ROMULO Executive Secretary The seal was conceptualized during the 10th year of NAMCYA, playing up the monograms or the frst letter of the words that stand for NAMCYA.

It is with great pleasure that I watch our young Filipino musicians develop into the best that they can be. I see their sacrifces bear fruit before my very eyes and am thankful for the opportunity to serve. This year is no diferent. Or should I say that despite our present economic problems, along with the rest of the world, we can still fnd time for music. And well we should. Good times and bad times come and go, but music is forever. This year, we have another bumper crop of excellent young musicians taking part in our annual competition, which we all know is no competition at all. This is because of our long-standing policy not to declare winners or champions in the conventional sense. Those that receive the highest honors are considered to have perfected their craft and have reached the pinnacle of technical profciency, while those who do not are simply reminded that the task of improving one’s music never ends. This competition is just another rung on their ladder to the peak, their peak. Join us as we witness our best young musical artists perform original Filipino music for the ages. Veronica L. Tapia-Merk Chair, NAMCYA 2009 ii 2009 NAMCYA T MESSAGE FROM THE SECRETARY-GENERAL The year 2009 will see yet another noteworthy endeavor to fnd the country’s most outstanding young musicians as the National Music Competitions for Young Artists embarks upon another nationwide search in the Performance Categories of Choir, Voice, Piano, Traditional Music, Dance, Brass Instruments, Guitar and Rondalla. The creation of a new environment of the human spirit which determines how we create a new environment for our earth is invaluably inspired, guided and enriched by those fner intangible realms of experience which only music and the arts can truly and completely provide. No richer mine of resources for this provision can be found than in the young practitioners of music and the arts that endeavors like the NAMCYA, now on its fourth decade, continually and tirelessly discover and uncover. To all who makes this efort possible and ever stronger: our humble thanks. See you at the competitions! Dr. Ramon “Montet” Acoymo Secretary-General 2009 NAMCYA iii iv 2009 NAMCYA T MESSAGE FROM THE PROGRAM DIRECTOR Mabuhay! This year, the youngest participants will compete in Piano and Traditional Philippine Music Ensemble. It is very reassuring to see the overwhelming response of these children – and of course, their indefatigable parents and teachers – as evidenced by the large number of contestants from all over the archipelago. High school age youth are encouraged to join the Dance and Solo Voice Competitions. Young adults may compete for musical supremacy in the individual instrument competitions for Brass (specifcally Trumpet, Horn, Trombone, Bass Trombone, Tuba) and Guitar, and in the group competitions for Choir and Rondalla. At this critical point in global history, discovering and maintaining our young artists is an enormous challenge. To those who have supported the NAMCYA these past 35 years, our sincerest gratitude as we continue to reap the fruits of their labour. We salute our youth for their extraordinary talent. We commend them for having the patience, diligence, single-mindedness, and commitment necessary to nurture this gift. In doing so, they are “Creating an Environment of the Spirit and the World through Music and the Arts”. Welcome to the 36th National Music Competitions for Young Artists! Luz Corazon R.
