About this listen

"If you strike a kulintang, you begin to join yourself with your ancestors. You've been awakened." - Edru Abraham, founder of Kontemporaryong Gamelan Pilipino (Kontra-GaPi), the resident ethnic music and dance ensemble of the College of Arts and Letters, UP Diliman.

In part one of his conversation with sociologist, writer, and leading public intellectual Randy David, Abraham talks about music that allows us to reflect on our Filipino heritage. "It forces you to consider what things were before 1521."
