Music from Frozen and Tangled in ABS-CBN Philharmonic Orchestra’s second Disney concert

Led by the music from more recent animated features like Frozen and Tangled, the ABS-CBN Philharmonic Orchestra brings once again the timeless music of Disney in Tale as Old as Time this November 8, 2014, 8:00 PM and November 9, 2014, 2:00 PM at the Cultural Center of the Philippines’ Tanghalang Nicanor Abelardo (CCP Main Theater).

Last year’s concert Magical Music of Disney was purely an orchestral music affair (accompanied by video clips of Disney films) with the show’s host Nikki Gil performing a very special song number only at the very end. With Tale as Old as Time, the orchestra along with its principal conductor/music director Gerard Salonga will be joined by performers from the world of musical theater and more.

Announced performers include Karylle, Sam Concepcion, Morissette, Red Concepcion, Caisa Borromeo, Carla Guevara-Laforteza, Camille Santos, Julia Concio, Vocal Synergy, and with the special participation of Bituin Escalante. Jillian Ita-as and Antonio Ferrer (who was impressive in San Andres B.) join the cast after getting the thumbs up in their respective auditions.

Aside from Tangled and Frozen, with the latter film’s soundtrack topping the Billboard charts, the concert will also feature music from Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, The Little Mermaid, The Lion King, The Princess and the Frog, The Jungle Book, Hercules, and more. An exclusive Disney animated short specifically prepared for the production will also be shown.

The big question for me is whether Gerard will dance again while conducting one of the up-tempo tunes in the concert. As always, one has to watch the concert to find out the answer.
