Just found this, via Hayley Online:

Setting the stage as Singapore’s latest host for international calibre concerts, the venue [Star Performing Arts Centre] will celebrate its official opening with a 3-day Opening Festival that will include concerts of HITMAN David Foster and Friends. Following last-year’s sold out shows, the 16-time Grammy Award winner will return with a star-studded line-up of Friends including Babyface, Chaka Khan and Hayley Westenra.


David Foster, you guys!! :D

Thanks Grant! They posted that on Hayley Online, too, but since there was no link, I wasn't sure whether to post it or not.

I think the Singapore show is in November, too.

Oh, I just found a previous tweet that is a little clearer (and lists Hayley first!): http://m.tmi.me/uytPr

I think Hayley and David Foster first met in 2004. There's a story she could tell about it if anyone asks her.

I'm sorry, but I'm not able to ask her any time soon. Since you seem to know about it, can't you (or someone else who might know) explain please???

Thanks. ;)

my paper

American hit-maker David Foster will be back in Singapore to perform his David Foster And Friends showcase once again on Nov 2 and 3.

Joining him will be Chaka Khan (the power vocalist behind the hit Tell Me Something Good), Kenny "Babyface" Edmonds (When Can I See You Again), Paul Young (Every Time You Go Away) and New Zealand classical/pop crossover artist Hayley Westenra.

Foster and gang will perform at 1 Vista Exchange Green. Tickets start at $108.

Sales (priority for Visa cardholders) begin tomorrow. Visit www.ticketbooth.com.sg/home.ntuc or call 6296-2929.


I won't add these concerts to the schedules until we receive confirmation from Hayley's management.

Hi everyone,

I have asked Bandana about these Far East concerts that are being discussed and they cannot comment on the reports.

So we must take it all with a pinch of salt at least for the moment as clearly, IF there is to be any involvement by Hayley, it has not been finalised.

Cheers, Dave

Hi Richard and everyone,

Bandana have now confirmed this event/tour, which was strictly embargoed until today, so a bit of embargo breaking was going on in the Far East. It looks like Hayley will be on the entire tour, so excellent! :D

Quote:
DAVID FOSTER & FRIENDS TOUR

We are pleased to announce that Hayley will be one of the special guests on the David Foster and Friends tour of the Far East in November, kicking off with the two opening concerts at the new Star Performing Arts Centre on 2nd and 3rd November.

Other guests on the bill will include Chaka Khan, Kenny ‘Babyface’ Edmonds, Paul Young and of course, the legendary David Foster himself. For ticket information, please visit http://www.ticketbooth.com.sg/home.ntuc or call the Ticketbooth Hotline on +65 6296 2929. Watch out for more dates to be announced shortly!

From Bandana Management
16 August 2012



We can of course now add it to the schedules etc. and do some tidying up re. dates/threads I'll have a look at that during the day.

Cheers, Dave

I'll add the Singapore dates to the schedules in the next few minutes, and I'll post a link to this thread on our Facebook page. :)

I bet Hayley's recent work with Andrea Bocelli put Hayley back on David Foster's radar. David Foster is still his producer, so he probably had a little to do with getting Hayley to sing with Bocelli last year in Asia.

Hi Libby!

I'm very intrigued as to the songs Hayley will be performing - I imagine they will be David Foster songs?

Perhaps Hayley is inching step by step closer to our dream of her one day peforming with Josh Groban!? ;D ;D [image]

Cheers,
Jillian

Maybe! :D

But then.... Josh is no longer produced by David Foster. :-/

But that doesn't mean David Foster couldn't work things out. I'm sure he and Josh are still on good terms. I think Josh just decided it was time for a change or something.

I'm looking at a list of David Foster songs and 'picking' out songs that Hayley might enjoy singing in Singapore.

If you've got fifteen minutes to spare, here is the list...

...and that's just until 1998 [image]
