UP Engineering Choir 2019 "Ilang tulog ba pa?"

"There's a fire starting in my heart," sings Adele. Talking to several choir members of the UP Engineering Choir, that perhaps is the compelling reason for them to memorize, vocalise, practice, sacrifice. Balancing with their academic pursuit, family relations, personal agenda, joining a choir to sing and to blend with a group was an effort.


"Nobody says it was easy," says Coldplay but they pulled it through at the David Consunji Theater at UP Diliman last 5 December 2019 with their Eng' G Choir In Encore "Ilang Tulog Pa Ba?" There is the exam tomorrow, Typhoon Tisoy yesterday, the class suspensions this week; these did not get in the way to mount the concert.

Perfection for a singing and artistic performance was not expected from a group studying a  technical field. But the fact that excellence in performing, the same value that drives them to study well was embedded in them for the fire in their hearts made the night truly memorable particularly for them, their college and to us the audience.

Philippe Freznosa  in accepting the UP EC presidency just this September 2019 had three interests: the choir holds, remaining solid and intact, his leadership learning and personal growth. After the last encore "Munting Sanggol" he perhaps realized he achieved them all.

Thank you for sharing with us your music.

Encore! Hanggang sa susunod.
