The annual music extravaganza ITE Vocal Xchange returns on Saturday to celebrate the passion and musical talents of Institute of Technical Education (ITE) students.
Close to 100 vocalists and musicians from the three ITE colleges will stage performances in line with the theme, Inspiring Artists.
There will be six groups of performers, and each group will put their unique stamp on songs by artistes who have inspired them.
For instance, there will be an acoustic interpretation of James Brown’s It’s A Man’s Man’s Man’s World (1966), and a rocking rendition of Christina Aguilera and Demi Lovato’s Fall In Line (2018).
Also not to be missed is a version of Stevie Wonder’s iconic Don’t You Worry ’Bout A Thing (1974) and an a cappella medley of classic songs from the 1990s.
With direction by Zaini Tahir and musical direction by Julian Wong, the show is the culmination of a rigorous two-month process, where students are encouraged to learn how to be thinking performers and express their creativity.
