Notable Highlights
February Classical Concert: Beethoven & Rachmaninoff Night
Our monthly classical concert series returned with a powerful opening to the year, welcomed by a full and attentive audience.
The evening featured the monumental piano works of Ludwig van Beethoven and Sergei Rachmaninoff, moving between intensity, lyricism, and deep emotional contrast. Performed by Lee Jea Phang (Kuala Lumpur), the recital marked a meaningful return of the series and set a thoughtful tone for the season ahead.
Thank you to everyone who joined us. We look forward to welcoming you at the next concert.
Soundskool Music Scholarship — Classes Begin
Inside the classroom, our Soundskool Music Scholarship students have officially begun their journey.
Students are settling into regular lessons, learning not only notes and rhythms but also how real progress is built through patience, focused practice, and steady guidance from their teachers.
Consistency and long-term learning form the foundation of this program. It is in these early stages that meaningful growth begins.
