    ASEAN PARA GAMES OPENING AND CLOSING CEREMONIES 1 ASEAN PARA GAMES Opening Ceremony 3 December 2015, Singapore Indoor Stadium Closing Ceremony 9 December 2015, Marina Bay Sand 2 OVERVIEW The Opening and Closing Ceremonies of the 8th ASEAN Para Games was directed by the award-winning Creative Director Philip Tan (Philbeat), who led a core creative team of 75 mem- bers. The ceremonies’ carried a bold central message, which is the celebration of human beings’ physical and mental abilities. This is a radical departure from the tone of charity that had hith- erto dominated the disability discourse in Singapore and the re- gion. Philip embedded colleagues with disability into all stages of production. A complex environment of teaching and learning was built into the 2-year production process. Associate Directors worked with other individuals and teams, which included profes- sionals, schools (comprising special education schools, secon- dary and tertiary institutions) and volunteers. 3 IMPACT The Ceremonies generated positive impact to its audiences, par- ticipants, partner institutions, and creative team members. Singa- pore’s Prime Minister called it ‘spectacular’. Together with the suc- cessful run of the Games (‘best ever’ — The New Paper 2015), they are paving the way for a paradigm shift in the disability dis- course in Singapore and the region. Firsts for the Ceremonies include: being beamed live to 3 countries and Youtube to 600 mil- lion in the region and beyond, with live interpretation and live cap- tioning. For a partnering school, the process was ‘exceptional’, letting ‘the status of our students with disabilities soar to great heights in an international platform’ (Metta School).

  • 许环良) Is Perhaps Best Known As the Record Producer Who Launched the Successful Careers of Singapore Singing Artistes Kit Chan ( 陈洁仪), JJ Lin (林俊杰), A-Do ( 阿杜), and BY2
    ARTICLE Billy Koh ( 许 环 良): The Butterfly and Its Dreams by Kong, Kam Yoke , written on 20th August 2010 National Library Board, Singapore Billy Koh, who has helped re-shape the Singapore Chinese pop music scene over the last 25 years, is best known as the record producer who launched the successful careers of Singapore singers Kit Chan, JJ Lin, A-Do and BY2. Considered one of the most instrumental and influential figures in the Singapore music industry, Billy Koh ( 许环良) is perhaps best known as the record producer who launched the successful careers of Singapore singing artistes Kit Chan ( 陈洁仪), JJ Lin (林俊杰), A-Do ( 阿杜), and BY2. As the most recognised face from Ocean Butterflies Music Pte Ltd ( 海蝶音乐私人有限公 司), which Koh co-founded, he had, together with his team, re-shaped the landscape of the Singapore Chinese pop music scene over a span of a quarter of a century, carving a place for itself and creating a brand name that exerts an impact in Asia. In his nearly three-decade-long career, Koh has produced more than 150 albums and is credited for discovering and grooming many top artistes who made it big in Asia. For his contributions to the Singapore music industry, Koh was awarded the Meritorious Award and the Wings of Excellence Award by COMPASS in 2001 and 2005 respectively. It had all begun in 1981. Billy Koh had formed a singing group called The Straw ( 水草三重唱), together with his schoolmates, Koh Nam Seng ( 许南盛) and the late Sunkist Ng ( 黄元成), to participate in the television talent show “Chinese Talentime” ( 《斗歌竞艺》), which was one of the most watched shows then.

    THURSDAY, JUNE 11, 2015 Music LIFE! C9 2000s: Then and now Musicians who lead in the classical scene Paige Lim Over the years, many Singaporean classical musicians who studied abroad have remained over- seas to pursue their careers. Renowned violinist Chan Yoong-Han and pianist Lim Yan are among the rare few who have returned here to develop their careers. And over the past 10 or more years, the pair have made waves in the local classical music scene. Besides being members of popular piano quintet Take 5, both have played as soloists with the Singa- pore Symphony Orchestra and performed in inter- national music festivals. Life! classical music reviewer Chang Tou Liang calls them “two of the most active and busiest classical musicians” in Singapore today. “They are leaders in their fields and figures whom young Singaporean musicians can relate to and emulate,” he says. Both musicians came to prominence in the 2000s after returning to Singapore from their over- seas studies. A graduate from Rice University in the United States in 1995, Chan, 40, was awarded the 2000 Shell-NAC Arts Scholarship by the National Arts Council. He then completed his masters of music at the University of Massachusetts. In 2007, he was appointed concertmaster for the Singapore Festival Orchestra, the resident orches- tra of the Singapore Arts Festival which ended in 2012. Lim, 35, the nephew of well-known conductor Lim Yau, was the first Singaporean to play in the 12th Singapore International Piano Festival in 2005. He made history again when he became the Violinist Chan first Singaporean pianist to perform all five Yoong-Han About Sing50 Beethoven piano concertos in a cycle here in 2012.

    All Rights Reserved, National Library Board, Singapore Nationhood is a composite of many things - shared geography, language, experiences and also the unique culture, dress, dance, myths, music and songs of a people. Every country has its own national anthem, which is revered by its people. Singapore also has its own unique genre of music which has over the years acquired a range of names - "Community Songs", "National Day Theme Songs" and "Singapore Songs". All these songs share something in common. To sing is to celebrate an identity, and these are all songs of joy, sadness, love and memories of happy days and places, reflecting the hopes and aspirations of a people. Their appeal, like any good and timeless piece of music, is one that traverses both time and space. Under the umbrella of the Sing Singapore programme, initiated by the then-Ministry of Communications and Infor­ mation in 1986, many new community songs were composed. A few struck a chord with Singaporeans and were se­ lected to be featured at the annual National Day Parades as part of the Singapore Song medley before the fire­ works. National Day theme songs were first introduced in the mid-1980s beginning with "Count On Me Singapore", featured in the 1986 National Day Parade, coinciding with Singapore's 21st birthday. This album is an eclectic mix of 12 familiar favourites, put together by Cultural Medallion winner Jeremy Monteiro. With his talented band of friends, they have explored various nuances of jazz rhythms - swing, bossa nova and con­ temporary. We hope these pieces will help rekindle pleasant memories and reflections of being Singaporean and being in Singapore - this placAlle w eRights call our home Reserved,.
