Prepare to be swept away on a mesmerising journey as Sari-Sari graces the Esplanade stage once again after four long years! Immerse yourself in the captivating allure of kulintang music and dance from the Southern Philippines in a relaxed setting. The ensemble will play kulintang music in the Maranao and Maguindanaon traditions, such as Katitik Panday and Kantitagaonon (Maranao), and Binalig and Sinulog (Maguindanaon). Audiences will also be treated to an intercultural fusion of kulintang with the timeless elegance of Western classical music and the improvisational flair of jazz.
