About the programme

This programme is held onsite at library@orchard and also online on Zoom.

Now Boarding: Wanderlusters, adventurers, culture enthusiasts. Has a song ever inspired you to travel to some place? Have you ever managed to instantly bond with someone because you knew some music from their country/region? In your travels, did you ever find some music to which you could not understand the lyrics, but couldn’t stop playing it? Join us and share these musical experiences with us. We will feature guests from across Asia who will introduce music that will help you make friends and score free food when you travel to these places. We will share the Spotify/Apple Music playlist of the featured music after the meet.
