To soothe ourselves from the summer heat, it would be great to have a night of alluring and wonderful songs from Indian singer Roma Pradhan as she performs for a one night only concert Musical Soiree V. As the title suggests, it is already on it's 5th year of bringing musical entertainment as well as to raise funds for the Tahanan ng Pagmamahal Foundation.
The benefit concert will be staged at the Carlos P. Romulo Auditorium in RCBC Plaza, Makati City on April 27 from 6 to 8 PM. Roma Pradhan started Musical Soiree in 2014 as a way of giving back to the community.
The fifth installment of her annual fundraising show promises to be even better than previous years as Roma will be performing a variety of Hindi music genres, ranging from Bollywood classics to more the modern hits of today. As per previous years, she is also known for performing a Tagalog song at each show; this year she will be singing "Tagumpay Nating Lahat," a song originally sung by award-winning international Broadway star Lea Salonga.
Roma hails from Calcutta, India and grew up in traditional household, yet she and her brother loved music and singing. She started learning Indian Classical vocal music from the age of 7. She is also a Sangeet Prabhakar, defined as a Bachelor's degree with Music from a recognised University and B.Ed. Sangeet Prabhakar examination of the Prayag Sangeet Samiti, Allahabad. This makes her an expert in Hindustani classical music and she has won numerous singing competitions and awards.
Roma found herself moving to Manila along with her family and her husband and currently has a career in recruitment. She is also a Buddhist and sees that her talent can be a way to give back to those in need through this charitable work.
Proceeds of Musical Soiree V will go towards financing the education of 33 elementary school students from Tahanan ng Pagmamahal. This is the second year that Roma's concert will be benefiting this Taguig-based non-profit organization. In its first year, the profits of this charity event helped the organization Ang Misyon. The Musical Soiree events have also supported the orphanage "Shepherd of the Hills" for the past two years. In addition, the show exposes these organizations to potential donors, further supporting these charitable causes.
Musical Soiree V is sponsored by Citi, Globe, HGS and Gulf Oil. Ticket price is P900. For inquiries or reservations, call 09088885888.
