A group of young multi-national resident singers are hoping to bring their unique voices to audiences across Dubai during this DSS. ‘Dubai Voices’, as they call themselves, is a choir of 16 talented performers across nationalities, cultures, and languages, and essentially embodies Dubai’s multicultural spirit. From June 25th to August 14th, the group will perform in various shopping malls giving mall goers the opportunity to listen to a select group of trained singers.
Lead by Bryan Furtado, a singer, actor, dancer, music teacher, and the musical director of the group, Dubai Voices will be performing three different acts during DSS weekends featuring interpretations of Broadway musicals, classic pop, jazz, world music, and other popular songs.
Dubai Voices will get on stage in Deira City Centre for their first performance on June 25 and mesmerize crowds for three days till June 27. The three acts will be performed at 6:40, 7:45, and 9:30 respectively.
As a multicultural choir, Dubai Voices will perform songs in English, Arabic, Tagalog, and Persian. Act 1 includes musicals such as the self titled musical That’s Entertainment, Circle of Life from Lion King, and Dancing Queen from Mamma Mia. Act 2 features pop songs such as Sing by the Carpenters, Shak Bhak Shakabit by Nancy Ajram, and Does Your Mother Know by ABBA. Act 3 features songs such as Cruisin by Gwyneth Paltrow and Huey Lewis, Beat Box – an original composition, popular Spanish number Desperado, Halla Vay Vay – a Persian and Arabic song, and Song of the Emirates – originally composed by an Australian resident in Dubai in the 1970s and reworked for the show by Bryan Furtado.
