The event was designed around the temple, which served as a carefully orchestrated backdrop for the 300 performers who took to the stage throughout the evening prior to José Carreras’ performance with the Singapore Symphony Orchestra.
This project required the installation of more than 40 tonnes of technical equipment distributed across the vast grounds of the temple.
