The Philippine Madrigal Singers have been
privileged and blessed in their travels – seeing the beautiful
sights of the world and witnessing the beautiful spirits of the
people they met.
In celebration of the reflections of
greatness in the human soul, the Philippine Madrigal Singers
have reached out to choirs from all walks of life with the Madz
Et Al network since 1981. This year, the Madz recognize the
Filipino’s own reflection of wonder with "Voyages: A Wonderful
World of Music," a musical festival continuing the tradition in
cooperation with the Philippine American Life and General
Insurance Company.
Running until May 12 at the Philamlife
Theater, UN Avenue Manila, the festival begins at 7p.m. each
evening and features various choirs from all over the
Philippines.
May 8 brings us the Philippine Male Singers
(Robert Delgado), Lifeline Chorale (Warlito Yalung), Anima
Christi Chorale (Joel Boragay), St. John Mary Vianney Parish
Choir (Marivic Llamas), and UP Los Banos Chorale Ensemble (Joey

On the next day, May 9, audiences will
