When traveling abroad, <a href="https://spectraensemble.eu/" title="https://spectraensemble.eu/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">SPECTRA</a> always tries to make programmes with music from its home country, Belgium, along with music from the country it is visiting. This very diverse programme – one demonstrating many aspects of contemporary music – is built around 4 teacher/student relationships: Luc Brewaeys was the teacher of Annelies van Parys, Furkan Keçeli studied with Filip Rathé, Frank Nuyts was Daan Janssens’ mentor, and of course Diana studied with both Peter Edwards and Ho Chee Kong as YST.As Gustav Mahler beautifully put it: Tradition is not worshiping the ashes but passing on the fire. This is the heart of the teacher/student relationship, as is the relationship between the numbers 3 and 4 in music: Inextricably linked, but focused from the start on letting go and moving on.Don't miss Spectra's other recital earlier in the week as part of YST Chamber Week:<a href="https://www.ystmusic.nus.edu.sg/event/chamber-music-week-festival-recital-3-spectra-ensemble" title="https://www.ystmusic.nus.edu.sg/event/chamber-music-week-festival-recital-3-spectra-ensemble" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Chamber Week – Festival Recital III: Spectra Ensemble</a> 19 March (Wed), 12:10pm | Concert Hall | Free PROGRAMMEENSEMBLE SPECTRA: FILIP RATHÉ, conductor with PIETER JANSEN, violin BRAM BOSSIER, viola FRANCIS MOUREY, cello TILLE VAN GASTEL, flute JULIEN BENETEAU, clarinet FRANK VAN EYCKEN, percussion LUKAS HUISMAN, pianoFRANK NUYTS Rats and Rabbits (2005)DAAN JANSSENS (Paysages – études) IV (2011)FURKAN KECELI A Variation on the Theme of TransculturalismFILIP RATHE Avec diamants extrêmesQui pleure là Si proche de moi-mêmePETER IVAN EDWARDS Ghoti– Intermission –DIANA SOH Incantare: take 2ANNELIES VAN PARYS FragranceSLUC BREWAEYS Nobody is Perfect!
