The second season of Sonic Entanglements entitled “Dari Akar ke Mekar,” (Indonesian for “From roots to blossoms”) is hosted and produced by Gardika Gigih. In this four-part series, Gardika traces how field recordings of Philippine traditional music cultures inspire new works by Filipino contemporary composers. This episode, and the two forthcoming ones, expands on the role of sound archives and their role in reimagining the future of Philippine musical heritage through contemporary compositions. In this second episode, Gardika interviews Ramon Santos, a pioneering Filipino composer and ethnomusicologist. Together, they discuss Dr. Santos' creative process, his experiences with the Ibaloi community in northern Philippines, and the ways in which Southeast Asian music traditions continue to inspire new modes of artistic expression today.

 

Sonic Entanglements Season 2 is hosted and produced by Gardika Gigih during his research fellowship at the University of the Philippines Center for Ethnomusicology (UPCE), funded by the EU-JPICH Project Decolonizing Southeast Asian Sound Archives (DeCoSEAS).
