In October 2025, the Gong Cultural Centre in Cambodia welcomed award-winning pianist Kseniia Vokhmianina and the outstanding flutist Roberto Álvarez of the Singapore Symphony Orchestra. Alongside recital performances, the artists presented a charity concert for students and staff of the Gecko, made recordings at the Gong Studio, and generously shared their time and expertise with students from the Gong Talent Team. Huge thanks and bravo to everyone involved!
