Ryan Cayabyab 'Sang Libo't 'Sang Tinig Ng Pasko: The Araneta Center Christmas Special


Saturday, November 19, 2011 was one spectacular night in Araneta Center. Brightest stars of Music industry are gathered in one magestic night together with 1001 voices with no other than Maestro Ryan Cayabyab. World renowned chorale all over the Phillipines are put together for the one dream come true event.


It all started in one simple wish. Maestro Ryan Cayabyab was asked "Of all the success you've been enjoying, is there still one thing that you want to do?". He answered, that he wants to gather 1000 voices in one christmas concert. Incidentally, Madame Judy Araneta is watching his interview and called ABSCBN to make his wish come true and the rest are history.










I was so lucky to be sitted in Araneta to witness this spectacular event. The moment the chorale started to sing, I felt that I am in heaven, serenated by thousand of angels. It was very overwhelming to hear christmas songs being sung with wonderful voices.I cannot utter a perfect word to describe what exactly I felt. Along with the chorale, famous names of local music joined them and to give support to Mr. C. The ABSCBN's premiere performers like KC Concepcion, Ariel Rivera, Nyoy Volante, RJ Rodriguez, Marcelito Pomoy, Angeline Quinto, Opera singer Rachel Gerodias, Jed Madela, Piolo Pascual, and Ms. Lea Salonga. They performed famous and classic christmas songs for the audience.


I really enjoyed this concert and I hope you do too. This will be telecast via ABCBN's Sunday's Best. One remarkable number was with Jed Madela when he sung the 'Gloria El Exelsis Deo'. With Jed's powerful voice enchanted with 1001 voices and with great accompanionment of Phillippines pride - Manila Symphony Orchestra. I had a goosebumps during the entire performance. Also, Piolo was really heart warming with his number. And Miss Lea Salonga was incomparable! Very astonishing and her number was beyond excellent.












I am very proud to this event. And this is once in a lifetime experience. To be serenated by 1001 voices and famous singers are overwhelming. So proud that our country have these world class talents. So this christmas, let the music binds us together as one big family.
