It’s been a long and illustrious career for Lea Salonga but she continues to push the boundaries to remain the best in her craft, doing her country proud and keeping her fellow artistes inspired

For decades now, Lea Salonga’s star power has held audiences enrapt with wonder. A cut above the rest, especially on stage, she is famed for her perfect pitch, crystal voice and powerful control.
