Afgan to Prepare Special Duet Surprise at Retrospective Concert 2026
Volatile market conditions are expected to persist until the end of May.
Singer Afgan Syahreza is preparing a major surprise for his fans in his upcoming solo concert titled ‘Retrospective’. During a press conference held in the Senayan area, Jakarta, quoted on Sunday (17/5), the singer of the song ‘Panah Asmara’ hinted at a special collaboration with a singer who is his idol.
Although he remains tight-lipped about the identity of his duet partner, Afgan assures that this performance will be one of the most emotional moments. This collaboration is not just about singing together, but packaged in a series of songs strung together or a medley.
“Later there will be a duet with one of my idol singers, I’m not allowed to ‘spill’ who it is here. We will sing a ‘medley’ and the ‘medley’ will become one story and end with something like creating a new song,” said Afgan enthusiastically.
The musical arrangement for this segment is designed so that the pieces of songs performed will blend into a cohesive narrative. Afgan even says that the final result will feel like a truly new piece of music to listeners’ ears.
The concert, scheduled to take place at Plenary Hall, Jakarta Convention Center (JCC) on July 18, 2026, will be even more spectacular with the involvement of legendary musician Erwin Gutawa. As the orchestra leader, Erwin will accompany Afgan throughout the performance.
Erwin Gutawa believes that this collaboration is very appropriate given Afgan’s technical ability and vocal character, which are considered to harmonize well when combined with the grandeur of orchestral music. This combination is expected to bring the audience deeper into Afgan’s career journey.
The public’s enthusiasm for the Retrospective concert has been massive. CEO of Seven Star Production, Dolly Sartika, revealed that during the pre-sale period (early bird), several ticket categories were immediately sold out in a short time.
A striking phenomenon occurred in the highest ticket category, namely VVIP, which is priced up to IDR 9.5 million. This category was actually the first to be completely booked by loyal fans within just ten minutes of sales opening. (Ant/Z-1)
