SUMMARY:Rediscovering Chinese Music:  A Tribute to Singapore’s Chinese Orchestra Music Pioneers
DESCRIPTION:As part of SG60 celebrations\, Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre (SCCC) will present Rediscovering Chinese Music on 24 August 2025. First presented digitally in 2022 during the COVID-19 pandemic\, this meaningful concert will be performed live this time to commemorate the passion\, resilience\, and artistry of our pioneers in the Chinese orchestral music scene in Singapore during the 1950s to the 1970s. \nDuring a period with few resources and limited access to scores\, these early musicians displayed the spirit of perseverance and dedication through transcribing music by ear\, learning from recordings and attempting their own arrangements. The concert seeks to honour this legacy by reviving the spirit and sounds of a generation that laid the foundation of Singapore’s Chinese orchestral music scene. \nThe concert will feature three generations of Chinese orchestra musicians performing on the same stage\, including members from the 1970s iteration of the independent ensemble\, Chang Chun Chinese Orchestra\, such as Tng Kin Seng and Choo Boon Chong\, both of whom have served as principal or associate principal players with Hong Kong Chinese Orchestra; current and former members of Singapore Chinese Orchestra; as well as a new generation of outstanding young musicians. This homecoming concert with a multi-generational line-up not only embodies professional excellence\, but also symbolises the continued passing down of Chinese orchestral music from veterans to the young. \nThe concert’s repertoire will include classic works which were widely performed and beloved in that era\, including ensemble pieces\, instrumental solos and vocal performances. Audiences can look forward to nostalgic favourites such as Joyous Celebration\, Song of Joy\, Spring Water Flowing and Scenery of Guilin. Each work has been meticulously arranged or transcribed by Phoon Yew Tien\, one of Singapore’s foremost Chinese music composers and scholars. \nConcert producer Mr Phoon Yew Tien said\, “We hope that this concert will allow more people to gain a deeper understanding of the Chinese orchestral music scene in this region during the 1950s to 1970s. To recreate the experience of the past more accurately\, this concert not only strives for authenticity in performance but also deliberately emulates the programming style of Chinese orchestral concerts during that era.” \nTickets are available on SISTIC at S$20 (including GST and booking fee) from 21 July 2025 (10.00am) to 24 August 2025 (6.00pm)\, with early bird discount of 30% from 21 July 2025 (10.00am) to 28 July 2025 (11.59pm). \nFrom 29 July 2025 to 24 August 2025 (6.00pm)\, PAssion Card\, SAFRA\, HomeTeamNS\, and merewards members can also enjoy a 20% discount. SCCC EDM Subscribers* can enjoy 25% off tickets while SCCC Culture Partners (SCO and Esplanade) can enjoy 10% off tickets. \nFor more information\, please visit their website. \n\n* Subscribe to SCCC EDM at www.singaporeccc.org.sg or singaporen.sg \n\nImage: Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre

SUMMARY:Moving Mountain 移山
DESCRIPTION:Moving Mountain is a reflective performance blending live music\, poetic storytelling\, and sound meditation. \nA modern retelling of an ancient folktale\, it follows a humble old man who begins digging a mountain\, not to conquer it\, but to change what is possible. Told through the eyes of a bird who witnesses generations come and go\, this intimate experience honours the unseen resilience of our elders and the quiet strength passed through families. Rooted in the lived realities of Singapore’s early migrant communities\, the performance draws parallels between myth and memory. Featuring the tender sounds of the ruan and healing vibrations of the singing bowls\, the piece invites audiences to slow down\, remember\, and reconnect with the past\, each other\, and the stories we carry. \n《移山》是一场融合现场音乐、诗意叙述与声音冥想的静心演出。故事取材自古老传说，一位老人开始移山，不为征服，而是为了改变可能的方向。透过一只代代传承故事的鸟儿，让观众感受到长辈们无声的坚韧与家庭中流转的力量。演出亦根植于新加坡早期移民群体的真实经历，在神话与记忆之间建立桥梁。阮与颂钵交织出的声音，唤起内在记忆，邀请我们放慢脚步，凝视过去，重拾彼此的连结。 \nNote: Performance is in English. \nEvent Dates: 11 & 12 July 2025\nVenue: Blackbox\, 42 Waterloo Street\nDetails & Ticketing: here\n_________________________________________________ \nStand a chance to win a PRIVATE SOUND BATH Session \nTotal of 3 lucky winners will stand to win a 75-minute one-to-one session (worth $110) and be treated to a personalised wellness experience dedicated for you! \nExclusively for ticket holders.

SUMMARY:Navigating Conflict: Mastering Difficult Conversations at Work (FREE Lunch and Learn Virtual Event!)
DESCRIPTION:How do you handle conflict when it arises in the workplace? In this virtual one-hour talk\, we will equip you with essential conflict-resolution skills to approach challenging conversations with confidence and empathy. We’ll break down techniques for de-escalating tense situations and ensuring that discussions remain productive and respectful. Discover how to turn disagreements into opportunities for growth and collaboration\, rather than confrontation. By understanding the dynamics of conflict and communication\, you’ll learn how to foster healthier\, more effective relationships with colleagues. \nI’m offering these lunchtime talks for free because I’ve seen the struggles of individuals\, especially clients who have difficulty attending evening events due to family\, work\, and other commitments. I believe in making personal and professional growth accessible to everyone\, regardless of their busy schedules. These lunchtime sessions are my way of giving back to the community. I’m also seeking sponsors who share these values and are committed to positively impacting people’s lives. \nThis is a free virtual talk lasting one hour. The recording will be available for 30 days to those who pre-register. Afterward\, the recording will be available for purchase\, and the slides will not be downloadable or for sale. Those wishing to receive AASECT CE credits can pay for them. You can type into the chat box during the session\, and we will mute everyone except during the Q&A session\, time permitting. Feel free to turn your video on or off. \nThis program meets the requirements of the American Association of Sexuality Educators\, Counselors\, and Therapists (AASECT) and is approved for 1 CE credit. These CE credits may be applied toward AASECT certification and renewal of certification. Completion of this program does not ensure or guarantee AASECT certification.
