Frances Yip, Elisa Chan and Maria Cordero concert at Fallsview Casino

The Avalon Ballroom at Niagara Fallsview Casino August 30th 2010

Normally, I will shy away from publishing any article regarding the concerts I have attended at any of the Casinos but I will make an exception for this because my wife and I truly enjoyed the evening very much.

For most of you not familiar with Ms. Frances Yip, you would not understand the hype about her fame. She is usually know to most Chinese as the Barbara Streisand of the East. In the eighty Ms Frances Yip proper into fame after singing the theme song for the Shanghai Beach Cantonese mini series. Born in Hong Kong and attended Catholic mission school in her earlier years where the missionary help mold her singing career.

Last night Ms Frances Yip, Ms Elisa Chan and Ms. Maria Cordera performed a heart warming evening at the Avalon Ballroom at Niagara Fallsview Casino for a capacity crowd. What make these three ladies stand out are their sincere appreciation for the crowd that was there to attend the concert. They pour out their heart in songs and words and enchant the evening to the crowd.

Unfortunately, without getting permission first I am unable to shoot and publish any photos of the evening.
