Mr. Palaruan, a noted choral conductor and composer as well as the current choral director of the Singapore Symphony Orchestra, and Ms. Quintin, a renowned soprano who had previously performed as the principal musical performer for the Philippine Embassy in Singapore’s 2015 Independence Day celebrations, gave several standout performances during the three-day event, covering the works of renowned baroque composers Henry Purcell and George Frideric Handel.
