Gela Nexus | Continuum by NUS Guitar Ensemble

'Gela Nexus' performed by NUS Guitar Ensemble for Continuum, recorded in NUS University Town Dance Atelier 2, Singapore, on 21 October 2023.
In remembrance of GENUS’s founder, the recently departed Mr Alex Abisheganaden, the ensemble performed one of his prominent original compositions. Gela Nexus, an amalgamation of the word “GENUS” and the composer’s name “Alex”, highlights the different sections of the guitar orchestra and the unique tonality of each type of guitar. This sprightly piece illustrates Mr Abisheganaden's pride for the ensemble, to which he had dedicated immense time and effort.
