For generations, the San Joses of Cardona have cultivated music in their community through their band, Cardona 8. But how does one keep its century-long legacy alive? Techie Ramirez—the band’s conductor since 2016—tells us on MAESTRO FILIPINO. With DZFE’s Daniel, she also shares the band’s history and milestones, as well as her reasons for championing the music, not only of Cardona 8, but also of her predecessor and grandfather, Amando San Jose.

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