Synopsis

Well-known as Singapore’s vintage songbird, Miss Lou brings her brand of Nanyang jazz to the stage this Chinese New Year. Inspired by the sounds of Shanghai in the 1930s and the golden era of jazz in America, Nanyang jazz is a uniquely Southeast Asian musical style that represents the international influences that constantly arrive on Singapore shores.

 

Come listen to a swing jazz version of Happy New Year, a big band arrangement of A Plum Blossom, and Mandarin jazz originals like Fresh Air —which thrusted Miss Lou into the consciousness of Chinese audiences globally on Chinese social media platform Little Red Book (小红书)—and an original Chinese New Year jazz tune about Singapore, This Is CNY.

Language: Mandarin, English
