Sitti: Beyond bossa nova

Friday, November 21st, 2008

SITTI is the country’s “Bossa Nova Diva”; she’s that and more. This she proves in a special show, “First,” on her birthday at the Mandarin Oriental this November 29.

Three years after hitting it big with “Para sa Akin” in the music business, with successful concerts and awards, Sitti is feeling very blessed.

“Nag-uumapaw ang blessings sa akin,” she says. So “First” is a way of thanking the people who have supported her. Her fans, those active in the worldwide web who dub themselves “Sittizens,” have always been all-out in supporting her and her music. In fact, their generosity has spilled over to other OPM artists whom they support and even to Sitti’s outreach projects. For a couple of years, they have been involved in giving help to the less-fortunate. In fact, one of her most memorable birthdays was two years ago. It was held at Boys Town. Her non-showbiz boyfriend arranged the surprise, with the kids performing “Para sa Akin” for the teary-eyed celebrant.

Sitti: Her past, present & future

Thursday, November 20th, 2008

By Bot Glorioso

She either takes a break from the usual night ’til dawn singing gigs or goes out to cheer up less-fortunate kids in a charity institutions as a way of celebrating her birthday. But as Sitti turns 24 on Nov. 29, she is setting aside whatever plans she has for her special day with family and close friends to perform in First at the Captain’s Bar of Mandarin Oriental. The concert starts 9 p.m.

“Since it is my first time to do a show that falls on my birthday, we have come up with a concept which will make everyone in the audience know me more by dividing the show into three parts — the past, present and future,” Sitti says.

The past will trace Sitti’s roots prior to hitting the right tune of success through bossa nova. Not everyone knows Sitti started as a lounge singer at 17, belting out standards and jazz hits of Kevyn Lettau and Patti Austin in front of Manila Peninsula and Hyatt’s Calesa Bar music-loving crowd. The stints served as good breather for Sitti, who was then a Business Economics student at UP.
