The purpose of writing this report is to showcase the process of the making of the Final Year Project titled 'The Art of Community Togetherness'. The idea and methodology behind the project will be introduced in detail. The intention was basically to present the National Anthem of Singapore in a different form; sung collectively by a diverse set of people, such that it would become a unique piece of work. This report shall be outlining and discussing the procedures and technical techniques used to reach the final product. Throughout this report the 'National Anthem of Singapore' will be described simply as the National Anthem. The whole National Anthem or any part of the National Anthem will be referred to as 'sounds' and any recordings collected of the participants for this project will be referred to as 'recordings'. Lastly, any references to the Final Year Project will simply be known as 'project'. By the end of the report, it is hoped, that the reader will appreciate the idea of creating a unique version of the National Anthem as an artwork; part of the Final Year Project.
