Singaporean singer and
songwriter Tanya Chua will hold her "Goodbye And Hello" concert at the Shanghai
International Gymnastic Center on Christmas Eve. The 2007 album gained 7 Golden
Melody Award nominations àƒ³ the Chinese equivalent of the Grammys àƒ³ where she won
awards for best female artist and best album producer.
Chua, who made her
debut 11 years ago, is known for her magnetic voice and composing skills. She
has written songs for many of the top female stars singing in Chinese.
But
the 33-year-old singer admits it is difficult to be a serious musician. She said
she almost gave up two years ago, shortly before she received her first Golden
Melody award.
"Rather than feeling honored, I felt comforted by the award. It
was like an encouragement to sincere musicians like me," says Chua.
She has
prepared more than 10 different pairs of high heels to wear during the concert
which includes her song "Red High Heels," about women's relationship with shoes
and she wants her female fans to wear high heels to the concert.
