I wonder why @7:04 its two counts short. Usually its four counts of each beat between switching from the five and seven count. But here there’s only two counts of the the seven before switching back to the five!
The dance that preceded the "Singkil" is called "Asik". A dance performed solo by the female attendant of the princess to atone for her wrongdoings and please the datu.
pareng jojo pakisabi kay rene kung gusto ba nyang mag sgt at arms sa congress para tulongan mo kay act cis na sya ang ilagay dahil need ng congress ng mabait na tao para tumaas ang moral ng mga security personnel dito please pare
Being muslim doesn't follow arabic traditions. That's why major muslim countries preserve their culture, look at Malaysia, Indonesia, Brunei, Turkey, Oman....
A superb performance as expected of the primary Philippine dance troup Bayanihan. The royal dance is well choreographed, unclutered unlike some regional dance troups. It faithfully tells a story of the royal couple. Unlike other dance troups dancing Singkil, it is not crowded with too many dancers. It is tribute to the original leaders of the Bayanihan that has stringent standards to choose only the best dancers to perform for the company. I believe it was Ms. Helena Benitez and Ms Lucrecia Kasilag who were prime movers of this much acclaimed, world class dance company, the Bayanihan.
Thank you for uploading this. My mom was part of the 1980 tour, and I've been trying to find that one somewhere online. No luck finding a 1980 one yet, but I am still hopeful.
Mas maganda yung Leyte Dance company lalo na livelier yung music especially sa gong at energetic,maliksi sa steps sa bamboo mga Leyte dancers.. kaysa Bayanihan dance company..
Beautiful! The people finding the title insulting is just sad though. Please accept our muslim brothers and sisters in the South, they’re culture is unique and should be included, their identity as Muslims should be accepted also. I don’t like the idea of preserving peoples culture while dismissing their identity.
thats right, why most Filipinos can't accept them, and now they want Sabah where the people are Muslim, that will make it difficult for them in their own country.
I’ve known this group since I was a kid. They were invited in our town fiesta. I’m a fan since then. They are really amazig til now👏 proud to be Filipino. Tumatak sa memory ko ang Singkil dance nila 😄
Magaling sila Pero ang dancers nila kulang kulang Kaya Hindi sila makakuha ng support sa mga Filipino. 6 or 7 dancers lamb yata sila the whole time everytime nag to tour sila. Kawawa ginagawa nila nakakapagod sila lahat
Congratulations on your 64th anniversary, Bayanihan Dance Company! Just saw this video. Thank you Jojo Menorca for sharing. This performance is as spectacular as I remember. Please continue to be cultural ambassadors.
Yes. But others claiming it wasn't. Singkil is the pride of the Maranao tribe. Even the Maguindanaon tribe love singkil and they perform this on big wedding occasions and I've seen a lot of singkil versions and oh the beautiful and wonderful clothing🙂. This is one of the best I've seen here since living in Mindanao.
