VIOLINIST FAVORS PHILIPPINE KUNDIMANS
On a late spring afternoon in 2003, violinist Stephen Y.S. Shey performed before a packed Sorenson Theater in Wellesley, MA. Midway through his 90-minute high school recital, he introduced the Philippine Kundimans. One could hear a pin drop just before waves of applause filled the theater and two standing ovations greeted his finale number, Bayan Ko. There were 5 Filipinos in the audience and they were stunned and teary-eyed.
