This beautiful performance happened more than a month ago, but I still want to post it here anyway.
The extremely talented Charice Pempengco is given a star turn at Celine Dion’s concert at the Madison Square Garden.
Ms. Dion displays a very generous and humble heart in letting Charice take center stage while she stayed in the background during the high points of the song. God bless her!
A beautiful rendition of “Because You Loved Me“:

The New York Post’s Dan Aquilante gave this very favorable review:
The Charice segment was the night’s brightest moment. The teen was able to blast notes with Celine-like power, but she was also able to get in touch with the song’s emotions.

And Jon Caramanica of The New York Times had this to say:
They performed “Because You Loved Me,” though Ms. Dion mostly stayed out of the way as Ms. Pempengco explored the song’s heretofore unheard rougher edges, with ample gesticulations and melisma. As Ms. Pempengco brought the crowd to its feet, Ms. Dion struck poses behind her: awestruck wonder, heartfelt empathy, ambient triumph.
