Aca Concert 2008

Yep it’s the end of the Culture month. KR Aca put a well-deserved fullstop on this mad month of performances with our in-house concert. This year’s concert was held in the KR Dance studio, a small and cosy space. The concert also featured the debut of our 2nd-semester additions, Meisi and Lin (Yes, that Lin).

Some highlights of this year’s concert:

Lin in the starring role as “Beng. Ah Beng”.

And many more! Including “Internet Porn” and “Enormous Penis” by Da Vinci’s notebook, “O Holy Night” by N’Sync and “Ain’t no Sunshine”.

Many thanks to those who came down and squeezed into the dance studio to support us! For those who couldn’t make it down, there’s always next year!

Anyway, it’s time for all of us to buckle down and start preparing for exams. The next event that we’ll be involved in is the National A Cappella Championships this coming July – come and give us your support as we’ll probably be fielding a few teams!

Amplitude 2008

Hey! Sorry for the very very late updates but Culture Month here at Kent Ridge Hall just ended and we’re finally breathing a sigh of relief 🙂

Anyway, Amplitude (an annual event where choirs and a cappella groups from all the halls of residence come together to put up a show) 2008 went by on the 16th of March. As always, KR A Cappella put up a dazzling show with stylish dressing, tight choreography and, of course, plenty of good ‘ol harmony. We are an A Cappella group, after all.

This year we presented 2 songs at Amplitude: “Hitori”, a close harmony japanese tune done by the Gospellers; and Songs of the Sirens (SOS), an upbeat original composition we used for last year’s Aca Nationals, arranged by Elvin and Melissa, consisting of the songs “Let’s get loud”, “Sweet dreams” and “Sway”.
