Coming up this year...

Dear Members, Friends and Supporters of the Philharmonic Society of Selangor,

Greetings and Gong Xi Fa Cai!

2008 marks the 50th Anniversary of the Philharmonic Society of Selangor. The committee has lined up an interesting programme to celebrate the Society's 50th Anniversary. The program for 2008 is as follows:

April - May: Recitals @ KL Performing Arts Centre
July: The Selangor Phil's 50th Anniversary Retrospective @ Panggung Bandaraya
Oct: The Boyfriend @ Panggung Bandaraya
Nov: 50th Anniversary Gala Dinner @ Corus Hotel

50 years ago, the Society performed its first musical, The Mikado, at Panggung Bandaraya. This year, we have managed to secure some dates at Panggung Bandaraya where we will bring you down memory lane with the SPhil Retrospective. This will be followed later by a musical, The Boyfriend, which will be conducted by Mr Philip Chai.

We will be sending out more information on the 50th anniversary celebrations soon.

I look forward to all your assistance and support for this year. The Phil is one of the oldest and most established performing arts societies in Malaysia, and would not have gone this far without your support.

We are also seeking volunteers to come forward to assist in the Ticket Office, Gala Dinner, Backstage and General Administration.

May the Year of the Rat bring good health, abundant wealth, great prosperity and happiness to you and your family.

Regards,
Alain Boey
Chairman 2007/08
