NICANOR ABELARDO

(1893 – 1934)

Abelardo developed a style that combined European romanticism with

chromaticism. His compositions contain hazy tones, dissonance and

unusual chordal combinations found in such works as Cinderella

Overture, Panoramas, and a violin sonata. Although a 20th century

modern composer in style, he is also considered a composer in the

Romantic style. His best-known compositions includeMutya ng Pasig,

Nasaan Ka Irog, Cavatina for Violoncello, and Magbalik Ka Hirang.

MUTYA NG PASIG

Music and Lyrics by Nicanor Abelardo

Antonio J. Molina (Music) / Levi Celerio

(Lyrics)

Molina was a product of both the Romantic and Impressionist schools of

thought. He was fascinated by the dynamics and harmonies of Debussy,

but retained much of the Romantic style in his melody. A characteristically

impressionist work is his piano work Malikmata (Transfiguration). The

mysteriously exotic chords of this piece gradually lead to a lyrical melody,

with the traditional harmonies abruptly returning to the initial mood.

Molina wrote several compositions for piano, violin, and voice as well as a

Spanish-style opera form known as the zarzuela.

LUCIO SAN PEDRO

(1913 – 2002)

National Artist for Music

Lucio San Pedro is known as a “romantic nationalist.” He incorporated

Philippine folk elements in his compositions with Western forms and

harmony. His chords have a rich expressive tonality, as represented in his

well-loved Sa Ugoy ng Duyan, a lullaby melody sung by his mother.
