Synopsis

Term has started and class is now in session! Sit down at your desks and be treated to a lecture by organist Phoon Yu and acclaimed Singaporean band Lorong Boys as they teach you all about the true meaning of music history, Singaporean style. From Bach to the Beatles, Strauss to friendly swans (!!), and even buying an organ off Taobao, there will be something for everyone to enjoy. Just remember to take notes for your mugging session later.
