i watched the homecoming concert of the philippine madrigal singers (madz) last tuesday night with fellow acm members. considering it was a tuesday, i didn't expect that the ccp main theater will be full. iba talaga ang madz. hanggang balcony 2 puno. iba kasi ang tunog ng choirs after tour. mas kapit yung tunog. syempre, concerts almost everyday tapos kayo-kayo pa yung magkasama for several weeks, ewan ko lang kung hindi pa kumapit yung tunog. hehe.
they chose the date july 11 because it is ma'am oa's birthday, the founder of the madz. they also launched their fifth album entitled 'acclamation'. the tracks in the cd are mostly religous and inspirational songs. i got my copy about a month ago.
the concert repertoire includes songs they sang during the competition, songs from their new cd and different folk songs from the countries they visited. i love the song 'comme d'habitude' (as always). grabe, i like their rendition. pati yung soloist, ang galing. excited na tuloy ako sa next concert nila - madzitawanan on october 1. hehe.
