May you compose more beautiful songs for the world to sing . ❤
woooh! Goosebumps! All the surprises in this chorale - the hand bells, the short screams, foot stomping, and your amazing native attire. I just feel so proud of you Lawrence.
This is another masterpiece you've done which is so exciting to watch, full of surprises from within the chorale! The hand bells, the foot stomping, the short shrieks and cackles that add to the color of the message. Then there is that native tribal piece you wore. It's like watching two dimensions as it brings Mindanao on an American stage. Finally, I am at awe with the movements of your conducting. It's literally a dance. It's like sign language with a choreography. This video just makes my heart swell with pride. Hopefully you also upload a video of the rehearsal like you did with Rosas Pandan. That was just awesome. Your passion and hard work and deep understanding and purpose of what you are doing just draws us into how hard chorale work and conducting work really is. Mabuhay ka, Lawrence. 💖💖
as an Antiqueña, "Kruhay" is not limited to just this meaning. we shout it during Binirayan festival, and is also a form of agreeing, an "amen", a greeting, a joyous shout.
Is this song Kinaray-a or Karay- a. What is the proper spelling BTW. My parents are from Dao Antique. They used to send me there during school beaks. Learned about TUMAWO when my auntie used to scare me to get home by 6pm 😊
Love it. You shared our folklore song specially our native language in the Philippines. So proud I cried and I have goosebumps each time your chorale sing it. May God bless you more and praise you. You made us proud for keeping to love our filipino s💛💛💛💛👍👍👍👏👏👏👏🌺🌺🌺👋
I'm not from Antique, I am an Ilonggo. However, I understand most of the lyrics since Kinaray-a/Karay-a has similarities to Hiligaynon. This sounds like it is from heaven.
I love this piece. hehehe It brings me joy to see foreign choirs/artists sing Filipino pieces. Though they sing in a quite romantic style, they still sound so good.
Truly amazing! This song composed by my good college frienf from the University of San Agustin, Benny Castillon, tells of a bittersweet story of our island, Panay Island, in the Philippines... It gave me goosebumps just listening to these fantastic voices...
They could definitely do Doxologia Arr. Matthew Maniano! Philippine Madrigals did it in Busan but I believe you guys can do this piece justice as well!
Kruhay is a different levels, very challenging arrangements a good conductor is not enough it must be a really great conductor to give justice to the piece congratulations to the choir and to Lawrence
Lawrence manifested a shaman... summoning the deep spirit within ... to find its way in such beautiful ethnic, exotic sound via d choir... great team... bravoo!!
Ngayon ko lang narinig at napanood, ang husay ng mga musikero at conductor at ang pagkaayos ng piyesa! I have to look up the story y meaning of the song yet.Salamat pô!
A product of hard work and dedication is apparent in this rendition of Kruhay which was made more interesting because it was performed by a foreign choir. Congratulations!
“Kruhay!” does not always mean long-live, and I say this as an Antiqueño who speaks Kinaray-a. It has the same multiple meanings as “aloha”. We shout Kruhay! when we celebrate, agree with someone, have fun, etc. 😊
Kiniray-a is the language/ dialect spoken somewhere in the southern half of Antigue province in the western side / edge of Panay island. If you look at the map, Antique's geographical shape is long. There MIGHT be some variations moving from north to south and the other way around.
Kinaray-a is my mother tongue... This is the original language of Panay Island in the Philippines... The song tells the story of how our island was bartered for a golden 'sadok' (a kind of wide-brimmed hat) and a string of pearls, so long that when worn on the neck it touches the ground with its length (manangyad)...
It’s a great effort to assemble this chorale group with no knowledgeable depth of understanding the every lyric of the song. It was good that conductor Lawrence Laureano managed to make them understand and embraced the melodies and lyrics as their own music! Bravo!
Philippine choral pieces are difficult but colorful! You nailed it! 🥳👍🏻🥰
Congratulations!.The composer of KRUHAY is my friend from Iloilo City Sir Beny Castillon.

Kruhay means Long Live, is a native greeting of the people from Antique, a province in Panay Island in the Philippines....

Aloha from Hawaii! So proud of you and love your channel! Hopefully we'll get to see you and your chorus perform in Hawaii!
One of the most beauiful choir who sings so beautifully with a filipino conducting. Excellent!
So glad I witnessed this live during Meister's Paglayag tour here in Davao last July 2024. Thank you for creating this masterpiece, Sir Nilo🥳🫶
