Our long-time friend Goh Ching Lee has to be the master of all soirees - she has hosted the most soirees of anyone we know. This year's springtime offering on Sunday 3 May was no exception, with new friends, new repertoire and new food offerings. The usual suspects were there, including the resident cellist of Havelock - Hoe Kit - who will be premiering two concertos in June. Also in attendance was long time veteran arts manager Juliana Lim, and arts entrepreneurs Michael and Meena Tay. A new addition is pianist Alan Lim, Hoe Kit's church friend and new accompanist. Here are the photos.
