The Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra (MPO) is bringing an evening of Teresa Teng’s soulful voice and romantic ballads.
Teng’s songs, which resonated with audiences in Malaysia across generations with themes of love, longing, and nostalgia, will come alive once more thanks to Chinese singer Chen Jia.
Chen Jia’s voice is clear, sweet, and hauntingly beautiful, just like the late singer.
Hence, she is also known as Little Teresa Teng.
Chen Jia gained popularity in Taiwan and other parts of Asia, particularly Japan, where she performed for large audiences.
However, it’s worth noting that while Chen Jia is often compared to Teng, she also has her unique style and repertoire of songs.
The special concert on 15 April is in remembrance of Teng’s significant impact on the music industry and fans worldwide.
It will be held at the Dewan Filharmonik Petronas (DFP) in KLCC, and the tickets are selling out fast.
Among the songs for the evening are evergreen hits such as Longing for the Spring Breeze (望春风), The Story of A Small Town (小城故事), So Sweet (甜蜜蜜) and What Do You Have to Say (你怎么说).
