The Roving Singers

Still high on singing...after my last entry I spent the rest of yesterday singing my old repertoire, till it was time to hit the road to drive to my rehearsal.

This morning I woke up and continued listening to Renee & Bryn on their Under The Stars concerts...

Speaking of concert, will spend my off-rehearsal night at Bangsar Actors Studio listening to one of KL's most active music and song people -- The Young KL Singers. The amazing group of people I know who `ta pau' their creative, casting and production work...yes, am talking about singer who also complete their own props, costumes, poster art work, front of house work, publicity, you name it...self-sufficient artists la.

I became friends with them by having the honour to guest sing at their first two concerts back in 2002, thanks to my coach
who introduced me to the group's leader Susanna Saw...we rehearsed about twice and then the show was on. I went back to sing for them twice after that -- always a lot of fun :)

Wanna check out these happy shinny singing folks for yourself? Read Star's story on them...

TASA Young KL Singers
Presents

Goin' Home
TASA Young KL Singers (YKLS), winner of the Kakiseni Audience Choice Award for Music at the BOH Cameronian Arts Awards 2003, is set to soar again with their upcoming production titled, " Goin' Home", which will be a celebration of the folk song heritage from the British Isles and North America.

"Goin' Home " will be a warm journey through time, rediscovering the cultural heritage of two of the world's most well-known diverse communities, its roots and origins. The show will appeal to audiences of all ages as they would be able to relate to the projection of this diversity - some by ancestry, others through songs which they grew up listening to or are learning from their elders. These songs relate to personal experiences about childhood, growing up, love, courtship and marriage, life and death.

In "Goin' Home ", YKLS will present classics such as "Hush Little Baby ", "Loch Lomond", "Down by the Sally Gardens " and "Home Sweet Home", "Auld Lang Syne", "Clementine" amongst other heartwarming and festive folk tunes. The songs and lively movements presented are sure to touch the hearts of our audience and get them tapping their feet to the rhythm - regardless of age, culture or belief.

This show is one not to be missed - so be sure to join YKLS for a memorable celebration of life and as we embark upon this voyage together, we will discover that it comes full circle, a beautiful journey that is homeward bound…
