Hey folks! 大家好！

It’s Chinese Lunar New Year! Let us welcome the new year with a new take on a 70-year-old Chinese classic tune. Here’s wishing everyone a funky and groovy new year ahead.

祝大家春風得意, 豬事順利, 新年快樂, 萬事如意!

A few weeks ago, an ex-student wrote to us asking if we can play the theme song 雪落下的聲音 (translates to ‘The Sound of Snow Falling’) from the Chinese TV drama 延禧攻略 ‘The Story of Yanxi Palace’. We have not heard it before, but we checked it out anyway. And we’re glad we did.

The appeal of the song lies in the poignant lyrics and enchanting melody. While it mainly uses the Chinese oriental pentatonic scale, there is a modern touch to the song, by way of current chord progressions and charismatic guitar arpeggios using open-chord voicings.  We decided to work on an instrumental version of the song by combining both Chinese and western instruments such as Chinese flute, guzheng, guitar and piano.

We hope you like our rendition.

It’s the time of the year again!

This Christmas, we put on our happy outfits and recorded the ukulele, pianica and guitar to celebrate the season. Have a blessed Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Featuring our vocal student Kristen Png.

Student Showcase is something we have been wanting to do for a long time. We see this as a good avenue for students to share their talents, especially after months (or years!) of practising relentlessly, in search of musical perfection. Do not get us wrong. Student Showcase is never about musical perfection. In fact, music is NOT all about the perfection of executions. Down to the irreducible minimum, music is about communicating, conveying feelings and emotions. Let music speak for itself.

In this video, Kristen performs the popular Ed Sheeran song ‘Photograph’.

Winter Wonderland is a Christmas classic written more than 80 years ago (in 1934!) by Felix Bernard and Richard B. Smith. We absolutely adore the beautiful modulations in the chorus.

We hope you like our rendition. Merry Christmas, folks!

Never mind if this is going to be your first time picking up the ukulele or guitar, or have been wanting to try your hand(s) on the piano, you are at the right place.

Still undecided? Check out our videos and see what dreams are made of.

We are 13 today ( as of 9th Oct 2015 ) ! A big thank you to those who remember, and to those who stood by us all these while.

If we had crossed paths in some way or another, we thank you for being part of our journey. It’s been truly wonderful.

Hello to all our Muslim friends! It’s the last day of the Ramadan! We have recorded a classic Malay song ‘Selamat Hari Raya’ by the late Saloma (Salmah Ismail) or better known as Primadona Saloma. Featuring an eclectic blend of gambus, frame drum and ukulele!

The beautiful song ‘Selamat Hari Raya’ was composed by the late talented multi-instrumentalist Ahmad Ja’afar, who was also the conductor of RTS (Radio & Television Singapore) and SBC (Singapore Broadcasting Corporation) Orchestra.

Here’s wishing all our Muslims friends Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri. Maaf zahir dan batin.
