Perhaps the name Charis Pempengko is unfamiliar to you. However, Oprah Winfrey, the most prominent TV host of our day, once dubbed this little Filipino singer “the most talented girl in the world.” And trust me when I say she understands what she’s talking about.

When Charis was 14, the entire world knew about her. The phenomenal success of her YouTube video made this possible. David Foster, a well-known producer and songwriter, saw the young vocalist and took her under his wing.

Foster even accompanied Charis personally at one of the gigs. And the superb rendition of the immensely intricate song “All By Myself” that evening stunned both him and the crowd.
