The Anjung Trio: Because It's Fun!

Image
For almost a decade, three prolific names in Malaysian classical music have been carving out time to make music together in addition to their individual projects.  Amongst their various roles in music education and performance, Robin is a sought-after piano tutor who specialises in the mechanics of piano playing, Mabel is an examiner with the ABRSM, and Andrew is an associate professor at the Institute of Music at UCSI.  Despite their demanding roles and packed schedules, they've been making it a point to come together to play as the Anjung Trio for almost a decade.  Why? Simply because it's fun! As Mabel puts it, "I enjoy the friendship and makan sessions - it is such an enjoyable experience making music and curating a concert programme with friends. I think when you have a good relationships with the performers, it is easier to sync up and sound more cohesive as a group."

Making a Glorious Reality

Image
Gemilang has been a deeply impactful piece of music - an anthem of inspiration and triumph - that has moved us since the very first time we heard Jaclyn Victor perform it 20 years ago. This year, its English version, titled Glorious , was released and it is every bit as amazing! I'm looking forward to having all of those feels kicked up a notch next week at Tutan Entertainment's The Art of Sound . The concert, which promises to take audiences on a journey exploring the textures and emotions that music can evoke, will feature an exciting finale: Jaclyn Victor will be premiering the orchestral version of Glorious with live symphonic accompaniment by the Tutan Festival Orchestra . Bringing artistic vision to life This orchestral version is the product of artistic collaboration between Tutan Entertainment's conductor laureate Kevin Field and Azhad Sulaiman , arranger and orchestrator extraordinaire.  As an experienced and sought-after conductor, Kevin brings a vision for ove...

Bringing her to Art of Sound is not just about featuring a world-class violinist - it's about introducing a way of thinking that challenges musicians to grow beyond just playing their instruments. Her presence is an opportunity to inspire a new generation to approach music with depth, intention, and a strong sense of artistic identity." - Kevin Field, Conductor Laureate of the Tutan Festival Orchestra Tutan Entertainment is gearing up for its upcoming concert,  The Art of Sound , taking place on April 19th and 20th at PJPAC in 1Utama. The programme for the concert is set to take audiences on a journey exploring music in its most extreme forms - from the soft, delicate elegance of Ravel's Pavane for a Dead Princess to the big, bold, and blazing finale of Stravinsky's Firebird Suite . Also on the programme is the achingly beaut...
