Join Samahan Rondalla Trio featuring singer Kim Kalanduyan performing a free concert of folk songs from the Philippines at La Mesa Library.
Tracing its origins from Spain and Latin America, Rondalla music is a localized genre popular for special occasions among Filipinos. Come experience the lilting sounds of the banduria (14-stringed mandolin) and the guitar accompanying songs expressing the simplicity of life in the village and the nostalgia of old Manila. Musicians include Bernard Ellorin, Kim Kalanduyan, and Marlo Campos.
