Im very happy with this reaction. But you havent seen the best of MADZ Circle of Life ruclips.net/video/UvEK1YrylFg/видео.html Watch their performance in 19th European Grand Prix ruclips.net/video/uh-sPFz9wBg/видео.html Their choir director is the first guy on the left
Can you also react to their impromptu/flash mob type performance of Izar Ederrak in the Abbey of Mont Saint Michel?You' ll get a glimpse of who the sopranos, altos,basses and tenors are. Here's the link: Izar Ederrak (The Beautiful Star)-- Philippine Madrigal Singers ruclips.net/video/63SvibwhUNU/видео.html
they set their formation like that so they make a surround sound effect. in every concert they are in a concave formation and singers are mixed so the sound would always stay in the center..watch their impromptu videos to see how they deliberately arrange their formations this link includes their history ruclips.net/video/7Pm7EVsS0vg/видео.html
Please react Billy Crawford track mv and brightlight Billy is one of the international performer way back and back up dancer of Michael Jackson. You see how he perform way back in Germany France and etc.
I've seen recent uploads of other Filipino choir winning in international choir competition. I hope you can react to those as well. I find that there was more dynamic in those than this performance. 😊
The Philippine Madrigal Singers also called Madz started in the University of the Philippines (UPMS) and is the first ever choir to win the European Grand Prix for Choral Singing twice (1997,2007). They’ve been invited all over the world and they do concert tours almost every year (like this performance when they were requested to sing at that church but not the actual concert) and also perform as resident artist in the Cultural Center of the Philippines. I had the privilege to get to know them in a more personal level. They have a lot of good quality RUclips videos if you want to explore more of their angelic voices. They are arranged in SATB format and singing in a semi-circle. One of the members (perfect pitch) in the middle gives the pitch and with this arrangement, they can feel each others breathing, thus, they sing without a conductor. They are currently under the directorship of Mark Anthony Carpio who sits/stands at the right end of the circle. For them, the audience is the other half of the circle. If you guys want to listen to more of their songs, I suggest this song (they sing in multiple languages)- We Beheld Once Again The Stars “Rivedere le Stelle (Dante’s Inferno)- sung in Italian which is one of the 5 songs that they performed in the 2007 European Grand Prix. m.ruclips.net/video/epT2dc2z0nc/видео.html
Standing in S-A-T-B gives a fuller sound because the audience hear them in all sides and angles. Also, note that the 4 at the middle T-S-B-A is the core group. If you are part of the group, it takes time, training and talent to reach the middle and be part of the core.
Just to correct, they are singing with a conductor. Mark Carpio is the conductor. However, it is the signature of MADZ where the conductor does not conduct like how we usually perceive a choir conductor. If you watch closely, Mark is moving. It is through his movements and eye contact where the cue is coming from.
their trademark is sitting down in a semi-circle with the conductor seated at the left end of the circle. The unusual formation was patterned from banquet style in the renaissance period where hosts and guests would gather around for merriment and sing-songs in a semi-circle formation before the the meal was served. Also, the alternating male female position is to achieve a surround sound and its Soprano, Tenor, Alto, Bass alternating to achieve a balanced surround sound and all members are top-rated soloists.
and the group is known in the choral community as the MOST BEAUTIFUL SOUND ON EARTH. Also, the group is not limited to just the classical genre but a very diverse repertoire
That is their thing, Wale. Their conductor doesn't conduct in front of them during performances. So sick! I had the chance to train with them for a week. It is mind blowing! 😍🤯
Eres tú was a hit 1973 pop song from the Basque group Mocedades who represented Spain in the Eurovision Song Contest, where they took 2nd place. It got airplay in the US market. The Philippine Madrigal Singers/MADZ are a world class choral group that competes and consistantly wins in international choral competitions. This particular performance is so moving it brings goosebumps and tears to the eyes with its pure vocal simplicity and beauty.
OMG! The MADZ!! World Famous. They won every single Grand Prix at prestigious chorale competitions all over the world. As a choir member myself years ago we look up to them in terms of discipline, perfection, performance. They sing in SATB format, semi-circle form with the person in the middle providing the pitch. One of my fav is their cover of 'The Coconut Nut'. It's hilarious but delivered perfectly the MADZ (short for Madrigals, UP Madrigals) way! Thank you for this reaction. It brings so much memories. 💙
They're the Choir of The University of the Philippines. They have won a number of International competitions. Their selection process is intensive as well, their training very disciplined and concise, their delivery... well, you said it..ethereal. How I know this? My cousin was a member from 1986-1989
Noong una lang yon na UP pero ngayon ay marami nang naging member and current member ng Madrigal na hindi Alumni or student ng U.P. kaya na drop na yong UP sa pangalan ng Choir.
