Tokyo Global Concert 2016 (4)

  As her performance went on, every audience in the hall became mesmerized with her passionate singing and her charming gesture of fanning her face with both hands in the heat of the stage lights. She had established somewhat fastidious image among some opera fans, but her gesture was quite contrary to it. When she finished singing her fourth number "The Last Rose of Summer," the audience gave her a resounding standing ovation to take a short break while pianist Alexandru Petrovici performed a piano solo during the intermission.
