For Chan Tze Law, the question of whether the Orchestra of the Music Makers (OMM) will complete Wagner’s Ring cycle is, for now, best left unanswered.

For Lim Tiong Wooi, it was a box of almost 60 documents tracing her father’s years of detention, rejection and separation.

There is something wonderfully appropriate about Fried Rice Paradise never staying the same. Dick Lee wrote the song in 1973 as his first attempt at a Singaporean pop song, only to see it banned from airplay for its use of Singlish.
