エーミ・リヴァ-ドの歌声は比類のないものである。初めての聴くとき、彼女のデビューCD「Cashmere」は、心を和ませる。混合祖先の子として(ギリシャ・アイリッシュ・フレミッシュ・フレンチ・カナダ)、エーミは熟達した演者です。大学で音楽と演劇を専攻したから、多芸の歌声が彼女の特徴です。卒業後数々の国で演劇に出演しました。「Riverdance on Broadway、Camelot、H.M.S. Pinafore、Into the Woods、The Mystery of Edwin Drood」音楽の革新者として、自分でワンウーマンキャバレーショーを作って、ロンドンの劇場でデビューしました。
普通に、歌っている曲はGreat American Songbook の曲ですが、CDのトラック“Cashmere”は自分の作曲です。そして、カナダでその曲の公演デビューは完売になりました。
キャリーアの初めに、東京ディズニー・シーは彼女に”芸能人”という仕事を提供した。日本の暮らし(文化・人間関係・食物等)はすごく面白いので、東京ディズニーランドが新しい契約を提供した時、エーミはチャンスに飛びつきました。その仕事で、いろんな演劇に出演しました。(ディズニー・シー:Encore、
Telato-Miracosta Summer
Party、The Sounds of Christmas
ディズニーランド:The Horseshoe Roundup、Peco's and Goofy's
Frontier Revue )
しばらくして、作曲家と音楽のディレクター、デーヴィド・ダウンズに紹介され、彼のミュージカル「ケールティク・ウーマン」に入って、いろんな国で公演しました。その上、“Celtic Woman-A Christmas Celebration”というムービーも全世界にテレビ放送される。
現在彼女は、2枚目のアルバムを制作中ですが、ファンにメッセージを伝えたい、「皆さんがデビューCD“Cashmere”をサポートしてくれて、ありがとうございました。次のアルバムは、すべて皆さんのおかげで。」 |
Amy Rivard has a voice like no other. Upon first
listening to “Cashmere,” one will be soothed by the silky tones of her voice. This
accomplished performer of Greek, Irish, Flemish and French Canadian ancestry has
performed all over the world in shows such
as Riverdance on Broadway, Camelot, H.M.S. Pinafore, Into the Woods and The Mystery of Edwin
Drood. What
is unique about Amy is the
versatility and tone of her voice, thanks to the training she received while getting her
Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree in Musical Theatre. She is a creator and an
innovator, which is evident in her one woman cabaret show on the 6 Star Cruiseline Silver Sea and at the Old Vic and Cafe de Paris in London, England. Amy took this creativity to a new level with
her debut album “Cashmere.” Accustomed to singing songs
from the Great American Songbook, Amy wrote
the title track on the album and debuted it to sold out shows at the prestigious Top O the
Senator in Toronto and The Top Hat Supper Club in Windsor.
Early in her career, Amy was offered a job to work at Disney’s water based theme park in Tokyo, Disney Sea. Amy loved it, thanks to the culture, people
and certainly the food. So,
when offered
a new contract at Tokyo Disneyland, she jumped at the chance to stay in Japan a little longer. While there, she could be seen in several productions
including “Encore, Telato-Miracosta Summer Party and The Sounds of Christmas” at Tokyo Disney Sea and The Horseshoe Roundup and
Peco's and Goofy's Frontier Revue at Tokyo Disneyland. Later on Amy was introduced to composer/creator
and musical director, David Downes, who was bringing his new show "Celtic Woman"
to Tokyo’s Orchard Hall. She was asked to join their world tour and began her
career with "Celtic
Woman." Soon,
she will
be seen on “Celtic Woman-A Christmas Celebration” which will air
on TV stations worldwide this Christmas. Amy is currently writing new music for her next
album and thanks all
of her amazing fans
for their support and says, “Thank you for your support and love of "Cashmere." My
next album is all thanks to you!!!” |
