YST Concert Hall
YST Quartet-in-Residence, the T’ang Quartet, ignites the year with Renaissance & Emergence, rising onto the stage with a surge of renewal. Energised with a spirit of transformation and new possibilities, they open the season with a vibrant momentum that sets the tone for the journey ahead.
Constant innovation and steady reinvention is the name of the game for the T’ang Quartet. For 30 years, the group’s musical dexterity has surprised and delighted audiences locally and globally. Today, the Singapore-based quartet has grown to become one of the best known and most accomplished string quartets in Asia.
What started out in 1992 to break new ground in the sharing of classical music to a larger audience has grown exponentially. Witness their creative output of tight, stylist blend of East and West, seamlessly reinterpreting classical work for contemporary fans while appealing to traditional audiences.
