Rajah & Tann Singapore is set to present “An Odyssey of Humanity and Nature,” a concert celebrating the bond between humanity and nature, at Victoria Concert Hall on 16 April 2025. The event, in honour of International Mother Earth Day, will feature a performance of Schumann’s Piano Concerto in A Minor by Cynthia Goh, a partner at Rajah & Tann, with Deputy Prime Minister Heng Swee Keat as the Guest of Honour.
The concert will welcome ambassadors from Chile, Japan, the Philippines, and Vietnam, adding an international dimension to the cultural celebration. Cynthia Goh will perform alongside the Musicians’ Initiative orchestra, bringing to life Schumann’s romantic masterpiece known for its emotional depth and intricate interplay between piano and orchestra.
In addition to Schumann’s concerto, the programme includes Richard Strauss’ Also Sprach Zarathustra, famously known as the opening theme of Stanley Kubrick’s film “Space Odyssey.” During this piece, artist Barry Yeow will perform a live painting, merging music and visual art.
Rajah & Tann, through its philanthropic arm, the Rajah & Tann Foundation, is partnering with Bethesda Care Services and the Lions Club to invite seniors and youths to the concert, promoting inclusivity and community spirit. Managing Partner Ng Kim Beng stated, “This concert not only highlights the exceptional talent of our partner Cynthia Goh but also underscores our dedication to making the arts accessible to all.”
Tickets for the concert are available online, with a promotional discount for friends of Rajah & Tann.
