According to National Artist Ramon Santos, PhD, “contemporary music in the Philippines refers to compositions that have adopted ideas and elements from 20th century art music in the west, as well as the latest trends and musical styles in the entertainment industry.” The modern Filipino repertoire consists of musical pieces that have been written in 20th century idioms that have evolved out of such stylistic movements as impressionism, expressionism, neo-classicism, as well as avant-garde and new music. New music are compositions which are improvisational works such as the early compositions of Dr. Ramon Santos , Radyasyon and Quadrasyon ; Josefino “Chino” Toledo’s Samut-Sari, Pintigan and Terminal Lamentations, and Jonathan Baes’ Wala and Banwa. With the European and American influences brought by our country’s colonizers, it ws inevitable that the musical style of 20th^ century Western composers found their way into Philippine compositions. The works many notable Filipino composers are evidence of this. An entire group of 20th^ Filipino song composers became popular for their musical compositions used as background music or theme songs in movies and films. What I Need To Know KKKKKNOWKNOW
Filipino composers of the 20th century contributed teir share in introducing innovative sounds. With Spain and then America having colonized the Philippines from the early 1500s to the late 1800s, it was unavoidable that Western compositional techniques found their way into the works of Filipino composers. Yet, even 20th century Filipino composers have managed to retain some traditional elements in their assimilation of Western techniques. In fact, they have become the strongest foundations of what we now know as Philippine music. Among the major Philippine contemporary composers are Francisco Buencamino Sr. , Francisco Santiago, Nicanor Abelardo, Antonio Molina, Hilarion Rubio, Col. Antonino Buenaventura, Rodolfo Cornejo, Lucio San Pedro , Rosendo Santos Jr. , Alfredo Buenaventura , and Ryan Cayabyab. NICANOR ABELARDO (1893 – 1934) Nicanor Abelardo is one of the “Triumvirate of Filipino Composers” which includes Antonio Molina and Francisco Santiago. He studied music at the Chicago Music College and was influenced by the musical styles of Schoenberg, Hindemith and Stravinsky. Abelardo developed a style that combined European romanticism with chromaticism. His compositions contain hazy tones, dissonance and unusual chordal combinations. Although a 20th century modern composer in style, he is also considered a composer in the Romantic style. His best-known compositions include Mutya ng Pasig, Nasaan Ka Irog, Cavatina for Violoncello, and Magbalik Ka Hiran.. As a composition major at the University of the Philippines, he also composed the melody for the University’s offcil anthem, U.P. Naming Mahal. The main theater of the Culturl Center of the Philippines (Tanghalang Nicanor Abelardo) and the building housing the College of Music in UP Diliman are named in his honor. He died on March 21, 1934.

The Footprints Prayer Trees by Joyce Kilmer One night I had a dream. I dreamed that I was walking along the beach with the LORD. In the beach, there were two (2) sets of footprints – one belong to me and the other to the LORD. Then, later, after a long walk, I noticed only one set of footprints. “And I ask the LORD. Why? Why? Why did you leave me when I am sad and helpless?” And the LORD replied “My son, My son, I have never left you. There was only one (1) set of footprints in the sand, because it was then that I CARRIED YOU! I think that I shall never see A poem lovely as a tree. A tree whose hungry mouth is prest Against the earth’s sweet flowing breast; A tree that looks at God all day, And lifts her leafy arms to pray; A tree that may in Summer wear A nest of robins in her hair; Upon whose bosom snow has lain; Who intimately lives with rain. Poems are made by fools like me, But only God can make a tree.
