LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEET

Contemporary Philippine Music

Background Information for Learners

Contemporary music in the Philippines usually refers to compositions that have

adopted ideas and elements from twentieth century art music in the West, as well as the latest
trends and musical styles in the entertainment industry. This brief introduction covers only the
works written by the art music composers.

The modern Filipino repertoire consist of pieces that have been written in twentieth century
idioms that have evolved out of such stylistic movements as impressionism, expressionism,
neo-classism, as well as the so-called avant-garde and New Music. A good number of these
works have utilized the standard formats of classical European music such as the concerto, the
symphony, the symphonic and tone poems, cantata, etc. and may therefore be broadly
categorized as neo-classic. At the same time, they have also been greatly influenced by the
textural colors of Debussy’s music and the ambiguous and “dissonant” tonalities of early
20th century expressionist compositions. Moreover, the sounds of non-Western instruments
have been added to the tonal fabric.

Filipino composers are grouped according to their musical styles. Among the major
contemporary composers who used traditional styles 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.

Composers of experimental New Music in the Philippines include Jose Maceda,

Lucrecia Kasilag, Ramon Santos, Manuel Maramba, Jerry Dadap, Francisco Feliciano,
Josefino “Chino” Toledo, and Jonas Baes. These composers retained the Filipino spirit by
incorporating traditional music forms as well as indigenous rhythms and instruments in their
compositions.

LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEET

SELECTIONS OF CONTEMPORARY PHILIPPINE MUSIC

Background Information for Learners

“People are always challenged by the fact that “no one understands them” or know how
they ‘really feel’, so they turn to music. ... Music also has the capacity to imitate emotions.”

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.”

In Philippine Contemporary Music, three groups of composers are apparent: (1) the
20th Century Traditional Composers; (2) the New Music Composers; and (3) the Song
Composers

The 20th Century Traditional Composers

Due primarily to the Spanish and American rule for over three centuries in our country,
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.

Thus, composers of this group received awards and each of them has its own unique
musical styles and forms or if not, has the same or similar to other composers that made them
the national artists for music during their times and to mention, some of their works and
techniques are as follows:

kundiman: In the Philippines, kundiman is a type of love song existed since the early
19th century. But in the early 20th century Kundiman had developed into an art song. The
term Kundiman comes from the Tagalog phrase “kung hindi man” or “if it were not so”. These
folksongs were subtly patriotic but typically disguised as classical love songs. Filipinos, in their
long struggle against an oppressive Spanish regime, saw it as a tool that would ultimately unite
Filipino revolutionaries to wage war against the Spaniards in 1896 during the Spanish-
American War. Indeed, the song is in the triple meter that starts in a minor key then modulates
to its parallel or relative major key, and the song characterized by smooth flowing lines and
beautiful melodies.

Chromaticism: (from Greek chroma, “colour”) in music, the use of notes foreign to the
mode or diatonic scale upon which a composition is based. A diatonic scale is best understood
as one which moves through pitch letter names in sequence, without skipping any letters,
applying accidentals to certain pitches so as to create a pattern of whole steps and half steps.

Sarzuela: In the Philippines, the sarswela is a play with songs and dances usually
written in prose, containing from one to five acts, depicting the vagaries of romantic love
among idealized Filipino characters, and often incorporating contemporary social, political,
economic or cultural issues for relevance and interest

Opera: Art and music form in which singers and musicians perform a dramatic work
combining text (called libretto) and a musical score , usually in an elaborate theatrical setting
(opera house). Dialogue is entirely sung and not spoken. It started in the 19th century featuring
themes such as romance, deceit, murder and a lot more. The demands in vocal skill are far
higher and opera singers have to be able to project.

Thus, the 20th century traditional music includes:

Francisco B. Buencamino Sr. (1883-1952) received the posthumous award honored him with
the title “Outstanding Composer”. He wrote several Zarzuelas and kundimans.

Francisco Santiago (1889-1947) kown as the “Father of the Kundiman” and belongs to the
“Triumvirate of Filipino Composers.” Santiago’s music was Romantic in style, incorporating
western forms and techniques with folk materials. He composed several works such as:
kundiman, symphonies, piano concertos, and other music pieces for the piano, violin, and
voice.

