THE rollicking action and visual wonder of Peter Pan: The Never Ending Story formed the backdrop for the launch of the Sing50 Fund, a new fund established to preserve and promote the music of Singapore.
The Sing50 Fund is an initiative of the Sing50 mega-concert organised by The Business Times and The Straits Times to celebrate 50 years of local music. The fund's initial sum of S$348,000 will be used to buy 50 Steinway-designed Lang Lang pianos, which will feature in the concert and then be adopted by schools for the promotion of Singapore songs.
