saung banggi

The man who immortalized “Sarung Banggi”
the song that would become Bikol’s regional anthem...
In a little town of then ‘Libog’ a brilliant composer
write Sarung Banggi "one night when the chirping
of a bird and rustling of the leaves woke him one night.."
A song create a long lasting impression of bicolanos
who heard of this wonderfully simple melody
for over 100 years. It has been recorded by many artists
through many arrangements and has earned
its rightful place in the annals of music history.
Like the imposing Mayon, Cagsawa ruins’ solemn serenity,
Sarung Banggi will continue to flourish as the melody and
tune passes down from one generation to another.
As we look up to admire the beauty of Mayon, we ‘hear the silent,
calming serenade of Sarung Banggi.
