About Chrisye

Chrisye is the singer most Indonesians describe as the country's defining male pop voice. From the breakout Lilin-Lilin Kecil in 1977 through the sophisticated orchestrations of the late 1990s, he stayed at the centre of Indonesian pop for three decades without ever raising his voice. His funeral in 2007 drew tens of thousands of mourners and Rolling Stone Indonesia named him the second-greatest Indonesian musician of all time.
