RGS String Ensemble (RGSE) presents: Iridescence

Welcome to RGSE’s concert page! We are thrilled to announce the return of our biennial concert and introduce you to our 2024 showcase, “Iridescence”. Join us for an afternoon that promises to be nothing short of magical with collaborative performances and mesmerising tunes! Mark your calendars for 25 May and see you then!

25 May 2024, Saturday, 4.30pm.

Approximately 70 minutes with no intermission.

Registration will begin at 3.50pm. As the auditorium doors will open at 4.10pm, please be seated in the Auditorium by 4.20pm. Latecomers will only be admitted at suitable junctures.

Kindly note that all audience members for the concert are required to have a valid e-ticket.

Joining us to perform “Suite from Oklahoma! and The Sound of Music” this evening are two partners, both of whom our CCA has worked with since 2022.

Heartstrings. This musical volunteer group teaches children from low-income families how to play the violin for free. In 2022, the String Ensemble raised $4725 through our concert “Perfect Cadence”; the funds allowed beneficiaries to register for violin examinations and to purchase instruments and string accessories for the group. We are delighted to have seven of them performing with us this year!

Kuo Chuan Presbyterian Primary School (KCPPS). Our partnership with KCPPS extends beyond performances, as the CCA has engaged KCPPS through conducting music outreach assembly programmes at their school campus in 2022 and 2023. These sessions include engaging talks and performances focused on classical music and film music, enriching the students' understanding and appreciation of these art forms. Joining us at Iridescence are two upper primary students.

By performing together at our 2024 concert, we hope to be able to continue fostering a love for music in these students.

Flash photography will not be allowed during the performance.

Please note that photographs and videos of patrons may be taken at this event by our official photographers and may be used in our publicity material. Attendance at the concert will be taken as an agreement to the above.

Due to very limited parking space, only RGS staff and parents of performers can be issued with parking labels for parking on the school campus. If you are driving and have not received a car park label, please park at the open air car parks located at Blocks 113-115 Lorong 1 Toa Payoh OR Block 207 Toa Payoh North. Both car parks are located opposite our campus and are a short 5-minute walk away.
