I always believed that the Filipino language or dialects are music itself that's why it's always the best in choral competitions. Filipinos should be proud of our rich cultures, language, and the people itself. Mabuhay!
Amen to that! The new batch is beginning to have the “ethereal” sound. The transformation of their Paraiso sound is a classic example. The tenors seem to be impeccable. Basses is going there. We have yet to hear the woofer and sub woofer sound of basses.. If u are avid fan of Madz, you can recall these mega basses -from Sir Jojo, Sibaen G, Gelo F, Enrico L, Marvin Neil and many among others.. Check their Caritas et Amor and Riveder. You’ll surely love their Basses
UV Chorale is already known as JRGVC or Jose Rivera Gullas Chorale last December 21, 2019 to honor it’s late founder Jose R. “Dodong” Gullas husband of it’s manager Nena Gullas. University of the Visayas Chorale went beyond school choir to a regional choir, opening its doors to give quality music education and training for musically inclined individuals across the Visayas. Latest International Chorale Competition achievement: Grand Prix, 2021 Busan Choral Festival and Competition
The Philippine Meistersingers (formerly the AUP Ambassadors). They won the coveted title, “Choir of the World 2011” in the 2011 Llangollen International Musical Eisteddfod, receiving the Luciano Pavarotti Trophy. With this award. In 2012 they received a Philippine Congressional Proclamation recognizing their contribution to Philippine music and culture. They are also one of the national recipients of the 2012 Ani ng Dangal Awards for Music. The chorale was twice a prizewinner of the National Music Competition for Young Artists (NAMCYA). In 2006 at the World Choir Games they won the Champion title for the Gospel and Spiritual category.
The UP Madrigal Singers or Madz can be considered as the National Choir of the Philippines. They are the standard of excellence and winning tradition in the Philippine chorale scene. I was lucky to be part of the UE Chorale. Nakapagperform din with our sister choir back then UV Chorale, UPSA, UST Singers, DLSU, Ateneo Glee Club, and of course Madz. Marami pang magaling sa Pilipinas. Maganda yun intention ng video pero sana mas pinalawak pa yun research like sa UE and UV. Mga kapatid naman yan UV pero kulang sa info. UE humakot ng awards sa Europe. Back 2 Back Champion sa Busan, Korea etc. Tapos wala yun magagaling na Children's choir. Sabi nga kung may pondo lang lahat ng choir sa Pilipinas, kahit kada Barangay sigurado hakot award sa abroad. Kung may chorale singing lang sa World Cup ang dami na natin Gold. Saka real talk sa ibang bansa, kapwa Pilipino din naglalaban laban sa 1st place haha. Sarap sa pakiramdam! Sana sa susunod per category. Good job tho! ❤
AGREE 111% - Philippine/Madrigal Singers!!! I was a member of our HS Choir, College Club Choir and Company Choir so I know a thing or two about choir or chorale singing.
MSU-IIT Octava Chorale Society! Once was the champion in the National Music Competitions for Young Artist NAMCYA College Choir Category and represented the Philippines in the 3rd IInernational Choral Festival!❤
Indeed, they are entirely on a different level and should have not been included in this category..they are simply the best even in the world!❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏😍😍😍👍👍👍🌟🌟🌟🤴🤴🤴
Yes, though I must admit the Madz have changed...their past history is worth praising and must be forever remembered in the cultural annals of our nation.
Well... Line up is good though giving credit to PUP Bagong Himig who pioneered and stepped up with dynamic choreography that truly made every performance above the rest!
It was the UP Concert Chorus that pioneered dynamic choreography starting in the '60s under Professor Rey Paguio. They even branded their unique style of performing - choreoacapella.
@Agnus and @ Macario... is it possible that we need not fight on a personal level? i believe you both are better than this. Pinoy kayo. Lahi ng Mabubuti, ma respeto na mga Tao. Affected Lang tayo lahat sa toxicity ng SocMed. It's Holy Week. Let's enjoy that we have more and more Filipino Choirs to be in the International Scene. Dumami pa sna lahat sila. Even OA would love that am sure. God Bless you both passionate people 🤗
yung nag thumbs down, baka kasamahan ko sa one percent nang mga pinoy di minalas sa sing, lagi kaming mga pangit na ang boses na pinoy ang nag sasakripisyo pag sinasabing lahat nang pinoy magaling kumanta.
