The Andres Bonifacio Concert Choir - Andres Bonifacio musical part 1

Days have passed but the effect of the Saturday concert still lingers on my memory... and ear of course. That day was the most memorable show of all shows that the Andres Bonifacio Concert Choir ever did.

The concert is supposed to start at 6pm. My dad and I waited for an hour, maybe because the cast is still waiting for their special guests. That time was also annoying for me too... I came at the concert prepared but not my health. I was shivering because of a darn flu.

Well I better get back with the topic. (I'm not going to mention all of the scenes, just those parts that got me into tears and also got me to sing since I was once a member of their choir)

The opening part.

At first I didn't get the idea of having those ringlets that the girls were holding but when I heard them sing a lively familiar tune, the theme was of a celebration like start.

The Patriotic part

This is the part were people, including us audience to stand, to give respect to the national anthem which I was clearly puzzled because the choir didn't sang it. We were only listening to the theme without the lyrics.

The: ang dakilang anak pawis song

I was really thrilled with this part. I just noticed that I am singing all throughout because darn I just miss singing this with them.

The theatrical act part (with the singing of course)

The part were the Bonifacio siblings working on their abaniko's and tungkod to sell while the women having a small conversation. Here, Nonay (the one holding a broom) asking Maxima (the one with the long hair) to help her with the chores, eventually Maxima did not help, instead, telling Nonay that she misses their mother (the singing and the crying began)

My sister in real life (the one who's portraying Nonay) came to Maxima to comfort her.

The courtship and a sudden proposal

Andres Bonifacio was really a romantic person. While dedicating his life for his country, he did have time for heart matters. He was inlove with Gregoria. Even though the girl's parents were against with the courtship (Andres was years older that Gregoria..his first wife already passed away years ago), He managed to capture the girl's heart and eventually became lovers in their own right.

Of course! The two wed.. and under the KKK rules, they must be wed infront of their comrades.. and so they did! and they gave Gregoria the title "Lakambini ng Katipunan"

As for the ending, well, due to the enchanting, melodic tune that entices me to join their singing... I did. 

They did sang some Christmas songs too after the end of this whole part.

We did enjoy the performance, except for a late start and some minor mistakes, all in all it was not so bad. They did a good shot on trying to showcase a musical despite of having a small cast.

To end this... well, my sister and my friends at Andres Bonifacio Concert Choir rocks!! Voices were so amazing, a little polish on the acting but they were cool enough to convince me to watch them at the stage.

(Darn it was good but if my flu was long gone, I might have exerted more effort onto play details.)
