    Filipinos are highly musical people and I am sure would produce many more talents if the interest in classical music were greater there & the poverty less. Unlike in China there is not that much interest in classical music.

      What do the Philippines and China have to do with each other?

    • Nik says:

      Indeed, I can’t think of any nation that is more ready to burst into song at every opportunity. And Filipino bands dominate the live music scene all over Asia.

    I also like the fact that the boy doesn’t put any of the so- called “emotional faces” we have to endure nowadays. He just concentrates on the sound and not the camera!
