Composer Florante Aguilar tells a compelling story of resolute courage, passionate love, and sacrifice. Lalawigan is a poetic narrative inspired by the fierce 1898 Philippine revolutionary hero, Macario Sakay, the ever present mythic town ghost, Didang, and the common folk - the backbone of the revolution. Lalawigan is sung in ancient Tagalog (with English supertitles) accompanied by new compositions evoking the sensuous eloquence of the Tagalog Balagtasan poetry form and the virtuosity of the Philippine string tradition of kundiman, harana and kudyapi.
