Frances Yip Vocal
Frances Yip developed her love of singing at a very young age. Her talent was discovered after she appeared on the HKTVB programme, Sharp Nite, in 1969 and she was signed up as a recording artist and television singer soon after. In 1974, she became the first Asian singer to sign a contract with EMI for international territories. It also marked the beginning of her professional career in entertainment. Over the last 45 years, she has released more than 80 solo albums, one of which was released in several languages in five countries simultaneously under the EMI label. Her signature song, Theme from The Bund, has been regarded as the most easily recognizable CantoPop song among the global Chinese community, and was on the Top 10 list of “Best Songs of the Century” in China.
