The concert was themed "Essentially Italian", and was held at the historic Princes Gate hotel in Rotorua on 13 June 2005.

"O mio babbino Caro" - who could resist !?

Scary Frightman and Agony Bottomjelly

We hired these two to sing "All I ask of you".

Greg Patel, New Zealand's hardest working tenor, in full flight. Greg gives over 300 performances each year, yes, that is not a typo !

Elizabeth Marvelly, a young lady with a future, who joined Gina and Greg for a couple of numbers, and sang solo too !
