Istorya-Kanta Kinaray-a

The last part of out itinerary for the day was the Antique Heritage Tour Soft Launching Program: Istorya-Kanta Kinaray-a with Sir Dante Beriong and Sir Sammy Rubido. 

I just had to take a photo of the University of Antique's auditorium ceiling. It's something you won't usually see in city university's auditoriums. You can really say that Antiquenos are really creative.
 
The program started with a song and dance number from Sir Dante Beriong, his good friend Sir Sammy Rubido, the reigning Lin-ay Kang Antique and the students of the University of Antique. 

The rest of the night was filled with singing, dancing, interacting, and fun. OKM (Original Kinaray-a Music) is truly something Antiquenos and we Filipinos should be proud of! The songs they played for us were all inspired by true to life happenings not only in Antique but in the country or even in the world. What I learned was that to create beautiful music, you must have the right words and the proper melody, only then you can relay the message of you song to your listeners. After every song, questions were thrown to us and whoever can give the correct answer will be given a CD of Sir Sammy which was his newly released third album. I envy those who got the prize but still, this experience was something I will always remember. Kruhay!!