Nicanor Abelardo (1893-1934) is one of the Triumvirate of Filipino Composers and

developed a style that combined European romanticism with chromaticism. His compositions
contain hazy tones, dissonance, and unusual chordal combinations He is known for redefining
the kundiman, bringing the form to art-song status.

Antonio J. Molina (1894-1980) came to be the” Father of Philippine Impressionist Music,”

and is considered one of the “Triumvirate Filipino Composers.” Molina wrote several
compositions for piano, violin, and voices as well as the Zarzuela.

Hilarion Rubio Y Francisco (1902-1985) was closely identified with his works for the
orchestra, conductor for opera, ballet, dance recitals, and music for movies.

Col. Antonino Buenaventura (1904-1996), a National Artist for music in 1988 and a multi-
awarded musician. He promoted Philippine music by extensively using folk materials in his
works. He recorded folk and dance music around the country with Ramon Tolentino and
National Artist for Dance Francisca Reyes Aquino. He composed the music and did the
notations for the folk dances as researched by Aquino.

Rodolfo S. Corneo (1909-1991), “the International Who‘s Who in Music.” He was

considered” the first Filipino composer who received an honorary degree from a government
recognized music school in the United States.” He was known for his “pianistic and
compositional talent by extemporizing a piano composition at the spur of the moment. Musical
Style of Rodolfo Cornejo range from classical to pop music.

Felipe Padilla De Leon Sr. (1912-1992) received a posthumous award as National Artist for
Music in 1997. He was known as a nationalist composer who expressed the Philippines’
cultural identity through his compositions. He wrote piano compositions, hymns, marches,
chamber music, art songs, chamber music, school songs, orchestral works, operas, kundimans
and zarzuelas.
Lucio San Pedro (1913-2002) is known as a” Romantic Natonalist,” He incorporated
Philippine folk elements in his compositions with Western forms and harmony, His chords have
a rich expressive tonality and integrated indigenous musical forms, conventions, and
instruments in his works in the modern nationalistic style.

Rosendo E. Santos Jr. (1922-1994) is listed in the “New Groves of Dictionary of Music and
Musicians.” A prolific composer, his works include concerti, sonatas, symphonies, and
symphonic poems, five operas in Philippine dialect, numerous band overtures, and more than
200 marches. He wrote 50 masses in Latin and 20 in English. He has more than 1,000 musical
compositions in the library of the University of the Philippines.

Alfredo Buenaventura (1929- ) was twice an awardee of the Republic Cultural Heritage
Award and the Outstanding Filipino Award (TOFIL) for Music in 1995. He wrote his first
composition Danza at a young age. He is among the few composers in the Philippines who
composed five full-length operas. He created a combination of contemporary and conventional,
kept his melodies simple and understandable, but he used contemporary harmonies to suit the
intellectuals.

Cipriano “Ryan” Cayabyab (1954- ) spans both popular and classical worlds with his pop,
ballads, operas, zarzuela, orchestral, and choral compositions

The New Music Composers

Composers of experimental New Music in the Philippines retained the Filipino spirit
by incorporating traditional music forms as well as indigenous rhythm and instruments in their
composition. “Indigenous music express either instrumentally or vocally or a combination of
both, music was deeply integrated with the activities of the natives. The ancient Filipinos had
music practically for all occasion for every phase of life, from birth to death.” According to
Hila, (30 October 2013).

Thus, the composers are continuously experimenting new music in the Philippines. The
New Music Composers include:

Jose Maceda (1917-2004) is the first legitimate Filipino avant-garde composer. His musical
style shifted when he encountered the music of the indigenous tribes of Mindoro in 1953. He
then embarked on his life’s work, dedicated to the understanding and preservation of Filipino
traditional music.
Lucrecia Kasilag (1918-2008) compositional style demonstrated a fusion of Eastern and
Western styles in using instruments, melody, harmony, and rhythm. She is particularly known
for incorporating indigenous Filipino instruments into orchestral production.

