Synopsis

What is home? It can be a physical space, a group of friends, the smell of familiar food, one’s native language, the feeling of comfort… Home can be many things—it can also be in music.

 

In July 2023, Elizabeth and Madeline started the project Rumah, performing unheard Indonesian and Singaporean classical music in many venues and radio programmes across the Netherlands. Now, they will bring it to Singapore for the first time. 

 

The programme promises to be unique and intimate —with music by composers such as Phoon Yew Tien, Jonathan Shin, Tristuji Kamal and Mochtar Embut.

Madeline and Elizabeth met as colleagues in the Conservatorium of Amsterdam, where Rumah first took shape.

 

Elizabeth Goh

Elizabeth started learning piano at age seven. Since then, she has gone on to win awards internationally. She performs actively as a solo and chamber musician, and is particularly passionate about playing lesser-known music. Recently, she graduated from her Bachelor studies in Amsterdam with Professor David Kuyken. 

 

Madeline Saputra 

Madeline graduated cum laude in classical singing from the Conservatorium van Amsterdam, under the guidance of Sasja Hunnego. Madeline actively performs old and contemporary music throughout the Netherlands with different musicians, composers and conductors. She also performs occasionally for the Dutch national radio for classical music, NPO4.
