Our time on earth is but a speck of dust when viewed through the lenses of infinite time.
MUSA The Collective invites you to reflect on our human experience through eight musical movements in one multisensory evening of inspiration.
Reflections is an interdisciplinary music performance centred around the reality of life that everything in it is ultimately impermanent. Featuring life stories, the intimate and paradoxical nuances of our lives are captured and put on display, illuminating a complex truth that is interwoven with contrasts and contradictions.
Rooted in traditional Chinese music and possessing a contemporary style, MUSA is a trio comprising twins Clara TAN Su-Min (zhongruan) and Sophy TAN Su-Hui (guzheng), and composer/arranger Dayn NG. They are joined in this concert—conceptualised together with sound artist and multimedia designer Mervin WONG, playwright Isaiah Christopher LEE and voice-over artist Andy PANG — by an ensemble featuring keyboards, erhu, viola, cello and percussion.
