About This Vendor
Madz Alcoy is the daughter of the international jazz artist/ guitarist Richard Alcoy aka "Ric Ickard" who is currently based in Paramount, California. Her mother used to be a choir master in Manila. Her voice is a product of years of training through singing in local parish choirs. Madz consistently bagged the First Place Award in all singing competitions she joined, including “Tuklas Tinig” in Das Mariñas, Cavite, “North Springville Singing Competition” and Cuba Bar Videoke Challenge. She gained most of her experiences in singing by joining Coro dela Reina, a choir performing a repertoire ranging from the renaissance to the present. The group has participated and won in several competitions, wherein all along, Madz was one of the Sopranos. The group has performed with the Philippine Philharmonic Orchestra, the Philippine Madrigal Singers, and other celebrities. Since 2009, Madz has been performing in numerous functions, corporate, and prestigious events which opened doors to her in hosting. This wasn’t a handful since she had been an “English as a Second Language” instructor for years.
