Here's our performance of "The Road Ahead" by Linying and Evan Low arranged by our very own Mr Mohamad Rasull and conducted by Mr Daniel Yiau.
Performed on 7 August 2022 Beautiful Sunday series, "Singapore! A Musical Celebration". The performance also celebrates 10 years of our local composers initiative!

The band arrangement by Mohamad Rasull of this song was suggested by the late Adrian Tan, previous Music Director of the Singapore Wind Symphony, and is dedicated to his memory.

Huge appreciation to Esplanade - Theatres on the Bay for inviting us to the monthly Beautiful Sunday series.

🎶 In the Spring at the Time When Kings Go Off to War - David R. Holsinger 🎶
The piece uses a variety of musical idioms, from diatonic to “sound mass,” aleatoric to measured, vocal to synthetic. Holsinger has intertwined a tonal picture of the chaos, pathos, triumph, grief, faith, and tragedy in this composition.

Come hear for yourself compelling parts with singing and voices which adds some colours to the piece 👀👂

🎶 Divertimento - Oliver Waespi 🎶
Catch this diverse and exciting piece - Divertimento by Swiss composer, Oliver Waespi, which consists of 4 contrasting movements.

From an opening overture, it transits into a calm and meditative atmosphere with the oboe opening the movement. Next up is an upbeat Procession resembling a “second line” procession from New Orleans, with upbeat rhythms inviting everyone to dance in the streets. Hoedown, an American folk dance, is a fast and vivacious movement and ends the piece on a high note.
