Showcase

Programme Synopsis Folk songs from the ASEAN states, namely, Singapore, Malaysia, Cambodia, Indonesia, Philippines and Thailand, will be featured in soundscapes that demonstrate the various timbral qualities reminiscent of the individual country states. Amongst the performers, the classical guitar in particular will render instrumental excerpts and educate students on the melodic and timbral qualities of this particular instrument. Coupled with backing tracks, informative narrations and friendly dialogue with the students, the programme will seamlessly integrate education and music and feature the lesser-known music from the ASEAN countries performed in a contemporary style. With this new approach, this programme hopes to expose young students to the music and instrumental sounds of ASEAN and empower them to explore this genre in their own music-making activities in school. Program Repertoire Selections: -Music from Cambodia - Sarika Keo Euy -Music from Thailand - Loy Krathong -Music from Philippines - Tinikling -Music from Timor Leste - Mai fali è -Finale: Music from the Malay Archipelago - Rasa Sayang There will also be an Audience Participation segment in the form of a QUIZ.
