Birdsongs & Other Pieces  - The Music & Lyrics of Marc CHAN Yew Jin
With The Reverie String Quartet - Clement LIM (violin), WONG Yeang Chuan (guitar), Tracy CHIA (alto), Nadia TAN (soprano), Dawn WONG (Alto).
"Birdsongs & Other Pieces" is the debut concert of young Singaporean composer and lyricist Marc CHAN Yew Jin. The title piece, a fusion between the classical art song and musical theatre, is a song cycle that celebrates the most enviable aspect of birds - flight. And coincident with that idea is the idea of freedom. Some of the songs are settings of text by various poets, such as Maya Angelou and Alfian Sa'at. The other songs that complete the cycle have original lyrics by Marc. The evening will also see the premiere of instrumental works written in the past year. These include a suite of three pieces for toy piano, a romance for violin and piano, and four nocturnes for guitar.
4 Aug 2001     7.30pm     SPH Auditorium, Young Musicians' Society, 54 Waterloo Street (beside Singapore Art Museum)
Tickets at S$11 each (concession for students at S$10) available at all TicketCharge outlets. Call (65) 296 2929 or click HERE! For more information about the concert, please e-mail Marc at toypianist@yahoo.com.sg
