On 9 December 2025, we had our 4th major production "Memoirs in Music" at the Esplanade Recital Studio. Evocative acting by and the brilliant soundscape by our musicians brought to life the story of Singapore's success. Through the hardship of our forefathers and the dreams of our young, we hope that the concert touched your hearts with our contemporary interpretation.

We would like to thank Minister of State for Community, Culture and Youth, and Transport Mr Baey Yam Keng for gacing the event.

More photos will be posted soon, and we hope to see you again at our future concerts!

What does it mean to start from scratch? When everything is lost, what gets rebuilt first.

And as a city grows, how do memory, effort, and belief shape what comes next?

𝘍𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘚𝘤𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘤𝘩 by Chen Zhangyi looks at five moments that shaped modern Singapore, from the Bukit Ho Swee fire of 1961 to the construction of Changi Airport.

Introducing our musicians for Memoirs in Music!

The Nanyang Collective is a group of professional local musicians playing instruments originating from a myriad of Asian and western cultures. This unique instrumentation allows for creative and intricate sounds to be produced, bringing a new auditory experience to the audience. Led by Music Director Wong De Li Dedric, the collective does not shy away from experimenting with cross-disciplinary elements such as theatre, whilst seeking out fresh sonance through the performance of new music inspired by Singapore, life and humanity.

What do you notice after the rain? When the crowd is quiet again, what rises to the surface.

And in that quiet, how do you recognise that a major chapter has ended, and that the next steps depend on what we choose to carry forward.

𝘓𝘦𝘨𝘢𝘤𝘺 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘉𝘦𝘺𝘰𝘯𝘥 | 𝘈𝘧𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘙𝘢𝘪𝘯 by Eric Watson follows this shift from release to reflection, from questions to growing confidence.

How do you respond when a moment feels bigger than words?
When the crowd stands together, the weight of the moment pulling everyone into the same pause.
How do you sort through sadness, respect, uncertainty and the feeling that something important is over?

𝘗𝘢𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘉𝘢𝘵𝘰𝘯 by Eric Watson moves through these feelings, from quiet questioning to urgency, from public grief to private emotion, and finally to a sense of acceptance.
