About the Programme:
Join us for a fascinating session with Mr Goh Zensen, a pioneer of Xinyao, and gain a better understanding of this popular movement:
• How Xinyao was born;
• What the controversies in the formation of its identity are;
• Who the faces of Xinyao are; and
• Which organisations promoted or supported the Xinyao movement, and why.
Listen to Mr Goh’s first-hand sharing of his own group’s experience with Xinyao during its heyday, and enjoy a mixed-media and live demonstration of some signature Xinyao hits.
