A Singing Sojourn Down South

My group has been invited to sing in Singapore's Acapella Festival 2007. So, will be heading down south for a couple of days, with three concerts lined up. Not all from the group can make it though, a smaller contingent of 8 members, 3 guys and 5 girls, from our usual line up of 10 will be making the trip down.

Am still coughing, but has gotten slightly better. Here's to hoping it will not disrupt my singing come the concert dates.

Here’s a brief writeup about the festival down south. Singapore definitely has a more active and diverse acapella scene:


SONIC LANDSCAPE - A CAPPELLA FESTIVAL 2007
4th Sep 2007 - 5th Sep 2007

Plus, this year will include for the first time an afternoon show for kids targeting primary and early secondary school kids, giving them an opportunity to experience a live concert.