Ramon Santos (1941- ) compositional style features chromaticism, music seria, and
electronic components, combined with indigenous Philippine music elements
Fr. Manuel Maramba OSB (1936- ) is best known as a liturgical composer whose body of
works lean towards religious figures and events. His versatility as a pianist, composer, arranger,
theorist, and teacher is widely recognized in the local musical scene

Jerry Dadap (1935- ) is the first Filipino composer to conduct his own works at the Carnegie
Recital Hall in New york City.
Francisco Feliciano (1942-2014) is one of Asia’s leading figures in liturgical music, having
composed hundreds of liturgical pieces, mass settings, hymns, and songs for worship.

Josefino Toledo (1959- ) is the founding music director of the Metro Manila Community
Orchestra, the UP Festival Orchestra, and the Crosswave Symphony Orchestra. He is noted for
conducting the premiere performances of the works of Filipino composers as well as other
Asian composers. His own music has been performed by well-known international artists and
ensembles.

Jonas Baes (1961- ) is an Associate Professor in Composition and Theory,

ethnomusicologist, cultural activist, and writer, has explored innovative territories and unusual
musical treatments in his works.
Song Composers

Song composers became popular with their musical compositions used as musical
background or theme songs in movies and films.Together, they had produced a memorable
output of traditional Filipino love songs, music for the movies, and materials for contemporary
arrangements and concert repertoire. To name them:

Levi Celerio (1910-2002) made it to the Guinnes Book of World Records for being the only
person to make music with a leaf.

Constancio de Guzman (1903-1982) was acknowledged as the “Dean of Filipino movie

composers and musical directors.” He is the composer of the nationalistic song Bayan Ko.

Miguel “Mike” Velarde Jr. (1913-1986) was a composer, conductor, and musical director.
He composed the popular song Dahil Sa Iyo in 1938. In 1975, the Philippine Government
Cultural Association awarded him the Cultural Achievement Award in Popular Music.

Ernani Cuenco (1936-1988) was a composer, film scorer, musical director, and music teacher.
He was hailed as a National Artist in Music in 1999. His works embody the Filipino sense of
musicality. The classical sound of the kundiman is evident in some of his ballads. Up to this
day, his compositions are popular and well-loved.

Restituto “Restie” Umali (1916-1998) was a composer, teacher, and musical arranger. He
arranged the Philippine National anthem and the local classic. He wrote a total of more or less
120 movie theme songs. He composed more than 250 scores for movies.

George Canseco (1934-2004) was considered a “nationally acclaimed composer of numerous

popular Filipino classics.” He composed songs for Filipino singers and movie stars.

Angel Peña (1921-2014) is a classical and jazz composer, musical arranger, and bass player.
He is widely considered by modern Filipino jazz musicians as “one of the founders of
traditional jazz in the Philippines.

Leopoldo Silos Sr. (1925-2015) was a composer, singer, and musical arranger. He composed
and recorded romantically soulful songs. He was the award winning musical director of the
television musical AawitanKita.
Santiago Suarez (1901-1964) was an accomplished composer of traditional Filipino love
songs. His popular works include Dungawin Mo Hirang, Bakya Mo Neneng, Caprichosa, Sa
Libis Ng Nayon and Katakataka.
In addition, why is it so important to study contemporary music? This allows us to
generate new art and contribute to the global music community. Through playing new music
we, music lovers, are able to find our own voice and play music that is meaningful to us.

Lastly, the variety of musical forms, styles, repertoires, and traditions that exist mirror
the rich diversity in Filipino culture. Fortunately, until today, these rich
indigenous musical traditions live on. They serve as a reminder of the Filipinos' long history
of musical talent and ingenuity.

Philippines refers to compositions that have adopted ideas and elements from 20 th century art
music in the West, as well as the latest trends and musical styles in the entertainment industry.

When we talk about traditional music, it is the music of the Philippines from the
twentieth century specifically up to the present music, in particular in which composers have
their own style in composing music, as well Filipino composers have managed to retain some
traditional elements in their assimilations of Western techniques. In fact, they have become the
strongest foundations of what we now know as Philippine music.

Another category of contemporary Philippine music is New Music composers. New

music does not literally mean as “modern music;” it is the used of new styles and techniques
in music incorporating various music, such as ethnic and electronic music, and other forms of
music. New music composers have different approaches in composing music but not limited
to the usual or common methods.

Lastly, Filipino song composers, musicians and lyricists have also produced a
memorable output of traditional Filipino love songs, music for the movies, and materials for
contemporary arrangements and concert repertoire.
