A powerful cross-cultural multimedia collaboration involving artists from Australia, Japan and Singapore, Sandakan Threnody takes its inspiration from the tragic events surrounding the death marches from Sandakan POW camp in Northeast Borneo in 1945. Based on Australian wartime survivors’ accounts of the death marches, Sandakan Threnody is an intensely personal project for those involved — in particular, composer Jonathan Mills, whose father was a medical officer captured in the fall of Singapore and sent to Sandakan.
Presented as part of the Singapore Arts Festival 2004.
