From the music of the colonized to that of the colonizer. I'm so conflicted. Still love me a Rodrigo, though. #concertodearanjuez #joaquinrodrigo
Introducing Florante Aguilar & the Utom Ensemble debuting this June in San Francisco. Featuring music inspired from the T’boli land. @sanfranciscointernationalartsfestival @kularts
Wrote a piece for the #hangdrum as part of the new work #Utom. Will premiere this June 2019. This Instrument, invented in Switzerland in 2000, works surprisingly well with #kulintang and other Philippine indigenous instruments IMHO.
