We Love Jazz SG proudly hosted our first sharing platform. Speakup! Speaklouder Talking Sessions (SUSL) is an every-3months-series of safe and open platform for sharing and discussing about our discipline, community or anything around jazz and improvised arts in Singapore. For the first instalment, we raised a topic that is generic maybe but most important; Sustainability of jazz & improvised music in Singapore.
This is the first event organized by We Love Jazz SG. Our Co-Director, Aya Sekine, gave a brief introduction about our organization to the participants of this talking session.
Why do we have Speakup! Speaklouder Talking Sessions? During the introduction, our Co-Director Dawn Ho explained, “As there are lot of people in the industry, doing it this way would create collective consciousness and hopefully make change. We can all play a part in the industry whether as practitioners, venue owners, etc.”
Indeed, we are truly glad to hear different opinions and perspective from everyone who participated in this session. Details for the next Speakup! Speak Louder Talking Sessions will be released soon. For now, do let us know if you have a burning topic to discuss. We hope for more fruitful sessions that connects everyone in the Arts.
