alan 1st concert tour -voice of you- in TOKYO 2010.01.24

Well it?s finally here ? Alan?s first live concert and it was definitely worth the wait!!! Singing a mixture of songs from both her debut (Song of Earth) and more recent albums (My Life) Alan sets the stage alight with her utterly fantastic voice. She sounds note perfect, exactly as she sounds on her CD, if not better!!! There is no chorography, no fleet of dancers, only a couple of costume changes and the stage is small and intimidate but despite not having all the bling and extravagance that other performers have Alan puts on a wonderful and truly touching performance. She starts off with her J Pop style tracks?. highlights including the club style hit Are You Ready, which really gets the audiences fired up!!!! She then has a beautiful costume change into a Tibetan look and performs her Tibetan/ Chinese influenced tracks that show off her incredible voice and her signature wail? her live performance of Nobody Knows But Me was breathtaking!!!!! Then after another costume change she treats us to her epic songs from Red Cliff and also a solo on that traditional instrument she plays ?. I don?t know what it?s called but you play it with a bow!!!! She ends with a more relaxed costume change and a encore. As I said before this performance is simple and uncomplicated. At times she is accompanied a string orchestra and a girl?s choir and by this fantastic wooden flute player who really knows how to play!!! But the simplicity of the concert is perfect for Alan because it serves to fully showcase her vast musical talent and her voice, a voice which is in my opinion one of the best voices in the world!!!! For fans of Alan ?. and for any fan of music ?. this concert is a must have in your collection!!!!
