SYAFINAZ SELAMAT
A familiar face in the local classical and contemporary music scenes, Syafinaz Selamat is a music degree graduate from MARA University of Technology. She has been under the tutelage of Siti Chairani Proehoeman (voice) and Muzaffar Abdullah (pianoforte), veterans in the Malaysian music education and classical performance scene.
Syafinaz is a lyrical soprano, whose performance repertoire includes arias for operas from composers such as Mozart, Puccini, Bellini, Delibes and Verdi. She was chosen to play the role of the soprano solo in the Carl Offs "Carmina Burana" with 100 choir members and the National Symphony Orchestra of Malaysia, conducted by reputed Australian conductor Roland Peelman.
She's also a prominent singer and host of several musical entertainment shows. Her career achievements as a singer include a Gold Medal in the R&B/Pop/Rock/Conternporary category during the World Championships of Performing Arts in Los Angeles in 1999. Additionally, she's been twice nominated in the AIM for Best Female Vocal in an Album.
An experienced entertainer with a strong musical background in voice performance, it is not a surprise when she was repeatedly invited to judge for reality television singing programmes such as "Akademi Fantasia 3", "Akademi Fantasia 4", "Akademi Fantasia 5", "Who Will Win", "Mentor" as well as the voice trainer/music advisor for "Audition II". This will be Syafinaz's second time presiding as official judge for One In A Million, together with Paul Moss.
At the moment Syafinaz is working on her new album. Infusing classical and contemporary music, it is a genre where no Malaysian recording artistes have ever done. It will certainly break the monotony in the Malaysian music industry.
