WVC Live at Heeren 88, Melaka
I was invited to crash the WVC Jazz concert at this beautiful old Baba Nyonya house in the Melaka Millionaire Row, hosted by Mr Ho and Grace. The century old Heeren 88 was converted into a minimalist living quarter, with a nice open courtyard in the middle. The concert was a private event, by invitations only, the boys had about one hundred guests that evening. Everyone were standing or sitting along the walls, a casual setting with wine.
The song - A well-loved Chinese folk, Molihua 茉莉花, reimagined and rearranged by my music producer and jazz pianist Tay Cher Siang, we first played Cher Siang's arrangement at the 2013 KK Jazz Festival. This version of ours features the two popular melodies by the same name - Molihua.
A recorded version of this song is on my debut album - "Restless Heart", available on physical album, iTunes music and Spotify.
