About Guitaresque

Guitaresque is a Singapore-based non-professional classical guitar quartet. All our members are full-time working professionals but have come together because of our shared passion for guitar music.

We are alumni members of the NUS Guitar Ensemble (GENUS), the premier Niibori-styled guitar orchestra in Singapore, founded by Mr Alex Abisheganaden.

Guitaresque won the first prize and second prize (ensemble) in the 2004 and 2001 Singapore Guitar Festival Competition respectively.

We're moving!

No, it's not that Guitaresque is moving our blog somewhere else.

Neither is it that the group has progressed so much that we are moving overseas to ply our guitar skills (though our venerable mentor Mr Alex A recently told us that he felt we were "at that standard" to venture overseas.. Somehow, we all felt it was simply kind words from an old teacher, whose sense of hearing may not be as keen as before, or as we'd have liked. Nevertheless, I am still very grateful to be thought of highly by such a respectable figure as he. )

Guitaresque will, however, be moving out of our regular rehearsal studio (which will be fondly remembered as our "Carnegie Hall" ) at The Dew@ Bukit Batok. The reason? I'm moving house this week. That is also the reason why this blog has not been receiving the regular updates recently.

Here're some pictures for us to remember the place by, in the future...


Where we shall be pracitising in the future is still uncertain, but in all likelihood, we would be visiting LS's abode, since space is definitely -not- an issue at his place. =)
