UP Symphonic Band - Lahing Kayumanggi | Lucio D. San Pedro

In his works, San Pedro paid homage to the physical grandeur of his country, as reflected by his town Angono, which typifies the national soul. It is perhaps in his symphonic work “Lahing Kayumanggi,” originally composed for the symphonic band in 1961, that the articulation of his philosophy, “creative nationalism,” is best exemplified. The work is dedicated to the heroic struggle of the Filipino people for liberation from colonization. It is built on the first four notes of the folk song “Bahay Kubo,” the symbol of the masses. The dedication he inscribed on the score of this great work is telling: “I have always attempted to immortalize the virtues and aspirations of the masses whom I believe are the pillars of the nation. I have placed them on a pedestal for everyone to emulate, and putting them on a pedestal is not an easy task. I want them to be revered, and, as such, the manner of emulating them cannot be done through a vulgar approach, but rather through utmost creativity.” - Philippine Daily Inquirer ______________________________ UPSB in Sandaang Taon ng Himig at Tinig: Pagpupugay ng UP Kolehiyo ng Musika Abelardo Hall Auditorium UP College of Music 4 September 2016 UP Symphonic Band Rodney Ambat, conductor
