Tutan Sessions: Two Strings Attached

Two Strings Attached invites audiences into an intimate 60-minute performance where violinist Philip Law and guitarist YS Tang reimagine timeless melodies from classical, film, and pop music. Stripped of excess, every note becomes a conversation — delicate, expressive, and deeply human.

Two instruments. Infinite possibilities.

Tutan Sessions: Two Strings Attached is an intimate musical dialogue between violin and guitar, featuring two of Malaysia’s most versatile musicians — Philip Law and YS Tang. Together, they explore how melody and rhythm intertwine, from the elegance of the Baroque era to the passion of tango, cinema, and contemporary soundscapes.

From the fiery passion of Vivaldi and Piazzolla to the cinematic beauty of Schindler’s List and Spirited Away, and the gentle rhythms of Latin America, the programme moves effortlessly across centuries and genres — blending classical refinement with contemporary soul.

Stripped down to just violin and guitar, every note feels personal and alive. Expect moments of virtuosity, tenderness, and surprise in this warm, up-close concert experience.
