JAKARTA - Yovie Widianto will hold a concert titled 'Billion Songs Confest'. The concert will feature Yovie & His Friends for fans at the Jakarta Convention Center on May 3.

Yovie Widianto himself revealed that there would be a figure of the late Carlos Saba who appeared with the Kahitna group at the concert "Yovie Widianto: Billion Songs Confest".

"Later on the 3rd, we will still sing with Carlo in several numbers. I can't imagine what the visuals will be because the Carlo is no longer there, but we are singing together there. Until now, it is still the hardest," said Yovie Widianto to the media crew after a joint training session in Kuningan Jakarta, Monday.

Yovie explained that although the upcoming concert is a fun and proud thing because it has been the first stage since the COVID-19 pandemic, it cannot be denied that the Kahitna extended family still feels deep sadness over Carlo Saba's departure on April 19.

According to Yovie, the absence of the late Carlo Saba at this training session was so felt that he and his colleagues had to focus on preparing for the upcoming "Billion Songs Confest" concert.

He revealed that the late Carlo was a perfectionist who often thought about not only songs, but also the selection of movements when appearing on stage. So, it feels like something is missing, Yovie continued, when no one is 'wrinkled' to discuss it all during a joint training session.

"We are very worried, when we were singing together we continued to remember Carlo, it was dangerous. There were several incidents during training yesterday," he recalled, quoted by ANTARA, Monday, May 1.

Meanwhile, vocalist Kahitna Mario Ginanjar said that the presence of the late Carlo Saba had an important meaning for Kahitna so far. However, at the concert later, he hopes that there will be no more tears of grief for the late Carlo but crying of pride.

"Right now maybe we are not sad, we have given up everything. The tears are more because we are proud and emotional because we have been on the same stage with a Carlo Saba," said Mario, who personally dedicated the upcoming concert to the figure of his best friend.
