The selected senior and junior high school faculty and learners led by Mr. Mark Reniel L. Balolo, SHS TIII, delved into witnessing a series of inspiring performances touched by musicianship and stylistic versatility as the Cultural Center of the Philippines embarked on the Philharmonic Orchestra 40^th Concert Season Fiesta last September 27, 2024, at the Samsung Performing Arts Theater, Circuit Makati.

The affair highlighted the exceptional performing artist of musical pieces under the baton of Maestro Grzegorz Nowak, the renowned Permanent Associate Conductor of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra (RPO). The harmony of the violins, cellos, maracas, French horns, harps, and other musical instruments, only seen in reading materials, yet with the ensemble led to a meaningful appreciation of its role, sounds, cultural significance, and emotional expression.   

Such an overwhelming experience as the audience were led to a profound musical journey and foster appreciation of orchestral music.
