Nsg Music Studio Presents A Century of Filipino Musical Heritage

 The NSG Music Studio Singers, a group of talented and award winning performers from the Philippines, will showcase “Musika ng Lahi,” Filipino music from the Spanish period to the present time, from the classical Kundiman to modern Pop music.  The concert will be held at the Garden Pavilion, Church of Scientology Celebrity Centre International at 5930 Franklin Avenue, Hollywood, California 90028 on Saturday, June 10, 2006 at 1:30 PM (Free Valet Parking).

The presentation is produced by NSG Music Studio, under the tutelage of Prof. Norma Sylvia Aquino-Garbanzos, B.M., M.A., Ph.D., and Arthur Madrigal, Musical Director.  The Chorale composed of 23 members includes twelve (12) soloists and seven (7) champions, backed by faculty and staff.

“The NSG Chorale was born at a time when the challenges posed by invitations (to perform in the US) were sent,” said Prof. Garbanzos, a graduate of the U.P. Conservatory of Music and the California State University of Long Beach.  “Through God's grace, we hope to bring the music of our country to Filipinos residing abroad who long to hear them.”
