Intune Music Activities at Japan Creative Centre JCC!

Intune Music School was actively involved in a few activities at the Japan Creative Centre (JCC) during these past few months.

The first event was held on 23 June 2012, and our director Mr. Peng Chi Sheng was invited to give a talk on the music in the film 'Nodame Cantabile Final', which was screened at JCC to a select audience. Chi Sheng also invited his student and friend, Ms. Sim Boon Hui, to also share her thoughts about the music in the film and also share some insight about the composer of the music.

It was a lovely sharing session which ended with a certificate presentation by the Director of JCC, Minister Hiroyuki Yamamoto.

The 2nd event that our director Peng Chi Sheng was involved in incidentally was the Farewell of Director of JCC, Minister Hiroyuki Yamamoto on 6 Sep 2012. This event was a farewell party and Chi Sheng conveyed our best wishes to the minister, wishing him all the best in his future endeavours!

Irwin Fua, student of Intune Music School, in Final 3 placing of Sunsilk Academy Fantasia!

We are very proud to announce that one of our singing students, Irwin Fua, has successfully competed and entered the Top 3 placing for the Sunsilk Academy Fantasia reality singing competition 2012, showing 'live' everyday on Starhub Channel 110!

Irwin is a personal student of our Vocal Director, Mr. Aaron Lim, and he has been learning under him for around 8 years or more! For this competition, Irwin had to live in with 14 other contestants, and every week at least 1 or 2 contestants were eliminated.

The competition rounds were held weekly at Dragonfly, St James Power Station, and each week the supporters and fans would gather to cheer their favourite contestants on. Irwin's supporters were of course there in full strength too, to give Irwin their support!

It has been a long and arduous journey for Irwin, as he has been living in 'captivity' for the past 7-8 weeks, with no contact with his friends or family members, and no access to the outside world! But, it has all been worth it, because Irwin is finally in the Grand Finals, and is one of the Top 3 contestants to have made it through!
