After training at the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts, he enrolled in the Bachelor of Music programme at Oklahoma City University, where he graduated summa cum laude, and was inducted into the National Music Honours Society. At the University of Houston (UH), while studying vocal performance with Stephen Smith, Eng Kee was handpicked by Prof. Charles Hausmann, Director of Houston Symphony Chorus & Choral Activities at UH, to take up choral conducting. Since his return to Singapore, Eng Kee has presented papers on music education in conferences organised by Southeast Asian Ministers of Education Organisation and International Society for Music Education. In 1998, he founded the awardwinning Metro Philharmonic Youth Choir, and subsequently launched its annual concert series Aurhythmics. In 2002, he formed and conducted the Combined Schools Orchestra comprising selected Music Elective Programme students. An accomplished baritone in his own right, Eng Kee has, among other concerts, been featured in the Singapore Festival of Arts and the Singapore Festival of Asian Performing Arts. In May 2004, he sat on the jury as the youngest adjudicator for the National Singing Competition, jointly organized by the Singapore Composers’ Association, Singapore Choral Society and Lianhe Zaobao. In September 2006, Eng Kee performed Schumann’s song cycle Dichterliebe at the Arts House to mark Schumann’s 150th anniversary. Eng Meng-Chia
