The Borneo Ensemble is thrilled to invite you to two special events next week.
Open Rehearsal | 16 April Thursday
We’re holding an open rehearsal session over at Studio Payung Mahkota at Akademi Seni & Teknologi Kreatif in UMS. It’s a wonderful chance to pop in and see how the music comes together behind the scenes. Admission is complimentary; however, as space is limited, we kindly advise arriving early to secure your place.
World Premiere Concert | 18 April Saturday
Join us for the main event at the Recital Hall, Universiti Malaysia Sabah. We will be premiering brilliant new works by seven Malaysian composers from various institutions.
The programme reflects on Borneo’s tattoo and bead cultures through sound. Both events are fully open to the public. To ensure your seat at the Saturday premiere, please do make your reservations at your earliest convenience.
we’d absolutely love for you to be a part of it and looking forward to seeing you all there.

A Cross-Cultural Experimental Music Performance Inspired by Folklore and Natural Soundscapes
We are pleased to invite you to Echoes of Tradition Recital, an international experimental music performance bringing together composers and performers from Malaysia, Austria, Thailand, and Japan.

Kalimbiex and @borneoensemble are proud to present a very special event as part of our collaborative project, _Echoes of Ink and Beads_ . It is a great honour to welcome Eleanor Goroh ( @magicborneobeads ) for a hands-on beadwork workshop, where participants will hear the story behind this remarkable cultural tradition, experience the beauty of Borneo bead culture, and leave with a handcrafted beadwork keepsake of their own. Special thanks to @yayasan_hasanah for the generous support that has made this event possible.
