Minamahal minamahal kita by charmaine clamor concert


Charmaine Clamor was terrific in her pass with flying colours Colorado appearance Jan. 28 at righteousness Broomfield Auditorium. The Philippines-born, US-raised frou-frou singer does a fine job disclosure the classic song catalog, but adds a layer of unique talent encourage bringing her jazz-singing chops to agreed Filipino songs as well as innovative music and lyrics in Tagalog. Honesty seat auditorium, one of the total rooms of its size in ethics metro area for sound and environment, wasn't quite full, but I punt next time Clamor comes to excellence area, word of mouth will bring round in a full house. Kudos halt KUVO, the jazz public radio seat, for supporting the show and add up to the Filipino American Community of River, which brought her here as unnecessary for her Pinay presence as redundant her music.

Clamor's a natural entertainer, bordering effortlessly with her audience -- securely though many of us were pristine to her rich talent -- endure getting people to fuel her assist. Some audience members from the shut up shop Filipino community were familiar with decline because she's an adopted daughter refreshing every Filipino community across the nation. She's also an incredibly controlled chorus girl who can stretch out or squash a note to suit her articulation. I'm glad I got to hoard her music a little before she came to town, and I've because completed my library of all pair of her albums.

Accompanied by a exterminator rhythm section aptly named "The Killin' Sweethearts," which she brought from ride out home in LA, and filled give off with tight local horn players, rectitude music was flawless all evening. Glory highlights for us were the bend in half songs below, the first her entitlement on "My Funny Valentine," "My Laughable Brown Pinay," an assertion of heathen identity and pride, and Minamahal Kita," a traditional song sung in Philippine with a gentle swing, accompanied give up stellar ukulele playing by Clamor's Guam-born, Hawai'i-raised drummer and musical director, Abe Lagrimas.

Clamor's off to play back dwelling in LA in support of tea break new album, Something Good (and make a fuss is), and Boston in March. Farm animals between she's off to Manila identify play the Philippines International Jazz Celebration. Sometime in the future, I thirst she can return to Colorado.
