Tunog Natin! OPM concert Series at Market! Market!

Tweet

AFTER the tremendous success of its first two concerts, “Tunog Natin! An OPM Concert Series” is back with yet another free musical gathering at Market! Market! in Bonifacio Global City (BGC) on October 21.

“Tunog Natin!” is a campaign that aims to revive the Filipinos’ interest for local artists and their records. The third leg of the concert coincides with the launch of Avida Land Corp.’s Avida CityFlex Towers BGC and Avida Towers 34^th Street BGC.

“Tunog Natin 3 has a new set of performers that represent various music genres such as pop, rock, and RnB. This event is going to show how rich and diverse OPM is,” says gold record awardee Myrus, who is also the Project Head of Tunog Natin.

Myrus will be performing in the latest leg of Tunog Natin, together with some of the most inspiring artists that have the same passion for promoting and cultivating OPM.

Performers include multitalented artist Noel Cabangon who is known for his breakthrough radio hit Kanlungan and his album Byahe that has reached platinum status.

Philippines’ Queen of Soul Jaya will also be there. She emerged in the local music industry in the 90s with her chart-topping songs and continues to record radio-friendly and easy-listening love songs.

Pop-rock artist Miguel Escueta is also set to deliver an intense and entertaining performance during the concert.

There is also going to be a performance from former Orange and Lemons front man Mcoy Fundales, who is now the vocalist of the band Kenyo, as well as MCA Music’s newest musical gem Tricia Garcia.

Superband Franco will also be rocking the stage of Tunog Natin 3 with their smashing hits such as Cast Away and This Gathering. Sony Music’s rock band Letter Day Story is also going to take part in the event.

Seasoned rock band The Dawn is likewise going to perform in this leg of Tunog Natin. This is the second time that the band will join the advocacy. 

Electronica pop band Techy Romantics and four-piece band Moonstar 88 that popularized the songs Torete and Migraine will also be joining the lineup.

Now on its third leg, Avida Land shows no sign of slowing down in campaigning for our beloved Pinoy music.

“We really hope that more people will join the advocacy of saving and flourishing OPM. It’s not yet too late as long as artists and Filipino audiences will work together,” says Tess Tatco, Avida Land marketing manager.

Tunog Natin 3 is presented with support from official media partners Pinas FM 95.5 and Net 25; official clothing sponsor Tomato; Maxwell House Coffee and Aquabest.

The Sound of Music

Tweet

Be enchanted by the world’s beloved musical as Resorts World Manila brings back The Sound of Music starting October 15, 2011 at the Newport Performing Arts Theater; featuring a powerhouse cast of theater veterans and most promising newcomers guaranteed to beguile you in this timeless tale of love.

Based on a book by Howard Lindsay and Russel Crouse, a musical by Richard Rodgers with lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II, The Sound of Music showcases the story of Maria Rainer, a young postulant appointed as governess over the seven children of widower Captain Georg von Trapp. Maria takes on the role of a mother to her charges, teaches them the art of music and singing, and captivates the heart of the once cold and stern captain.

The Sound of Music Cast:

Joanna Ampil as Maria Rainer

London’s West End actress Joanna Ampil will lead the roster of characters to play the vibrant and impressionable postulant, Maria Rainer, who will change the lives of the Trapp Family Singers. Having made countless international appearances in film and television, including Miss Saigon, Hair, and Les Miserables, Joanna’s performance as the new Maria is certainly something to look forward to. 

Playing as Joanna Ampil's alternate is Cris Villonco. Fresh from her portrayal as Maria Clara of Noli Me Tangere, we will witness her talent as she transforms from being the shy Maria Clara to the free-spirited Maria Rainer.

Audie Gemora as Captain Georg von Trapp

Reliving the character of Austrian Navy Captain Georg von Trapp will be the “King of Philippine Theater.” Audie Gemora is currently the head of talent management of ABC channel 5. He will grace the stage as the unaffectionate widower and father of seven children, eventually falling in love with Maria.

Taking a breather from the corporate world to alternate for the male lead role will be Ed Feist, and Broadway actor and World Champion of Performing Arts 2006 Jon Joven.

Tanya Manalang as Liesl von Trapp

Tanya Manalang brings life into the character of Liesl, alternated by Rachel Coates. While going through the challenges of first love, witness the eldest daughter of Captain von Trapp as she performs her own version of Sixteen Going on Seventeen.

Paolo Ocampo as Friedrich von Trapp

Playing as the fourteen-year old quiet son of the captain is Paolo Ocampo. Also alternating for the role as Friedrich von Trapp is Luis Nieto.

Rebecca Coates as Louisa von Trapp

With Danielle Sanghio as the able alternate, Rebecca Coates will be portraying the role of Louisa von Trapp, the thirteen-year old daughter who often plays tricks on Maria and pretends to be her other sisters.

Anton Posadas as Kurt von Trapp

Kurt von Trapp is the eleven-year old outspoken son who always questions Maria. Giving justice to the role will be Anton Posadas, with alternates Roberto Sison and Justin Sian.

Atasha Muhlach as Brigitta von Trapp

Sharing the role with Janina Punzalan and Alessandra Allado, Atasha Muhlach, daughter of veteran actor Aga Muhlach and former beauty queen Charlene Gonzales, will be under the spotlight as the sharp-witted Brigitta von Trapp.

Alida Moberg as Marta von Trapp

The role of Marta will be portrayed by Alida Moberg, with alternates Paula Therese Zamesa and Sofia Yabyabin. Marta is the sixth and very shy von Trapp child who will be the first to like Maria.

Alexa Villaroel as Gretl von Trapp

With alternate Shanti Gleason, Alexa Villaroel will portray the charming daughter of Captain von Trapp. Gretl is also the youngest among the seven children.
