Synopsis

Some 22 billion kilometres away in space, Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto No. 2 lies among other earthly sounds and music on the Golden Record, carried by the Voyager space probes since they left Earth in 1977. Bach’s legacy is humanity’s future. Likewise, Singapore’s young shining star of the violin, Chloe Chua. See her live on stage with SSO violinist Ye Lin in the universally loved Double Violin Concerto. A present from a small, distant world, a token of our music, thoughts and feelings – a gift of music to the universe.

This concert is dedicated to the late Dr. Goh Keng Swee, founding patron of the SSO.

This concert was recorded at the Esplanade Concert Hall on 4 Feb 2021.

FORMAT: SISTIC Live stream on 21 May 2021. Concert begins at 8pm with countdown lobby open at 7.30pm. Viewable until 4 Jun 2021, 8pm.
