Experience classic Chinese texts in a completely new way through elegant Chinese classical music as the Singapore Chinese Orchestra performs specially composed modern musical interpretations of the San Zi Jing (Three Character Classic) and Di Zi Gui (Standards for being a Good Student and Child).
These two classic Chinese texts have traditionally been used to educate young people. The San Zi Jing covers a wide range of topics including ethical and moral values and served as a child's first formal education at home. The Di Zi Gui, based on the teachings of Confucius, is regarded as an essential text for moral education and has been widely used across generations.
Conducted by Maestro Tsung Yeh, this concert features original music written by famous Chinese composer Xu Jian Qiang, melodious voices of the Victoria Junior College and Tanjong Katong Secondary School choirs, students from the Hong Wen School and Nanyang Primary School, as well as vocalist Yu Ji Xing, with narration, interesting anecdotes and stories by established MediaCorp artiste Guo Liang. (Due to personal reasons, Professor Qian Wen Zhong is unable to perform in this concert).
Recommended for six years old and above.
Co-produced by Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay and Singapore Chinese Orchestra
