Singapore Sun Festival 2008
Theme: A Celebration of the Art of Living Well.
Singapore Sun Festival is positioned as Singapore’s premier arts and lifestyle festival encompassing Music, Visual Arts, Literature, Film, Wine, Cuisine and Wellness.
The inaugural Singapore Sun Festival held in October 2007 started off with high calibre world music and jazz acts.
This year, the flavour appears more contemporary and the range of events more ambitious.
Over 90 premium arts and lifestyle events involving more than 250 artists, musicians, chefs, writers and celebrities spread over many locations along the Singapore River and Marina Bay will entertain visitors throughout ten days from 17 October to 26 October 2008.
To kick off the Singapore Sun Festival 2008, a Gala Opening Concert will take place on 18 October 2008 at 7.30pm at the Esplanade Concert Hall. But instead of featuring Academy-Award winning director and actor Robert Redford (as promised), Golden Globe, BAFTA, Emmy, AFI and Academy Award winning actor, Geoffrey Rush, will take over the role of the narrator of Peter and the Wolf in a last minute change of plan.
Other notable performers like grand dame of opera, Kiri Te Kanawa, and the world-renowned Vienna Boys Choir – will be present to perform an unforgettable evening of music, story-telling and popular opera classics.
