WARM SUMMER NIGHT DREAMS

Born in Cuba of Spanish origin, Ada de Luque's love for music and singing started as a little girl while listening and singing along with her parents and their friends as they performed classical boleros and Spanish songs accompanied by their guitars.

When she was five years old her family moved to Miami. Without losing touch with her musical heritage, Ada was exposed to a broad spectrum of musical influences, from soul and rock-and- roll to jazz, blues and classical. It was her affinity and love towards classical music which eventually, at age 15, prompted her to start her classical vocal and musical training. After winning several competitions and awards for young opera singers Ada moved to Italy, begining her longtime friendship with the Pavarotti family, including private vocal coaching from the famed tenor himself. Pavarotti has said that Ada has a "beautiful voice with a rich velvety quality."

After performing in operas and concerts in both Italy and Germany, Ada returned to Miami where she had to take care of her mother who had had a severe accident. In Miami Ada became the lead star at the best night club in town at that time, Les Violins Supper Club, garnering rave reviews for both her vocal style and showmanship. The ACCA (Association of Critics and Commentators of America) awarded her as the "Best Female Nightclub Performer" in Florida for three consecutive years. Her success in the nightclub arena continued as she became the premiere Diva of the prestigious Fontaine Bleu Club Tropigala.

During this period, Ada's foray into song writing produced two global hits for the Latin market: "Alma de gitana" and "Te Borrare". This success prompted Ada to continue composing, expanding her style to different genres.

As the new millennium began, a new chapter in Ada's career takes flight, as she starts putting into words and music the personal and spiritual journeys that, while unique to this artist, are themes that are universal to us all.
