Sunday Spectrum: Sky Ingram - reviewed in poetry


Sky Show Spectacular by Linh

Sunday afternoon can become dull and bring boredom
but you can make it exciting by attending Sunday Spectrum.
It's a series of concerts that always succeeds to bring us
a variety of talented and brilliant singers.

One performer that is among the best in her field
is soprano Sky Ingram whose successful future is sealed.
She'll surely make a prolific performer and Adelaide proud,
as well as a favourite among the local crowd.

In a concert themed 'Animation of Life' and colour,
Sky performed so expressively like no other.
Her Disney medley of comedy and animation
brought laughter, hope and inspiration.

Disney favourites including Hakuna Matata and Be Our Guest
had the audience awestruck and impressed.
Although this was the centrepiece of the show,
Sky had opera arias and musical theatre gems to bestow.

In Handel's beautiful aria from 'Giulio Cesare', Piangero la sorte mia,
Sky made the dignity and depth of feeling of Cleopatra clear.
Another Handel highlight was Care Selve, from 'Atlanta'
a special song dedicated to Rae Cocking,a friend and mentor.

Other notables icluded Mix Tape, a song of comedy, love and fun,
an entralling rendition of 'The Pirates of Penzance's Poor Wandering One,
also Show Me from 'My Fair Lady' brought smiles
as Sky sang and danced among the audience and along the aisles.

Praise must go to pianist extraordinaire Margaret Lambert
who accompanied Sky throughout with playing so superb.
Another successful performance from Sky is an indication
of a bright future for a soprano of class and sophistication.
