"She performs as though she belongs there. Let me put it this way .... if she were singing in a bar in an airport, I would miss my plane for her." Carlos Alomar (composer, guitarist, and musical director for David Bowie) Sun-Sentinel, July 13, 2003 "Every
once in a while someone comes along who is unique. Luisa not
only sings this song but also completely sells the song. You
have to have a certain amount of tenacity and guts to jump into
something like that." (Referring to Luisa's performance
at the "Song in the City" national talent search). Carlos
Alomar Sun-Sentinel, July 13, 2003. |

COMMENTS
FROM THE THREE STAR SEARCH JUDGES - FEBRUARY 28, 2004 |
|||||||||||||||
Naomi Judd - Just like getting a box of Cracker Jack, you know you're getting something sweet, but then there's this prize. I love the tembilo in your voice. Your pitch is pure and lovely. Matti Leschom - I believe I heard you hit the High C; I think the Belcanto is in your future. I can't wait to see you at La Scala. I thought that was an amazing performance. MC Lyte - I couldn't understand a word (i sang an Italian aria) but I didn't have to. I felt the compassion; every note was hit precisely. I loved it. |
