UPCOMING Projects

A 2-CD album containing selections that will represent traditional musics from some 60 language groups of the Philippines covering north, central and southern Philippines.  The CD album shall be accompanied by well written annotation as well as illustrations, and shall also represent the extensive collection of the Center since its beginnings some 50 years ago.

Tunugan 2009 Symphony Concert  is an event to mark the 4^th death anniversary of Jose Maceda.  As a benefit concert to raise funds for the Center for Ethnomusicology, the concert is being organized as a joint project between the Center and the Japanese Embassy as a Philippine-Japan Friendship Concert. It will feature works based on Eastern Traditions: Four Orchestral Pieces by Bela Bartok, Colors Without Rhythm by Jose Maceda, L’Bad by Ramón P. Santos, and the premiere of Silence and Motion: For Dance, Drums and Orchestra by Noboru Uechi, a music specially composed for this event.  The concert will feature the Philippine Philharmonic Orchestra, with participation by a drum ensemble from Okinawa.
