ABS-CBN Philharmonic Orchestra presents A Christmas Gift

The ABS-CBN Philharmonic Orchestra gives A Christmas Gift this holiday season as they perform at the Rockwell Tent on December 16, 2012. Joining the orchestra and conductor Gerard Salonga in this special event are guests Xian Lim and K-La Rivera.

RAd and Xian Lim

Actor Xian Lim will be showcasing his piano and trombone playing skills in this concert. I met him during the opening of Moviemov: Italian Cinema Now 2012 and asked him which pieces he was going to play. He said that it would be surprise but I was able to find out from other sources that he will be playing a very popular Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart piece on the piano. An orchestra member already told me about his “beautiful butterfly fingers” during rehearsals.

K-La Rivera and RAd

K-La Rivera on the other hand will be the guest singer for this occasion. This performance comes of the heels of her recently concluded stint as Princess Jasmine in Atlantis Productions’ successful staging of Disney’s Aladdin The New Stage Musical. Unfortunately, I missed watching this production and I heard so many good things about her performance. I guess that watching her at this concert will make up for it.

Gerard Salonga and RAd

A Christmas Gift is a free show and tickets for the 2:00 PM show can be availed by checking out the Facebook and Twitter pages of the ABS-CBN Philharmonic Orchestra and Power Plant Mall.

I will never be able to forget this!
