SINGAPORE – Six original Singapore classical music compositions will premiere at the opening concert of Festival Puente, which is on at the Chilean port city of Valparaiso from Nov 11 to 16.
The showcase of six Singapore composers’ works came about after the president of the Composers Society of Singapore, Dr Hoh Chung Shih, met the festival’s international coordinator at the Asian Composers League Festival & Conference in New Zealand in 2022.
