The Bayanihan Dance Company, which had a 67-city U.S. tour in 1961, here presents a collection of Filipino folk music, supported by the rondalla string ensemble. “Dahil Sa Iyo,” popular during World War II in the Pacific (1941–1945), reminds audiences of music’s role in times of conflict, and songs like “Lulay” speak to desire and love, as the singer describes a maiden’s beauty and character. Other songs on this recording include the Philippine national anthem and “Magtanim Ay Di Biro,” referred to as “the king of all Filipino folk songs.”

Liner notes include song lyrics in Tagalog with the national anthem in Tagalog, Spanish, and English.
