Venue: Suntec City Convention Halls 602-603
Windworkz was invited to be part of Covenant Evangelical Free Church's 31st Anniversary celebration service. We were most inspired to deliver our very best as we accompanied Clement Chow who led the 5,000-strong congregation to worship with big band versions of Let's Just Praise the Lord, Just a Closer Walk and Reach Out to Jesus. We also had the opportunity to deliver the heart-thumping Jericho - one could almost hear the walls come tumbling down.
Friends in the congregation remarked "The band certainly created a great ambience", ".. it has been fantastic", "... (we hear) nothing but praises about how refreshing it was".
It was fantastic and refreshing for us as well - our first time being part of a worship session...

2009 #4 - YMCA Golf Charity
Venue: Tanah Merah Country Club
Another golf charity - this time with YMCA, whom we've often collaborated with.
As usual, we did our best to keep the golfers who had a long day on the greens for charity entertained.
The Guest of Honour, Mr S. Dhanabalan, Chairman, Temasek Holdings, commented at the opening of his address that he was most appreciative of the live big band music he heard us perform. We were most delighted to hear that. Alas, we were unable to play two of his favourite pieces, In the Mood and Chattanooga Choo Choo. Till we meet again the next time, Sir...

2009 #3: Inspire '09 - Gifts from the Heart
Venue: The Republic Cultural Centre
Inspire is a student-initiated project aimed at raising awareness and funds for The Straits Times School Pocket Money Fund.
"Gifts from the Heart" is a Gala concert that features "a smorgasbord of different genres ranging from dance, theatre, classical music to pop and rock". "All those involved have but one goal in mind - to touch the hearts of all those who are present and to touch the hearts of the children who are in need... to offer A GIFT FROM THE HEART" (Chan Chi Ling, Inspire '09 Concerts Committee Overall I/C).
WindWorkz performed with gusto Rock Around The Clock, Mack the Knife, Cherry Pink and Apple Blossom White, Jericho and Crocodile Rock to an appreciative audience who cheered heartily. WindWorkz also accompanied Cantate Domino on their jazzy rendition of Swingin' Sweet Chariot, an instrumental arrangement commissioned specially for this concert. Lastly, WindWorkz collaborated with the Lindy Hop Ensemble as they danced to the catchy live tune of Jumpin' at the Woodside.
