About

About SSO Pops: Kapustin, Gershwin and E.T.

What the evening plays and who performs it.

Experience a breathtaking season finale with the Singapore Symphony Orchestra as they bring the cinematic magic of John Williams’s iconic “E.T., The Extra‑Terrrestrial” symphonic suite to life, guiding the beloved alien home with soaring, unforgettable melodies. Under the dynamic baton of Joshua Tan, the ensemble is joined by the electrifying pianist Frank Dupree, whose infectious energy and sparkling enthusiasm elevate every note. Intertwined with the opening is Nikolai Kapustin’s Piano Concerto No. 2, Op. 14, a Singapore premiere that injects a heady dose of jazz into the program, complete with saxophones, drum set, guitar, and sheer musical playfulness.

The joy continues as the orchestra presents Pulitzer‑winning composer Kevin Puts’s cinematic Concerto for Orchestra, a six‑part gem featuring “Hymn for the Hurting,” “Music Box with Aretta,” a tender Sicilienne, and dynamic chases that propel the concert to a spectacular close.
