Date: 25 Jul 2009
Time: 8pm – 10.30pm

In this celebration of Singapore’s very own musical talent, there is something for every ardent fan.

Colourful, nostalgic and inspiring all at the same time, this music showcase connects you to the who’s who of the local music scene. Here, you can learn about how the careers of some of our most beloved artistes took off, catch valuable footage of the yester-years or listen to their stories and interviews. Beside saluting veterans of old and current musicians hailing from genres such as rock, jazz, R&B and even the many dizzying offshoots of popular music, we will also honour the memory of those who have passed on.

Of course, no celebration is complete without having your favourite artistes charm you with their ‘live’ music. Be captivated by Cultural Medallion maestro, Iskandar Ismail, as well as Wendi Koh, Rahimah Rahim, John Molina and Alemay Fernandez. Or jive to the beat of Hadi formerly from Dog Bone, Jack and Rai from E.I.C and guitar virtuoso and singer extraordinaire Paul Ponnudorai . There are also many artistes such as Clemente Chow , Melissa Tham, Faridah Dollah, Richard Jackson, Jat Ali and Affendi Sahid. So come on down and join the celebration of Singapore’s varied and vibrant soundscape!

Admission is free. Entry is only for the first 1,200 people on a first-come, first-served basis due to limited seating capacity.
