Hey hi Charlie here, I had the most delightful experience of meeting Melvina Major at Chartwell Caltex Service Station a few years back whilst working on the forecourt. A very humble and genuine energy about her loved meeting and chatting with her.

I find myself seeking out this video quite regularly. It is such a delight to watch and listen to the interaction between these two singers.  The sound is quite good considering it was recorded with a small handycam from the balcony at the back of the church. But most of all it gives me pleasure and I am very grateful to those who recorded it and made it available for us to see and hear.

Dame Malvina is comparable to Dame Kiri for sure. That is why they are Dames. Dame Shirley, Dame Joan, Dame Julie and Dame Elisabeth are other greats.

@eoarwyn At a public event since the start of her International careeer, yes I think so. Those of us who were there to hear it were privileged, it was very exciting. Dame Malvina too is a very fine singer and tutor.

KatherineXIX. What is classical manner? Or do you mean operatic. Dame Malvina Major is an acclaimed international soprano from nz, she is currently Professor of Music at Canterbury University in Christchurch, and she is also one of Hayley's personal trainers. If anyone knows how to sing in a "classical manner" I would have thought it would be Dame Malvina. If she is happy with the the way Hayley sings then so am I.

I think Hayley's technique works just fine. She has made record sales in several countries and is doing quite well. I don't see why people leave harsh comments about her singing. And also, this was close to the time where she had bronchitis..
