NTU CAC Piano Ensemble Eleganza was held at Esplanade Recital Studio, on 27 February 2023. Eleganza is the annual flagship event of NTU CAC Piano Ensemble. It features the best pianists of the Ensemble playing challenging repertoires which they practice tirelessly over months, specifically concert items featuring 4 hands piano pieces. This year’s performance is of particular significance to NTUPE, as it is our 20th Anniversary. To celebrate this special occasion, NTUPE has collaborated with a diverse range of music clubs, originating from both within and outside NTU, premiering a piece composed by one of our main committee members. The purpose of this event is to provide members with a platform to express their skills and creativity, and to celebrate the hard work that our members have put in over the past academic year. Due to the COVID-19 situation of previous years, there had been significant audience capacity restriction on-site for the past few years. Hence, this concert marks the first time Eleganza was allowed to be held at maximum capacity of 222 audiences (full house). This is down from the listed capacity of 245, due to Fire Safety Restrictions. With the held of NTU CAC Media and IT (MIT), as well as CAC Concert Engineers (CE), this performance was recorded, after which it will be subsequently published on YouTube for the general public to view, as part of CAC PE’s continuous publicity & outreach efforts. This year is also the first where the Eleganza showcased thrilling violin performances by our sponsor, Belcanto Violins. Despite it being the first time working with Belcanto Violins to feature their talents, Eleganza was a success due to the hard work placed by NTUPE main committee members. Additionally, we have also invited musicians from NTU CAC Chinese Orchestra, SIT Chinese Orchestra, and SMU Symphonia to join us for our concert this year for a piano quartet performance to provide our audience with a good variety of genres to enjoy. This also provides our performers the opportunity to perform with musicians from other Singapore Universities, thus strengthening our inter-University bonds.
