Philippine Arts and Culture: |
|
A force for renewal
and progress |
|

their own culture as wrought by the best artists: the Lam-Ang folk
epic, the Zarzuela musical and the Comedia in Laoag, Ilocos; dance
concert tours from Cagayan Valley to Tuguegarao; Balagtasan—our
indigenous spoken word—as well as ballet and neo-ethnic music at
Manila’s Rizal Park; and animation and design on the world wide
Web.
