    Ethnic Music

    Mr. Clark Gravoso
    Philippine Ethnic Music
    • Filipinos already had a rich and unique
    musical tradition long before westerners
    set foot on our native land. Music was
    present in every stage of our ancestors’
    lives — from birth to death, in blissful or
    tragic times.
    Philippine Ethnic Music

    • Ethnic music continues to thrive in the


    Philippines, particularly among indigenous
    people who comprise 10 percent of the
    country’s population and represented by
    more than 100 language groups from the
    mountains of northern Luzon as well as
    from Mindanao, Sulu, Palawan, and
    Mindoro in southern and western
    Philippines.
    Philippine Ethnic Music
    • Such instruments as flat gongs, bamboo
    buzzers, clappers, quill-shaped percussion
    tubes, and brass Jew’s harps are often
    seen in the north. Meanwhile, bossed
    gongs, ring flutes, log drums, xylophones,
    single-stringed violins, and suspended
    beams are commonly used in the south.
    These musical instruments are used in
    various rituals, festivities, and other
    activities. For instance, the paldong or
    kaldong, the lip-valley flute of the Kalinga,
    is a favorite instrument for serenading.

    Philippine Ethnic Music

    • Vocal forms, performed either


    responsorially (viz., leader-chorus) or solo,
    are also used for different purposes. They
    follow the sequence of natural events and
    human activities, from the personal to
    social, from the economic to the political,
    from the spiritual to the cosmic.
    Philippine Ethnic Music
    • The Ibaloy ba-diw, an example of
    responsorial singing, is used in
    ceremonies for the dead called du-udyeng
    or ta-tamiya

    • In weddings, epic songs, which may be


    sung for one or more nights, may also be
    chanted to entertain guests or villagers
    themselves. Meanwhile songs, performed
    by a soloist may be accompanied by
    instruments and/or dancing.
    Philippine Ethnic Music
    • Among indigenous Filipinos, one important
    function of music is to celebrate or
    commemorate important events in the
    human life cycle. Examples are the
    Kalinga dopdopit, which is sung the first
    time a child is bathed outside the family’s
    house; and the dinnayan, dawak, and
    paliwat, also of the Kalinga, which are
    sung during a ritual celebrating the rite of
    passage from boyhood to manhood.
