excellent Noodles, Sisters Pantyliners, Botejyu, Wing Zone, Doc Rob Chiroparactic Clinic, Beautiderm, Estetika Salon, Rbiel’s Bistro, Danilyn’s, Smart Recycle, Cookies N Dreams, David’s Salon, Naomi, Lynelle Wigs, Camp Suki, Glam ph, Omorfia, Cookie’s Peanut Butter and Nikka. Lastly, I want to thank my superb musical director - Mr. Elmer Blancaflor."

Marissa's repertoire catered to everyone, encompassing classic hits, all of which were enjoyed. At times, the audience even sang along and danced with her. I did not expect this from the singer-comedienne, but the girl can dance. Musical director Elmer Blancaflor’s medleys were fantastic and unique. Though the show was a bit long, the audience did not seem to mind because she connected with her fans, making it a truly unforgettable show! She was full of gratitude that day. 

Several of Marissa's friends who showed support that night included singer Dulce and Cong. Marissa Del Mar, her godmother Jullie Yap Daza, Precy  Ejercito, Ms. Chat Luna, Governor Grace Padaca of Isabela, Judge Pocholo Del Rosario, Mr. Henry Alcantara from DPWH, Rajo Laurel's mother, Aster Amoyo, Marissa Delgado and Mayor Marcos Mamay of Lanao del Norte and many more. Her friends from the entertainment media and some character actors also attended.

I asked Marissa to confirm the rumors if she was truly leaving the concert scene. She just looked at me and said, “No comment for now." I sure hope not. Especially during these trying times, quality entertainment is needed, and Marissa has proven she can deliver just that! She is a rolled into one artist - the singer/performer, comedienne, dancer, host, author, and a true-blooded actress, as she always says she is! We are all so proud of you, Marissa Sanchez.

AUDIOJUNKIE: 'One Christmas': Palarang bituin

AT A GLANCE

• Originally, “Kumukutikutitap” was written for a musical called “Bituin (The Star Of Bethlehem)” by Cayabyab with Jose Javier Reyes’ lyrics and was supposed to be used as a contest piece for a big choral competition back in 1983 that got canceled due to the aftermath of the Ninoy Aquino assassination.

National Artist for Music Ryan Cayabyab’s Pinoy yule classic “Kumukutikutitap” returns and makes its much-awaited debut on streaming platforms with the release of the “One Christmas” album.

As one of the most adored Pinoy Christmas songs ever, it’s hard to believe this tune has been missing in action on music streaming platforms until now.

Originally, “Kumukutikutitap” was written for a musical called “Bituin (The Star Of Bethlehem)” by Cayabyab with Jose Javier Reyes’ lyrics and was supposed to be used as a contest piece for a big choral competition back in 1983 that got canceled due to the aftermath of the Ninoy Aquino assassination. 

The song then found its way into a fund-raising event where it was sung by The Singers’ Foundation choir, which included some of the biggest OPM acts as its members at the time.  As recounted by Mr. C in an interview after its debut, all the choirs that heard “Kumukutikutitap” asked for its choral score. Ever since, the song, with its trademark a cappella arrangement, has become a staple of choirs’ Christmas setlists every Yule season.

However, singer Joey Albert first recorded and released it in 1984.  And while her take was equally cheery, her version had instrument accompaniment.

It took the future National Artist seven more years before he recorded it for “One Christmas” (released in 1991 under the Telesis Recording label). This record served as the Cayabyab’s follow-up to his successful solo album “One.”  And just like the latter record where Cayabyab is the single performer of all the vocals he also arranged, he did the same for “One Christmas.”

'One Christmas' official album cover

“Kumukutikutitap” is a bouncy tune that starts off with an instrumental nod to another enduring Pinoy carol in “Pasko Na Naman Muli” before it turns into an a cappella affair as the main song kicks in. The all-vocal style is a Cayabyab trademark by this time and his arrangement on this one easily shows why he’s a master.  

And this is just one of the many highlights on said album.

The Cayabyab-written “Heto Na Naman,” “Ano’ng Gagawin Mo Ngayong Pasko” (with its “Pasko Na Naman” nod) and the lovely “Miss Kita Kung Pasko” are easy favorites and mixed with old favorites such as “Ang Aking Pamasko” by Antonio Velarde and Levi Celerio, “Noche Buena” by National Artists De Leon and Celerio, “Maligayang Pasko at Masaganang Bagong Taon” a.k.a. “Ang Pasko ay Sumapit” by Vicente Rubi and Celerio, “Himig Pasko” by S.Y. Ramos, and “Payapang Daigdig” also by De Leon.

These, plus a “Pasko Na Sinta Ko” cover complete the collection. “One Christmas” was produced for Telesis by Cayabyab and the late Margot M. Gallardo.  It was recorded at the now-defunct Greenhill Sound Productions studio and sound-engineered by Monching Payumo.

“One Christmas” was almost relegated to analog obscurity if not for the recent acquisition of its distributor Ivory Records by Viva Music, which has now made it easily available on all digital platforms.

So, if you’re thinking of rehashing the same old Christmas songs this Yule season, you’re better off dusting these holiday classics instead. And not just anybody’s cranked-to-death Yule tunes, but a whole record’s worth of Pamasko-themed songs from Ryan Cayabyab himself.
