ConcertThe Arkroyal 阿客号 is not your usual jazz band. A little reluctant to slap on any labels, the band fuses beautiful jazz harmonies with pop, folk, rock and classical elements, playing original contemporary Mandarin and English jazz tunes that bear hints of the multicultural metropolis of Singapore.
After a hiatus during the pandemic, the band is back with new tunes in their signature style of easily-digestible melodies clothed in harmonic layers and rhythmic textures, tunes that tell the stories of life.
The Arkroyal 阿客号 features some of Singapore’s most well-regarded names in jazz and is led by Jazz Association scholar and LASALLE Award recipient Dawn Wong.
The Lunchtime Concert Series aims to provide a platform for leading creative musical figures from Singapore and overseas. With a focus on showcasing original work, the eclectic curation features a broad cross section of musical styles designed to expose LASALLE music students and the general public to both hidden and well-known talents.
