Since 2004, The Main Wayang Company (TMWC) has been promoting & keeping the Peranakan Baba Culture alive through events, shows & music. ‘It’s Time For Sayang Sayang’ is the 3rd music production by TMWC. All the music on this CD are original compositions by TMWC which aim to entertain, inspire & educate all Babas, Nyonyas & anyone who loves the Peranakan Baba Culture in Singapore, Malaysia & the rest of the world! The song ‘It’s Time For Sayang Sayang’ has been TMWC’s signature tune & truly one of the most popular & endearing original Peranakan songs through the years. Hence, it is only apt that we title this CD after this song to share our ‘sayang’ (love) with our ‘family & friends’ & you! The songs in this CD also inspired the multi-media musical ‘Siapa Baba?’ TMWC would like to say a big kamsiah (thank you) to the following people; Our cultural advisor Baba William Gwee for his contribution of ‘Di Kebun Bunga’, guest singer Gani Abdul Karim for his support and vocal talent, our Main Wayang singers; Jacqueline Pereira, Jessie Cheang, Sarah Keoni, Nadia & Nadine Kang, Alexandra Tan, Tony Quek, Joseph Goh, Richard Tan, Kelvin Tan, Denzil Kwa, Darius, Doran & Alvin Oon and Melodie Ng for playing the rebana. Special thanks to Alvin Oon who was instrumental in this production including composing & arranging the songs found in this CD. We would like to thank everyone who contributed, in one way or another, to this production and to you, our dear ‘Kawan’, for supporting TMWC. So enjoy the music & let’s keep our Peranakan Baba Culture growing! SONGS & LYRICS LINK |
