Pái Gǔ, Dàgǔ, Xiǎogǔ, and Kompang come together in a thunderous act built entirely from drumheads — many hides, many hands, vibrating as one. Eight musicians join on interlocking Kompang parts alongside the Chinese percussion, an explicit, joyful expansion of Chinese Wind-Percussion across cultures. It’s the loudest act in the show, and the one where wind and percussion push each other hardest.

Gambus Jodoh is a celebratory, upbeat Malay traditional song that serves as a playful commentary on destiny, romance, and perfect compatibility. Structurally, the track relies heavily on the traditional Pantun format (Malay poetic quatrains), using natural imagery and cultural metaphors to express a lighthearted philosophy on love.

A heartfelt tribute to two ensembles that shaped Benjamin Boo’s artistic journey — Reverberance and yIN Harmony — born from his return to Singapore in 2016 and his collaboration with fellow musicians Qing Lun and Wei Hong. The piece weaves together familiar themes from both groups, celebrating friendship and artistic growth, while embracing Chinese, Malay, and Indian percussion in a multicultural symbol of unity. Energetic, reflective, and celebratory — a musical testament to forging one’s own artistic path.

Kungfu is the crystallization of traditional Chinese culture and the embodiment of collective wisdom — a discipline that balances strength with softness, the outer form with the inner self. Beyond its powerful, dynamic physicality lies an elegant, profound depth, carrying within it the ancient philosophers’ understanding of life and the universe. Music, too, cannot exist without “kungfu” — it demands a quiet mind and steady cultivation, holding one’s stance firm no matter how chaotic the world outside may be.