Hi! Just a little correction on #10. The picture used is from our file, DLSU-Dasmariñas Chorale (in Cavite) headed by our then conductor Vell Litan, but our co-Lasallian DLSU (Manila) Chorale headed by late Professor +Rodolfo Delarmente is the actual #10 on the video. 🎶
Filipino choirs who competed in the EUROPEAN GRAND PRIX, the most prestigious choral competition in the world: MADZ - 3 times, 2 wins ATENEO GLEE CLUB - 2 times UP SINGING AMBASSADORS - 2 times UST SINGERS - 1x Imusicapella - 1x
the Madz should have won the EGP 2017.. baka may politics din n naganap na ayaw niang makuha ng 1 asian Choir ang most win na 3 times sa EGP kaya mas pinanalo nila ang Vesna nung time na yun..
I think the best choir performance is one that shows tremendous amounts of vocal control and synchrony, to blend all your voices as one, from modulation, frequency to tone, so as no personal voice conspicuously leaves the choral frequency range, especially from the powerful tenor, soprano and bass. These voices are the most likely to violate that choral range, betrays their distinct personal voices and gives the music a rather uneven taste. And just as the colors of a rainbow, when combined becomes light, these individual voices should blend perfectly becoming an entirely different vocal identity/entity. It shouldn't be too warm (yellow) or too cold (blue). It should be that bright white light, exactly in the middle of the color temperature. This gives the listener the reinforcement in idea and context, that the choir's voice is of divine and heavenly origin.
Maraming magagaling but they have not endured the test of time or at par with the UP Diliman choirs (Philippine Madrigal Singers, UP Concert Chorus and UP Singing Ambassadors).
How about the San Carlos Seminary college choir,(cebu).won the HIMIG NG LAHI competition consecutively 1982,1983, 1984.. defeated contestants ateneo and UP during the 1982 competition
University of Mindanao Chorale won NAMCYA in 2009 & 2015. 3rd prize in NAMCYA 1997 & 2019. Also the first Filipino Choir who won in Orientale Concentus in Singapore. First Filipino Choir who won in 2 categories in Busan International Choir Competition and held as a Grand Prix Champion. First and only Filipino Choir who won in 2 categories in Tokyo International Choir Competition. Grand Slam and Undefeated Winner in Musikahan sa Tagum and Gensan Summer Youth Fest Choral Competition. And the only Choir who's invited in Taiwan Choral Festival 2022. Kulang pa yan?
In my opinion, the Philippine Madrigal Singers should not have been included in this list as this group is in an another totally different level which the rest in the list only aspire to attain or at least approximate. It is like including champagne or vintage wine in a list of soft drinks or sodas.
@Macario Ofilida, FYI Imusicapella and Ateneo choir who are inclided among the top 10 list are both EGP qualifiers hence they are at par with Madz. . But I agree with you that Madz shoul not be included in the list because Madz as you brand them is like a vintage wine as most of the members of MADZ are npw relatively OLD compared to the members of the other choirs whose members are much YOUNGER(softdrinks ang tawag mo ) than the Madz singers hahaha.
ACS (under sir JoJo V) is formed not so long ago. The Ateneo Manila College Glee Club ( under Sir Joel Navarro) is very well known in the late 80s. ACS has participated in international comp few years ago. Have u seen their Pamugun version? You’ll surely appreciate it
I am not from UP however, You can't deny UP Madrigal Singers is the best of the best. They are hall of famers of almost all international competitions. You should know the history of choirs.. you can't argue with that. RESPECT!
After the Philippine Madrigal Singers, it should be the UP Concert Chorus, UP singing Ambassadors, Ateneo College Glee Club, and UST Singers, in that order. UST Singers is placed way too high in this ranking.
Kahit sinong grupo basta Pilipino suporta lang po tayo walang maliit o malaking pangalan !!!....❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
I always believed that the Filipino language or dialects are music itself that's why it's always the best in choral competitions. Filipinos should be proud of our rich cultures, language, and the people itself. Mabuhay!
No. 6 is good and the most professional especially in presentation - good voices too! UP Choral ❤️👏👍🏻 👍🏻
Walang makakatalo sa Madrigals🥰

