An exciting video project featuring five Philippine composers is coming your way Saturday, Oct. 16 at 7:30 p.m. PST (Sunday, Oct. 17 at 10:30 a.m. Philippine Standard Time) on Facebook Live. FASO’s commissioned composers Jem Talaroc, Melissa Orquiza, Nhick Pacis, Nilo Alcala, and Saunder Choi, to each synthesize five iconic Philippine and American folk songs and themes.

At “A Summer Symphony With FASO” on Saturday, Aug. 3, at 7 p.m., we’ll have the treat of playing this artist’s arrangement of “Leron, Leron Sinta.” Under the spotlight this week as we get ready for our debut at The Music Center’s Walt Disney Concert Hall is composer, conductor and tenor Saunder Choi.
