Tis the season for Handel’s Messiah! This year’s CCP production—part of the Philippine Philharmonic Orchestra’s 38th concert season—came after a pandemic delay, and features a 200-member choir, as well as a sparkling roster of soloists, all under the baton of Maestro Mark Carpio. On MAESTRO FILIPINO, PPO Orchestra Director Eugene Delos Santos joins DZFE’s Daniel to talk about how this grand production came about, and came together.

MAESTRO FILIPINO is DZFE's program on the Philippine classical music scene.