Sameee i would consider them also
❤❤❤@@njsalcedo2481

Three Choirs created by UP are all good in my eyes!
Gumagaling na din ang UP Manila Chorale and UP Los Baños Choral Ensemble having won recently in international competitions.

Mabuhay Singers is one of them who sang some of their beautiful songs..

Did i miss the Choir of the Wolrd 2011 AUP Ambassadors? ✌️
Nope.. i like AUP. Their Light of A Million interpretation is superb as in flawless.
nice compilation
True, they are a league of their own.
Yes, though I must admit the Madz have changed...their past history is worth praising and must be forever remembered in the cultural annals of our nation.
@@macarioofilada469 MADZ!!!

MADZ is no. 1 (in the world; in my book).

MADZ!!!
2:09 start
CLSU Maestro Singers should be involved nowadays
MSU-IIT Octava Choral was the champion in NAMCYA 1981
how about the Adventist University of the Philippines chorale who won in international chorale competitions?
PUP bagong himig
Iupdate nio na ito ang dami ng magagaling na choir ngayon.
Will do another one next year…
Maraming magagaling but they have not endured the test of time or at par with the UP Diliman choirs (Philippine Madrigal Singers, UP Concert Chorus and UP Singing Ambassadors).
Maybe you can share your criteria for ranking choirs the way you do. Must be hard, though. Thanks for doing this.
I hope that you can do a video reaction to Sisters of Mary School Boystown Choir 😘 they are great
Will check it out. Thks much!!!!
si Tristan din ba conductor nila?
@@pedroreynantelreyes yup po
You forgot the AUP AMBASSADORS or with their new name Philippine Meistersingers who brought home the 2nd llangollen trophy after UST
Where is Adventist University of the Philippines Ambassadors?
AUP AMBASSADOR
How about the Loboc Children’s Choir?

Wow! I wasn't even born yet. I think the criteria of the OP are choirs who won recent international competitions.
Sayang at wala nag PNU chorale. Magaling din sila.
In the early 90s … sumali sila sa NAMCYA
So where's University Of Mindanao Chorale?
Not in the list as the ranking was made last year. In fairness UM Chorale 2022 batch is so good. I’ve seen their performance in Taiwan
not on the list kasi kulang pa achievements compared sa top 10
University of Mindanao Chorale won NAMCYA in 2009 & 2015. 3rd prize in NAMCYA 1997 & 2019. Also the first Filipino Choir who won in Orientale Concentus in Singapore. First Filipino Choir who won in 2 categories in Busan International Choir Competition and held as a Grand Prix Champion. First and only Filipino Choir who won in 2 categories in Tokyo International Choir Competition. Grand Slam and Undefeated Winner in Musikahan sa Tagum and Gensan Summer Youth Fest Choral Competition. And the only Choir who's invited in Taiwan Choral Festival 2022. Kulang pa yan?
@@Jonisuga correct! That's why I'm confused why UMC is not included in the list.
Some of My batchmates in Davao City High Singing Teens sang with UM Chorale. Anyone from ST Batch 1998-2001 here?
Philippine magical daw hehehehe.. saan yon
Where is the AUP Ambassadors?... they have won several international competitions...
Okay, I expected the University of Mindanao Choir to be on top 5😅
No. 2 good in making different kind of sounds - but i don't like its singing style - rough not classy!
The introduction is too long!!! You can pause the middle part of the video, so that your clients won't get bored. . .
In my opinion, the Philippine Madrigal Singers should not have been included in this list as this group is in an another totally different level which the rest in the list only aspire to attain or at least approximate. It is like including champagne or vintage wine in a list of soft drinks or sodas.
Truth, Madz is on the Pedestal already.
Whon do you think can beat madrigal singers in an international competition
@@dormamo6917 The Madz lost in the last 2017 EGP. I think it's about time for Madz to recruit younger members as most of the Madz singers are now old.
@@baltazarmelchor451 true hahaha

Where is Ateneo Chamber Singers?
how about the UPMC :)
I ❤UP Manila Chorale & UP Los Baños Choral Ensemble aside from the UP Diliman choirs.
where's Ateneo Chamber Singers? it should be #3 or 2 in the list
ACS (under sir JoJo V) is formed not so long ago. The Ateneo Manila College Glee Club ( under Sir Joel Navarro) is very well known in the late 80s. ACS has participated in international comp few years ago. Have u seen their Pamugun version? You’ll surely appreciate it

@@rebeccatan7422 Never.
@@gilbertflores2473Sorry, but UST is a distant second to the Madz.
2021? This is not updated.

The costume needs to be improved...all of them
troubadours didnt make it in top 10?
😅V😅😊
The Phil. Madrigal must be disqualified coz they were considered as professional.
MADZ!!!
Sana tinagalog na lang. Sorry po pero daming grammatical errors.
i don't find Ateneo Glee Club impressive than No. 6 and 5 - they are of the same caliber
the sound of this video from Panda is not excellent- didn't give justice to all the beautiful songs and singing! improve your audio system
It shd. read "at CCP", not "in CCP", pls. Take note of your grammar. Basic lang Yan.
the order of ranking here is wrong
After the Philippine Madrigal Singers, it should be the UP Concert Chorus, UP singing Ambassadors, Ateneo College Glee Club, and UST Singers, in that order. UST Singers is placed way too high in this ranking.
Seriously? You hearing yourself? What's beautiful to you may not be beautiful to others. Your opinion is valid, but your comment is kind of rude.
Sino naman ang mag rank nito anong basis lol
In all your performances I cannot find a good deep bass. Your sopranos tend to be shrill, not rounded.
You're sleeping on university of mindanao lol
this is manila's top 10 not Philippines... hahaha
No.10 i don't like No. 9 is good 👍🏻
Di na dapat
WALA PA RING TATALO SA MCGI CHOIRE NA NASA GUINESS BOOK OF WORLD RECORD !!
why No. 2 is No. 2. Nope i don't like them !
DLSU Chorale is way more accomplished than the UST Singers.
I don't think so. Maybe during the time of Delarmente but the UST Singers was just starting then.
