Exploring the Delights Behind Melodies:
Enjoying
the Music
On the 12th of February, Kuen Cheng High School started its first Saturday Independent Learning
Day event of 2022. One of the programs included an “Enjoying the Music’’ session hosted by the coach
of the Music Composing Society and a few club members.
An introduction to “Enjoying the Music’’ session was given by the coach, Madam Hee Siaw Fuey,
who is also the Head of the Co-curricular Department. She introduced the basics of music, major, minor
and chinese music. She then performed her own rendition of Jay Chou’s 《稻香》 in three different keys.
Then, she shared different music genres like classical, pop music and new age music. She also shared
how a music’s tempo, texture and key can influence our breathing, imagination and mood. Examples
were played using Yiruma’s “Kiss The Rain”.
