Musica FEUropa 12, virtual concerts this May 2021

MUSICA FEUROPA 12 -
A VIRTUAL CHORAL FESTIVAL 
AND CONCERT OF CHAMPIONS 
ALL SET FOR MAY 15, 22, 29 and 30

Musica FEUROPA,
Far Eastern University’s annual choral festival with the European Union Delegation in the Philippines as its principal partner proudly presents
Musica FEUropa 12, 
a virtual series of concerts 
for the first time on 
May 15, 22, 29 and 30, 2021.

Musica FEUROPA 12 
will celebrate the power of music 
with choral groups sharing 
their virtual performances 
to showcase both Philippine and European pieces for the 
public to see, hear and enjoy.

Musica FEUROPA 
aims to elevate the standards of participating choirs by using the European guidelines for competitions. It prepares Filipino choirs to participate in European choral competitions and fosters an openness to cultural exchange. 
 
The main purpose of Musica FEUROPA is to make it one of the definitive festivals in the choral circuit, first in the Philippines, then in the world: 
 
--- To promote the European Union in the Philippines, particularly through its music during the European Union Month of May; 
--- To expose Filipino choirs to the works of European composers; and 
--- To give equal importance to the works of Filipino composers. 

As in previous years, 
highly respected Adjudicators 
from the Philippine choral circuit 
will be present in the first three concerts to provide constructive feedback to each of the selected choirs.

The adjudicators are as follows:
Anna Abeleda-Piquero, 
Mark Anthony Carpio, 
Dr. Ed Manguiat, 
Ramon Lijauco, Jr., 
Jonathan Velasco, and
Dr. Maria Theresa Vizconde-Roldan.

Some of these adjudicators 
will return for the finale on May 30 
to conduct their choir in 
the Concert of Champions.

The latter will feature various 
Filipino choirs who have won 
not just in Musica FEUROPA 
but bigger competitions in the Philippines and abroad.

Invited choirs will submit videos 
of past or virtual performances 
of one piece in an official EU language by a composer from the EU, 
one in any Filipino language 
or dialect by someone of Filipino descent and the 
Ode to Joy in German. 

Musica FEUROPA 12 will happen via Zoom.

All Musica FEUropa 12 concerts will also be posted on its YouTube Channel
and that of the FEU Center for the Arts.

Musica FEUROPA 12
is also brought to you by 98.7 DZFE, official media partner.
