If you enjoyed Lea Salonga In Concert on PBS, check out some additional bonus performances that sadly are NOT featured this evening on the Great Performances broadcast including….
Lea's brother Maestro Gerard Salonga conducting the Sydney Symphony Orchestra playing the opening OVERTURE to the concert (before Lea herself takes the stage). The opening OVERTURE features several notable tunes from Lea's legendary career. See if you can recognize any of them,

and
The closing ENCORE dance party with Lea performing a medley of several familiar boyband tunes. This video doesn't feature the FULL MEDLEY but only 2 of the highlighted moments…. a cover of both *NSYNC's TEARIN' UP MY HEART and the Backstreet Boys' I WANT IT THAT WAY. To hear the full medley, be sure to get your copy of the Live Album of this concert.
The Live Album also features a rendition of Salonga singing CHILDREN WILL LISTEN from Into The Woods.
