Contemporary music figures strongly in the
repertoire of the young Singapore Chinese Orchestra. They claim to have the "Nanyang"
flavour, giving the many original scores commissioned by the orchestra their
chance to shine. Neither the new or the old of China is neglected in this music
box that, while winding the spring of refined experimentalism in Reminiscence
of March and The Celestial Web, strives to let the origins of sound
intensify.
