Nala has always lived in the worlds of beauty, craft and storytelling. Now we are opening the doors to something we have wanted to bring into our universe for a long time classical music. We are proud to host our first chamber concert at nala Kantoor our creative HQ inside the Kasturi.
For this debut evening we are collaborating with the COARTLA Quartet the string ensemble from the Coartify Collective founded by Coartify Labs. COARTLA brings together some of the most exciting young musicians in Malaysia. Performing with us are violinist Alyssa Chong known for her expressive tone and international appearances, violinist and instrument maker Samuel Wong whose artistry and craftsmanship sit side by side, violist Christopher Oh a familiar and respected figure in the classical scene, and cellist Timmy Lim a versatile performer, arranger and educator. Together they create a quartet that feels fresh confident and alive.
Their program features selections from Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker the unmistakable sound of the holiday season and a perfect match for an evening at Kantoor.
The concert takes place on the 13th of December inside NALA Kantoor an intimate setting where music and design meet effortlessly. Before or after the performance you can enjoy a coffee from Ghostbird downstairs a small ritual that completes the night.
