Singapore Composers Festival 2026 is a one-day event on Sunday, 7 June, running from 10am to 6pm at Practice Space @ The Theatre Practice, 54 Waterloo Street. The Composers Society of Singapore describes it as a music experiential event built as a non-stop artistic flow.
The most useful reason to go is the programme mix. The official page says the opening concert is a two-country collaboration between Singapore composers and South Korean composer collective Space for Sound, performed by Morse Percussion, while the closing concert features SYC Ensemble Singers premiering works from Young Composers Forum participants.
Programme Shape
The festival names Singapore composers Emily Koh, Hoh Chung Shih, Tan Yuting and Toh Yan Ee alongside Korean composers Hye-Jeong Hwang Lee, Seung-ki Hong, Somin Lee and Won Jung Lee for the opening collaboration.
That cross-border structure makes the event more than a local showcase. It gives listeners a compact way to hear how contemporary percussion, choral writing and young-composer work sit inside regional exchange.
- Date: Sunday, 7 June 2026.
- Time: 10am to 6pm.
- Venue: Practice Space @ The Theatre Practice.
- Address: 54 Waterloo Street, Singapore 187953.
- Organiser: Composers Society of Singapore.
Who Should Go
This is a good fit for listeners who want something more exploratory than a standard concert. The festival page frames music as cultural exchange and critical examination of contemporary issues, so it should suit students, composers, musicians and curious arts audiences.
Because it is a full-day format, visitors should check the ticketing and schedule details before committing. If you only have a short window, choose either the opening collaboration or the SYC closing concert rather than trying to drift in without a plan.
Waterloo Planning
The venue is close to the Bras Basah and Bencoolen arts belt, so it can pair with a museum or bookshop stop if you are already in the area. Build in meal time because the 10am to 6pm window is long.
