关于龚芝怡

她说，写的每一首歌，是向宇宙发出的一封信。

她对音乐的坚持，是希望能伴你走过人生的起落，及喜怒哀乐，悲欢离合。

她的音乐有一种悲伤，却包含无限的希望。

About Serene Koong

Serene Koong 龚芝怡 is a bilingual singer, songwriter and producer from Singapore who has been acclaimed with 9 major industry awards including the Asian Academy Creative Awards, Singapore Hit Awards and the Global Chinese Golden Chart Awards.

In 2013, she took on the role of producer for her music with her single “幸福不难” that she also wrote and performed, which would become the multi-award winning theme song the blockbuster drama series ‘The Dream Makers 志在四方”.

The song catapulted to huge success, and she gained prominence commercially and critically with her portfolio of works which have been featured on television and film such as Mediacorp’s “KIN”, “Slow Dancing” and “The Dream Makers 2” and has established herself as one of the notable female producers and singer-songwriters in Singapore.

In 2022, she titled her sold out concert “亲爱的你 Letters To You”, symbolic of her music journey where she described how journals of love, life and relationships take shape in every song she has written, each like a personal letter to her listeners. This has defined her identity as an artist and shaped her music, evident in works such as “当世界只剩下我一个人” and “When It Leads Me Back To You”.

Serene has also played an active role in nurturing younger artists, as mentor to the Top 20 finalists on the Mediacorp talent competition SpopSing!

Serene龚芝怡，在正式成为唱片歌手前已经活跃于新加坡的爵士酒吧，丰富的舞台经验让他被许多制作人争相邀请为孙燕姿，F.I.R等歌手演唱会担任和音。之后为了进修而加入著名音乐人黄韵仁与著名写词人小寒开设的学院学习创作，进而被发掘。 Serene擅长钢琴，音色深邃，创作带有一点爵士灵魂的氛围，她独特的唱腔被当时正在新加坡录制专辑的房祖名赏识，特别邀请她与他合唱「最好的我」，并收录在他的第二张专辑『乱』里。

后来由小寒企划，黄韵仁担任音乐总监，为Serene打造了『55：38：7』这张不管在音乐上或文字上都极有企图心的专辑。

Serene的创作与唱腔都受西洋流行音乐的影响，但同时融入东方的旋律美感，这两种元素同时在Serene身上不见冲突，反而成为一种容易辨识的风格，也因为这样，在专辑推出后，她同时囊括了新加坡最重要的音乐颁奖礼，新加坡金曲奖最受欢迎新人奖与优秀新人奖两项大奖。

2012年3月，制作公司特别为专辑改版，重新设计封套并再加两首新歌，专辑名称改为『声.体.与言』，登陆台湾发片宣传。
