SCCCI Mandarin Folk Song Singing Class
About Us
On May 13, 2000, the SCCCI Mandarin Folk Song Singing Class was founded by Mr Tan Meng Kow and Mr Leong Mum Sum, then Chairman and Vice Chairman of the SCCCI Cultural Committee, as a distinctive member benefit. The class not only helps preserve and promote Chinese culture, but also provides members with an opportunity to relieve work stress, nurture their character, make friends, and exchange business experiences through singing.
Since 2003, the class has focused on Chinese folk songs and was renamed the Mandarin Folk Song Golden Melody Singapore Class (Mandarin Folk Song Singing Class). To further broaden its reach, the class later opened its sessions to the public, giving non-members a chance to learn about the Chamber.
The class is currently led by Mdm Liu Xiaohong from the Beijing Central Conservatory of Music, who has served as its vocal instructor since its inception. With her extensive teaching experience, students have benefited greatly. Participants also perform publicly on a regular basis, earning widespread praise for their vocal skills.
