adopted ideas and elements from 20th century art music in the west, as well as the
latest trends and musical styles in the entertainment industry. The modern Filipino
repertoire consists of musical pieces that have been written in 20th century idioms
that have evolved out of such stylistic movements as impressionism, expressionism,
neo-classicism, as well as avant garde and new music.

 WRAP–UP

With Spain and then America having colonized the Philippines from the early
1500s to the late 1800s, it was unavoidable that Western compositional techniques
found their way into the works of Filipino composers. Yet, even 20th century Filipino
composers have managed to retain some traditional elements in their assimilation of
Western techniques. In fact, they have become the strongest foundations of what we
now know as Philippine music.

Directions: Below are the names of the composers discussed earlier. Write down
