More Info:
The Philippines is rich in musical folklore. We have many varied and almost unknown folk songs, ranging from those of true Philippine origin to others that show Spanish, Chinese, and Malayan influences. These are the very songs that we have dutifully preserved out of our tangible past....musical relics, so to speak, to our roots as a people. We love to sing these songs in the folk manner and tradition of our country because these are the same songs our forefathers have sung for many generations. We keep these songs forever aglow in our hearts and mind because they have already become a part of us and our history. Folk Songs are genuine mementoes of a nation's rich and glorious past. They help trace back the lifeline to that c- •
