About this Event

Dr. Syed Ibrahim is a community artist and educator who has spent decades using percussion and group drumming as a genuine force for human connection — in schools, in marginalised communities, in programmes for seniors, and everywhere that rhythm can quietly make a lasting difference. Holding a Master's in Arts Pedagogy from Goldsmiths, University of London and an Honorary Doctorate from American Trinity University, his credentials reflect a life fully committed to the craft and the communities it serves.

Rhythm of Life is the distillation of that journey — and this launch is a chance to hear it straight from the man himself.


Book Launch & Presentation – Dr. Syed Ibrahim shares the story and heart behind Rhythm of Life.

Reflections on a Life in Music – Insights into decades of community work, education, and artistic practice.

Celebration of Community – An evening that honours the people and programmes that shaped the work.

Q&A & Conversation – A chance to engage directly with one of Singapore's most respected community artists.


Join us for an evening that's as much a celebration of community as it is of a book — and of the man whose life's work reminds us that rhythm, at its core, is something we all share.
