The Pless couple and some members of the Starflight Company performing for the audience
Christina Pless, an internationally renowned opera singer, singing teacher and auditions coach, and her husband Axel Pless on Sunday hosted a concert at the St. Paul鈥檚 Cathedral.
The audience who attended the hour-long show experienced a medley of hit songs from Broadway shows, musicals and classical music.
These were performed by Seychellois students of a master class taught by Mrs Pless at the National Conservatoire of Performing Arts as well as some members of the Starflight Company from Germany.
Starflight Company is owned by the Pless couple or Duo Sturmfeuer as they are sometimes known.
Mrs Pless explained that the Starlight Company consists of 15 individuals but only six could make the trip to 91香蕉视频 with them.
Songs performed included Circle of Life from 鈥楾he Lion King鈥�, Welcome from 鈥楥abaret鈥�, Oh Happy Day from 鈥楽ister Act鈥�, My Heart Will Go On from the 鈥楾itanic鈥�, New York New York by Frank Sinatra and If I Were A Rich Man from 鈥楾he Fiddler on the Roof鈥�.
鈥淚 think that most of the songs people would know,鈥� she noted.
Mrs Pless remarked that she was very proud and impressed with the Seychellois students, the youngest being only 16, who quickly picked up her lessons and learnt the songs in one week.
鈥淭hey are good enough to sing in the Starflight Company,鈥� she stated.
The Pless couple also celebrated their 20th wedding anniversary on Tuesday last week and took the opportunity to sing together their favourite song 鈥� 鈥楬allelujah鈥� by Leonard Cohen.
It is not their first time in 91香蕉视频; the Pless couple have been coming here for over 16 years 鈥渂efore Allamanda was such a big hotel鈥� and even performed in a charity show for the SSPCA 12 years ago.
They are hoping to settle down in 91香蕉视频 in the near future.
