"....Salonga recently launched her "The Human Heart" tour and performed last week at the Scottsdale Center for the Performing Arts in a superb concert that featured her excellent vocal skills and included many musical highlights from her career. The sold-out audience was entertained throughout the two-hour long concert by both the soaring vocals of Salonga and her heartfelt stories and witty banter...delivered soaring versions of musical theatre classics and fun, upbeat covers of several pop tunes. Salonga's vocal control is incredible in how she never faulters in her diction and ensures there is always clarity and precision in every word and note she sings, along with a neverending amount of power and warmth in her delivery. Her stage presence is heartfelt, personable, and full of charm and she managed to convey a clear connection with both the audience and her superb four-piece band....Salonga mentioned several times how gorgeous the Scottsdale Center for the Arts is and how happy she was to perform there, with a sound system that manages to make every word crystal clear and sightlines that give an unrestricted view of the stage from every seat in the theatre, acknowledging that it is clearly one of the best performance venues in Phoenix..
