For the modern music era song, Beatrice performed the Indonesian poetic song Gita Malam (Badjuri, Djauhari). This was the first time an Indonesian poetic song was presented at the LYM Awards. Gita Malam complemented the performances of Ave Verum Corpus (Mozart), Lachen und Weinen (Schubert), and Nel cor più non mi Sento (Paisiello).
The achievements until today have been fully supported by many parties, namely the music supervising teachers, school leaders, institutions, and the extended family.
