Reviews
Having [Kenneth’s] piece as the concert opener drove home an important message – that young Singaporean composers are well on their way towards creating music worthy of being presented alongside other international works.
…exciting and refreshing… its stabbing choral rhythms and later a smooth rich passage with deep resonant basses were distinctly novel and certainly made me sit up and listen.
… an original and harmonically engaging arrangement of [a] perennial favourite…
a sweet and gently lilting setting of Ave Regina Caelorum… it builds pleasingly to allow the choir to produce a full sound…
