Premier balladeer Raymond Lauchengco performs in ‘Breathless’, a special one-night concert at the Teatrino on Thursday, July 9, at 8:30 in the evening. The special guest for the concert is the beautiful and talented Ms. Tin Arnaldo.
Accompanied by an eight-piece band featuring a live blowing section under the musical direction of Jun Austria, Raymond will be performing big band standards, Broadway love songs, pop classics and his 80s big band hits such as ‘Just Got Lucky’ and ‘Wake Me Up Before You Go-go’ from his latest album, ‘Full Circle’.
Raymond began as a theater performer at the age of 12 but shot to fame as one of the lead stars of the Pinoy film classic, Bagets, and having sung the movie’s love theme ‘So It’s You’ established himself as one of the country’s most soulful balladeers. Having shed off his teeny-bopper, matinee-idol image, Raymond re-emerged as a sensitive and engaging performer, garnering an Aliw Award in 2006 for his performance in the concert series ‘The Best of Us’, with Ayen Laurel. Raymond has since focused his repertoire on standards, Broadway hits and big band music because of its classic and universal appeal.
Tickets are available at Php 1,500 each. For inquiries, please contact Teatrino at 721-0635 or 0917-3700395.
