MUSIC AT DBS OPEN DAYS

From the grandeur of the Araya Hall's main stage to the intimate chamber ensembles, music regularly weaves through our Open Days throughout the year, elevating each guest’s visit to DBS. Witness how music is not just featured but celebrated in DBS. 


Here, DBS musicians perform Karl Jenkins' "Palladio", which was written in 1995. This piece of music is named after the famous Italian architect Andrea Palladio, and is inspired by Palladio's architectural style and aims to capture the grandeur and beauty of his designs.

SCHERZO WITH A TWIST

DBS Music scholar Jaar performs Oskar Morawetz's "Scherzo", with a playful twist - a unique combination of gothic and dark comedic elements paired with some commanding piano talent.



Huge congratulations to Jaar for this wonderful performance, which not only showcased technical proficiency but also an impressive interpretative flair. Music scholars like Jaar contribute to the vibrant and enriching atmosphere of the Creative and Performing Arts provision here at DBS. Their dedication and creativity helps to underscore our continual commitment to nurturing talents across a wide spectrum of artistic disciplines.
