CONCHING ROSAL
"First Lady of the Philippine Operatic Stage"
(1926-1985)
A native of San Jose, Batangas, Conchita H. Rosal was born on 1926. She started singing at the age of 6 in their local church in San Jose as a soloist. While studying voice at the UST Conservatory of Music, one of her classmates was Sylvia La Torre. She furthered her studies in voice under the tutelage of Dean Verchines in the United States, a well-known coach to leading artists of the Metropolitan Opera and the New York Opera.
Dubbed as the First Lady of the Philippine Operatic Stage, her career in entertainment started to blossom when she won the Elizalde Family Hour Talent Search in 1952. Her performance as Carmen in Trudel Zippers Tagalog production of Bizets opera brought her fame as an opera singer.
One of the Philippines great sopranos, Rosal's musical career spanning three decades were highlighted with unforgettable roles in Philppine productions of Madame Butterfly, 1967, Aida, and the lead role in the zarzwela "Ang Kiri". She died in 1985 of cancer.
Maraming salamat sir! Mabuti naman at mayroon na nito. Parang kailan lang ay naghahanap ako nito sa youtube, wala akong masyadong makita kundi mga video lamang ng mang aawit na kinunan sa mga pagtatanghal.
Meron ho ba kayong "Ikaw Rin" na likha rin ni Nicanor Abelardo? Maraming salamat ulit!

@sbsuser: Pasensya na po dahil wala po akong kopya o plaka ng awiting iyan. Hindi po yata naisaplaka ng Villar Records ang Kundimang "Ikaw Rin" ni Nicanor Abelardo.
