The work is based on the traditional Malay and Indonesian folk songs Gelang Sipaku Gelang and Rasa Sayang. Gelang Sipaku Gelang is a Malay folk song about the virtues of respect and tolerance in community living. Rasa Sayang is a traditional Indonesian folk song that originated from the eastern islands of Maluku. The song, which translates to “loving feeling”, has been sung for generations to express the people’s love for their environment. Both folk songs explore the notions of surroundings, nature and care for a larger ecosystem. The accordion is played by Yong Siew Toh graduate Syafiqah 'Adha, recognised as the only Singapore female accordionist who performs proficiently in this musical style.
