Cooky Chua collaborated with The Manila String Machine at the Linggo Ng Musikang Pilipino
It
was a rainy Sunday afternoon but the shoppers at Powerplant Mall was in for a
treat as Cooky Chua, together with the The Manila String Machine serenaded them
with old Manila hits that so pleased the crowd.
The
performance was one of the Linggo Ng Musikang Pilipino (LMP) record-breaking
70+ music showcases held in various venues all over the country.
Presented
by Organisasyon ng Pilipinong Mang-aawit (OPM) and National Commission for
Culture and the Arts (NCCA), the multi-platform celebration succeeded in its
commitment to offering a broad spectrum of Filipino music talents to a diverse
audience, transforming public spaces such as malls and train stations into music
performance spectacles and curating top-notch performances in bars, concert
halls, theatres, and multimedia outlets.
Cooky
Chua’s performance with The Manila String Machine bring back nostalgic songs
that was enjoyed by the crowd a standout mini concert from the get go. The combination
of alt-rock and jazz songstress Cooky Chua and The Manila String Machine is a
soothing but elegantly produced number that instantly wowed both the crowd and
the curious bystanders in the mall.
With
a well-curated music program and a bigger fifth year run, Linggo Ng Musikang Pilipino is poised to become a staple
multi-genre festival with longer staying power and undeniable impact. Here’s
hoping for more years of support and love.
