Della Ding to perform at Genting

FANS of Mandopop star Della Ding can look forward to a sizzling stage performance by the diva on April 28 at Resorts World Genting.

Referred to as the “Newborn Mandopop Diva”, Ding is well known for her captivating voice and spectacular vocal range.

Ding, 28, who hails from Zhe Jiang province of China, apparently ran away from home at the age of 18 to pursue her dreams of becoming a professional singer.

She sang in pubs during her early days and honed her skills as a performer along the way.

Later, she moved to Taiwan and subsequently got noticed by the big wigs of recording companies. Eventually, she was signed up by one of them and became a star.

Ding was initially best known for her ballads but she experimented more with her music on her third album, Night Owl (2009), where she included dance tracks.

Her fourth album Fu Good (2010) featured the hits song Wo Ai Ta, which was used in the drama Autumn’s Concerto.

Ding kick-started her world tour concert, The Diva in Della, in Taipei last December which was very well received.

Not only did Ding show off her vocal prowess but proved to be a great entertainer as well. Fans also got to see her in various fabulous outfits throughout the show.

This concert is said to be different from the singer’s previous soft pop ventures, and she even performed a medley of Broadway classics including Chicago, The Lion King and Rent.

Della Ding’s concert in Malaysia is organised by Star Planet and will be staged at Arena of Stars, Resorts World Genting, on April 28 at 8pm. For tickets, call Star Planet 03-92233667 and TicketCharge at 03-92228811 or go to www.starplanet.com.my.
