'ASWANG is inspired by Philippine ghost stories that we enjoyed telling each other when we were growing up in the province. I wanted those creatures to come alive and tell their own stories from their point of view.' Florante Aguilar, Composer

Join us for this concert of music exploring the fantastic creatures of Pilipino legends and ghost stories, imaginatively told from the creatures’ point of view. Written and sung in classic Tagalog, Aguilar's composition innovates the Pilipino traditional harana and kundiman musical forms into a contemporary framework.

Featuring performances by:
Florante Aguilar (Guitar), Chus Alonso (flute), Sage Baggott (percussion) and Greg Kehret (double bass)
Vocalists: Bryan Pangilinan, Giovanni Ortega, Loen Palad, and Kristine Sinajon

ASWANG is funded by the San Francisco Foundation and the San Francisco Arts Commission.
