Our Turf in YouTube

April 11, 2009 — Sonata Singers (Views: 1287)

YouTube LogoOur account in YouTube was made last September 2006.  Yes, it’s almost three years now.  I guess I just didn’t have the inspiration or the drive to upload youtube videos up until yesterday.  Enjoy the initial videos I’ve uploaded.  It’s just some short clips from last year’s MSS (Mepz Singing Sensation).  More videos to come soon.

If you have a youtube account, we’ll be glad to have you add us up in your friends list.

A Sitti Concert Experience

March 10, 2009 — Sonata Singers (Views: 953)
As the grand champion of the recently held MEPZ singing sensation (MSS) last December 2008, I was invited once again to join the MSS’ Top 5 along with Freezy and Atan to do an opening number for Sitti’s concert here in Cebu at CICC last Valentine’s day.

sittiIt was one whopping experience.  The venue was jampacked with Sitti’s eagerly waiting and avid fans.  Then just before Sitti went on stage, the lights slowly went up and there we are.  We then started singing our 10 minute medley of Stand by Me, Beautiful Girl, Overjoyed, Big Spender, Crazy Little Thing Called Love.  Giving it all our best and thankfully, we did it successfully despite the short notice!  It ended up with a loud cheering of the crowd, a defeaning applause with standing ovation and the five of us trying to catch our breath.

Sitti’s concert was joined in by special guest Lloyd Zaragoza.  Sitti looked so lovely while she seamlessly belted out some of her favorite Bossa songs (I got to shake her hand at the backstage). Her signature voice was so cute as well and compensated her angelic face.  Lloyd’s appearance puts laughter in the crowd as he witfully threw in some of his impromptu lines.  And he sings RnB real good.  All in all, the show was great and worthwhile.

A Great Start For 2008

February 8, 2008 — Sonata Singers (Views: 897)
Y2008Indeed, Sonata Singers had a good start for January 2008 as we had gracefully served 10 lovely couples for that month alone as compared to last year where we only had 2 couples and one homecoming party.It’s also good to know that some of our clients dropped by a short message of thanks and appreciation at our friendster site, multiply site and in here, our main site. All we can say is that we are equally honored to be part of their wedding and are happy to know that we have become an integral part of the success of their big day.

We’ve been around for quite some time now and we’re still going to be here for years to come. You can check on that as our list of weddings we’ve serenaded will steadily grow in time.

Here’s a good and thankful bye for the year 2007, and a big hello for 2008.

It’s Time For Sonata to Multiply

July 2, 2007 — Sonata Singers (Views: 1257)

We’ve had this multiply site for quite some time now. Think it was created the same month I started blogspot but I never really had the chance to populate it with web items up until now. For those of you who want to get to know us better through images and to see more photos of couple’s we’ve serenaded, visit our multiply version of Sonata Singers site.

Check Out Our Sample Songs

June 26, 2007 — Sonata Singers (Views: 1973)

Hi there! I’ve got not much to talk about this time (brain drain I think… ). However, I’ve made out an improvement to this site. Check out the audio player of our sample songs in our frontpage and you’ll know what I mean. No longer will you need to download the audio file. You can now play it on our website.

Thank you for your suggestions!

Just Droppin’ By…

May 18, 2007 — Sonata Singers (Views: 867)

It has been over a month now since my last blog here in Sonata Singers’ site. Been quite busy lately… And one of those that had kept my hands full are the weddings we’ll have this May, June and July. Yeah, the peak season for weddings.

Sonata Singers Goes To Boracay!

March 29, 2007 — Sonata Singers (Views: 1263)
The last time I blogged, I remembered I was talking about an experience of being able to have a photo beside one of the Philippines' most prominent persona (Former Chief Justice Davide). Now, after 7 months of preparations and making arrangements, a different experience for Sonata singers went by. This time we're finally able to set our foot on the shores of Boracay. Yup, this is, by far, the best thing that ever happened to us as Sonata Singers! Thanks for the tremendous trust Rev Reyes (bride) gave to us. All arrangements and requests were done basically through email. Whew, how I love technology indeed! It's the first time for all of us to go there and I just can't tell you how excited all of us were. Although the trip was almost a 6 hour ride from Cebu to Iloilo to Kalibo to Caticlan then finally to Boracay, it was all worth it!

The wedding was held along the beach front of Waling-waling Beach resort, located at Station 1. And if you look at the photos I got, you can surmise that this is one unique wedding that's worth remembering. For this wedding, we prepared love songs as requested by Vince (groom) and Rev, like Beautiful In My Eyes, Your Love (composed by Jim Brickman) and the rest of it were taken from our collection of love songs. One of the many unique setup of their wedding was the way they'd setup their tables for their guests... yup, no chairs for some tables which is, on my opinion, a very cool way to go. It was also the first time I saw a wedding with all their guests dressed in white! It felt like I'm in heaven surrounded by angels (or am I just being so imaginative here). There's also this fire dance that totally blew me away. He or she (if you get my point here ) was so graceful and the stunt was nerve cracking, breathtaking and simply stunning and flawless. Another first for me is the performance of the couple as they danced to the tune of "I've had the Time of My Life". Never have I seen a couple go through such preparation such as this one (sorry guys, I've no photo of their dance). But I tell you this, it was worth seeing them express their love and desire for each other through that dance. And finally, to top it all, the wedding ended with a fearsome 15 to 20 minutes of fireworks display. Whew! I can't describe how my neck felt like from watching it coz it's almost a 75 degree angle from where I stand. And that was it, the culmination of their wedding but the start of friendship between the couple and the Sonata singers.

The next day, Sonata Singers went out early morning to face the sunrise of Boracay once more and have that soothing cold plunge on its coastline before going back to reality. I must say our stay was not enough but all in all, the experience was the best! And bringing my family there was twice as best! (Yup, I brought them with me too so that we can, at the same time, enjoy our first!) Thanks to Vince and Rev for believing and opening this door for us!

This one now goes to the list of weddings we serenaded and I’m pretty much having an idea now that this Boracay escapade won't be the last for Sonata singers.

Sounds Like We’re Many, The Power of Three

February 23, 2007 — Sonata Singers (Views: 1456)

Yes, that’s the usual comment we got from our future clients each time we advise them our schedule and tell them to witness and listen to our performance and songs during wedding ceremonies. And the basic reason for this is that each of us sing a different tune for most of the songs we do and it creates an effect as if we’re like a whole choir compressed into three individuals. But if you’re like St. Thomas, then don’t believe anything I say here. Check us out! See and hear us sing and tell us what you think.

If you’ll have us for your reception then one of the advantages we have over a whole choir for the reception is our headcount. Yep, I’m sure most couples are looking for ways to fit in all their guests into their reception based on the no. of heads they can avail out of their wedding reception package. And we’re glad to tell you that Sonata will only take three heads out from it if you’ll have us perform during your reception. Our usual role in receptions is to sing for your guests while they’re having their sumptuous dinner and to sing anywhere within your program as you deem necessary.

However, there are couples which have additional requirements than just having the three of us. Some may require a violinist, a guitarist and an additional vocalist. We’re glad to tell you that we can provide that too. Just send in your inquiries through email and we’ll be in contact with you the soonest time possible if not right away.
