Due to Singapore’s limited advancement in the local music industry, there are Singaporeans that have ventured overseas and done us proud. For example, Stephanie Sun, Tanya Chua and JJ Lin have achieved fantastic results as singers in Taiwan and China. They are able to be accepted widely by foreign fans and claiming first place on various music charts.
The local music scene is also actively promoting Singaporeans to live their dreams and pursue singing as their career. Singing competitions organised by Mediacorp have been a trend in Singapore since 2005, which includes Project Superstar, Campus Superstar and Singapore Idol. Winners and runner-ups are then able to have the opportunity to be signed on with music companies and pursue their career as singers in Singapore or overseas.
There are also local music companies like Hype Nation Records and music schools like Lee Wei Song School of Music. They offer opportunities to locals who are keen in joining the music industry or have the potential to outshine themselves in the sea of singers.
Besides being singers, there are also other job opportunities in the music scene. The many jobs include producers, lyricist, back-up singers and many more.
Furthermore, one of Singapore’s most famous landmarks – Esplanade – is an ideal location to stage plays and musicals. The Esplanade was first opened in 5 July 2005. There are a concert hall, theatre and studios located in the Esplanade that allows a large number of audiences to enjoy the performances put up by singers or actors.
