Bachata”, is one of the new young voices of the new generation of Dominican<br />
vocalists. Chantel took her first steps in show business at age 9 through singing<br />
and demonstrating her exceptional artistic disposition. Her father, Leo Collado,<br />
has been of great influence on her career as an artist. In 2005 Chantel attended<br />
the Ontario Conservatory of Music to learn vocals and in 2006, she joined John<br />
Robert Powers to learn technique and vocals. She placed 3rd in Solo and 3rd<br />
place in Duet competition at the National Vocal Competition in Los Angeles,<br />

genre face a particular challenge. She accepts this challenge demonstrating<br />
that when quality, great musical arrangements and a good voice is<br />
accompanied by teamwork, anything is possible.<br />
