Despite her busy schedule as an active member of the Black and White Movement, Leah Navarro still had a few hours to spare with the scholars and impart bits of advice that could help them on their upcoming Gala Performance Night. Being a famous singer, it was indeed admirable to catch her sitting in front of the scholars and sharing some tips on enhancing their stage performances.
Though the weather wasn’t really cooperative, the lesson pushed through. To start her discussion, she asked the scholars to identify the singers they personally find impressive on stage. Christian shared his own opinion first, and he dropped the name of Michael Jackson. According to the Small Boy Wonder, aside from his idol’s voice, his extraordinary dance moves added extra points to his total stage presence. Apple, on the other hand, cited Barbara Streisand for her undeniable wit on stage and effortless performances. Gary V’s attention grabbing posture and overwhelming faith every time he is on stage made him Miguel’s top choice.
Based on the scholars’ personal quantification of a good stage performance, Leah cued her actual discussion on the subject matter. She was pleased that most scholars have keen eyes for details in terms of evaluating performances, because in their own points of view, they already grasped the idea of keeping the stage presence alive. To further strengthen her discussion, one by one, she pointed out the basic points to remember in gaining stage presence, starting form the entrance up to the last note of the song. In the said discussion, she also highlighted the importance of coming in a performance prepared physically, emotionally and mentally.
