Iridescence

Event Synopsis

The Fairfield Choir warmly invites you to an inspiring evening of choral artistry at the 2026 Iridescence Concert, where voices from across generations come together to share a vibrant tapestry of sound, emotion, and storytelling. This year’s repertoire showcases the choir’s commitment to musical growth, cultural diversity, and heartfelt expression, promising an unforgettable journey for every listener.

The concert opens with Kerraban Sapè (Bull Race), a spirited and rhythmically charged piece that evokes the thrill and energy of a traditional bull-racing festival. This exhilarating start is followed by Mis on inimene? (What Is Human?), a song that contemplates the essence of humanity through ethereal harmonies and introspective beauty.

The programme then moves into Virita Criosa, a powerful composition infused with colour and emotion, before transitioning into the luminous I Will Sing You the Stars, a piece that lifts the imagination skyward with its soaring lines and message of wonder. The mood deepens with 听海 Ting Hai (Listen to the Sea), a poignant and expressive Mandarin song that captures the vastness of the ocean and the quiet ache of longing.

Renewal and rebirth take centre stage in Mundi renovatio, a vibrant celebration of the world’s continual transformation. This is complemented by the gentle charm of Twinkle Star, which offers a moment of innocence and tenderness. Before the intermission, the choir presents Song of Zechariah – 1. Benedictus, a dignified and expressive work that brings both strength and serenity to the programme’s first half.

After intermission, the Fairfield Alumni Choir takes the stage, presenting Exsultate Justi, a spirited celebration of joy and unity sung with maturity and resonance. They will then perform For Their Hearts Were Full of Spring, a tender and beautifully blended piece that evokes warmth, nostalgia, and the enduring spirit of close harmony singing. These alumni offerings add a meaningful and heartfelt dimension to this year’s gathering of Fairfield voices past and present.

Following this, the spotlight turns to our student groups. The Secondary 1 choir will perform Count on Me, an uplifting reminder of friendship and support. The Secondary 2 choir then presents Defying Gravity, an empowering anthem of courage and self-discovery. Our Secondary 3 performers take the stage with Somewhere Only We Know, offering a heartfelt and nostalgic musical moment.

For the finale, the combined choir presents Songs of a Disney Hero (Choral Medley)—a rousing and colourful journey through beloved melodies including How Far I’ll Go, Touch the Sky, Reflection, When Will My Life Begin, and Zero to Hero. This joyous medley brings together themes of courage, identity, exploration, and triumph, ending the evening on a high, uplifting note.

Under the direction of conductor Mr Yong Chee Foon and assistant conductor Ms Wynne Lee, the Fairfield Choir continues its mission to inspire, connect, and celebrate the beauty of choral music. We welcome you to join us for this memorable night, where voices unite to tell stories of humanity, hope, and the enduring power of song.
