حول هذا الألبوم
Folk, as a category of creative musical practice that has long centered the intimate, collective relationship between people and the geographies that shape their lives, turns its full attention to one of the Philippines’ most vibrant and culturally dense urban centers in the album Manila, I Love Manila. Unlike musical forms that often prioritize universal, widely accessible narratives to reach broad cross-cultural audiences, folk music as a global practice is inherently tied to specificity, to the small, uncelebrated moments that make a place feel like more than just a set of coordinates on a map, and the title of this work signals that unwavering commitment to specificity from the very first mention.
