A Dash of Nature: Earth, Sky, and the Life Within

The KLPAC Symphonic Band are inviting us to experience nature’s beauty through music in their upcoming concert, “A Dash of Nature: Earth, Sky, and the Life Within.” Under Cheryl Mah's direction, the performance explores Earth’s wonders, featuring compositions by international talents and the world premieres of works by Malaysian composers. From the vibrancy of the forest at night to underwater journeys and mythical mountainscapes, we find out what's in store from Chew Sze Gee, a flautist and the Vice-President of the KLPAC Symphonic Band, and Lawrence Chiu, a composer whose ‘I Wish to Bring You IV’ will make its premiere at this upcoming production.
