OMG OMG OMG! Funny thing is that my family wants to go on vacation. I hope I don't end up being away from SG just when the boys are here! Oh dear.

Anyway, I wonder if it will be like the April 2010 PH minitour with a shortened set list, since it's two shows in one day. It's not yet in the Esplanade calendar nor in Sistic.com.sg where they usually sell the tickets. Tickets closest to the stage is usualy upwards of S$88.

Yes, that's exactly what I think, because I highly doubt they would ask the boys to produce a full concert twice a day, so it's going to be like Manila 2010, two "showcase" one hour each, allowing to double the people received without exhausting the boys :)

Seeing that there is not yet information about tickets on the "Esplanade" site, I called them by phone (it's free from France), a nice Lady checked on her system and she had nothing yet about Libera (I had to spell it :lol: sure they will quickly know this name ;) ).
The lady sent me to sistic.com, but no information either at this moment :)

On the official announce it's written : "we plan to visit Japan and Singapore".
Do you think this is understandable as there will be no other country visited during the tour ?

Can we book the planes and Hotels, or are other public concerts still possibly to be announced ?

I hope they fill the two shows. Esplanade is the premier venue in SG for holding choral concerts. It looks like two big durian shells from the outside. It's also right smack in the middle of Singapore's CBD, with an amazing view of Singapore's skyline. I've been inside the Esplanade Concert Hall and the Recital Studio before, but not yet to the Esplanade Theatre. Apparently, it has Singapore's biggest stage and has a seating capacity of 1,942.

There's a nice link where you can check what the view will be like from your seat. http://www.esplanade.com/stageview/theatre.htm

Sing-a-pore of the glory, in stable cold and dark came the miracle...

Nice venue, hope they fill it. Will be interesting to see them in a new country and if the audience will be receptive to Libera like they seem to be in other asian countries.

Alright, the venue looks terrific. Doesn't really look it can hold thousands of people but it still looks great. Great to make a DVD Concert! :D Can somebody make a petition on that? I'm sure we'll all sign. :lol:

Between Singapore & Japan, they can always make a pit stop in the Philippines. But I sincerely hope they push through with China too. And Euro tour later 2012. Libera music should play all over the world. People don't know what they're missing.

The Esplanade Theatre seats 1,942 x 2 concerts = lots of people that will get to see Libera for the 1st time! :D

"Spring tour update: We will now be performing in the Esplanade Theatre in Singapore on Friday 6th April and Saturday 7th April".

That's from Libera's FB. I wonder if they're gonna make it a full show now.

This is a Great news !! :D Thank you very much carina_gino20 :)

We may indeed expect two full concert :)
The venue is definitively too big to hosts only 1 hour show cases like in the Philippines in Spring 2010
