Just a few weeks ago, the Chopin Society Singapore was officially registered—a milestone made possible by the efforts of the Polish embassy and Paul Supramaniam, a prominent lawyer, philanthropist and passionate advocate of classical music.

To learn more about this initiative, Joachim Ciecierski visited Supramaniam at his home in Singapore for an in-depth conversation about the origins of the society, its mission and its future goals.

The interview also explored the personal story behind Supramaniam's commitment to promoting Poland’s most celebrated composer.