Philippine Madrigal won the EGP(European Grand Prix) Choir Contest twice. Only Choirs who won in a EGP recognized International Choir Competition are qualified to join EGP, hence EGP is like the World Choir Olympic.
The director is joined with the group. The UP Madrigal Singers have chosen to form a U - shaped formation in all its performances. They've realized that it displays the best sound quality projection, when all sections combine. The ultimate result is clear, crisp, and powerfully angelic.
Our pride and joy when it comes to choral singing, they are the epitome of a group singers, to be a member is really hard auditions you have to go thru🇵🇭🇵🇭❤️❤️
I watched them live once when they performed on our province and that was an epic moment. It's like I wanted to cry after their concert. It's an experience I won't ever forget. Wale is right. It feels Ethereal. 😍❤️
I will never forget the chills felt in my entire body when they sang the first chord the first time I saw them live in concert. I’ve had the privilege of seeing them directed by their founder and their current director. They truly are choral music royalty.
I was a choir member before and Madz really is our idol. Even the podium (positioning of SATB), we got it from them. Usually, if you are an alto, you will be with them but in this, you'll be placed depending on your ranking during quartet exam. The middle quartet is usually the foundation and so on for the other quartet. I missed singing and listening to Madz. Nice reaction btw, one of my fav reactors here on yt.
Wow this is so random but thank you for diving into the angelic chorales in the Philippines. Madrigals are like the creme of the creme in chorale, who started their journey from UP. The university also has great chorale like UP singing ambassadors and concert chorus to name a few, who like Madz have been bringing in awards and gaining international recognition. Hope you can check out Rhina Palma in her solo projects. She is a member of Madrigal, now a vocal coach too. Or, checkout The Nightingale composed of Rhina Palma and Bianca Lopez. Again, thank you for this.
You have to watch Philippine chorals, theres a lot in YT, and lots of grand champions that Phils. Chorals had won. The Phil Madrigal singers are the long time winners of the country for many generations already. Phils always landed the top winner or grand champions in lots of global competitions. I am actually waiting for this moment that you guys Waleska and Efra able to hear the Philippines Chorals and Children choirs. More power on your channel. God bless.❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
They are a national treasure. All their concerts start with them sitting in a half circle. They all know their parts. My friend is a Madrigal singer alumna.
They started as a university choir from my alma mater University of the Philippines and were known then as the UP Madrigal Singers. They've won multiple international competitions. They always compete sitting down in a semi circle. The Philippines is a known powerhouse in the choir world. Philippine songs arranged for the choir are also popular in the community.
The Philippine Madrigal Singers are the premier chorus of the Philippines. Multi awarded and world-wide acclaimed. Please react also to their performance in Indonesia, where they learned "Laskar Pelangi" in 2 days just to perform for the local audience. Thank you, love you both.
I just discovered you guys recently and I can't count how many vids I've already watched. I'm from PH but I've also enjoyed other artists you've reacted to, especially Rosalia. She's a gem. I like how you guys break down everything, give very insightful comments and have witty conversations. You're very entertaining to watch. And your also very respectful of each others opinion. It's good to see siblings who get along so well. And I also learned a lot from you. Your love and appreciation for music is very contagious. P.S. If you're looking for underground, underrated artist, please checkout Curtismith. He's a very eloquent Filipino rapper and he raps in English. Seriously, his lyrics are A++. Kiana recommended him during your podcast.
They can and do sing without a conductor. This world-renowned winningest group can gather impromptu during a family gathering and sing their hearts out. Call it experience. 🇵🇭🇺🇸
Philippine Madrigal Singers won, for the second time, the grand prize in the European Grand Prix for Choral Singing in Arezzo, Italy. This victory makes them the first of the only four choirs in the world to win the grand prize twice.
Heavenly sound! I like what Efra preachin' "so much power in unity" By the way, their director is also a singer and he directs the choir through eye contact. React also to song THE COCONUT NUT by Madrigal singers, its fun and fantastic!
This is one of the very few performances that the Madrigals (or Madz) are singing standing up. They usually are sitting in a semicircle. The conductor and musical director - Mark Anthony Carpio - is singing with them, positioned at the left-most. The way they are arranged is not the usual for choirs where sopranos are grouped together and so forth. Every 4 members you see standing (or sitting) close to each other function as a complete unit composed of a soprano, a base, an alto (or counter tenor), and a tenor.
Madrigal singing is normally a cappella and the conductor is normally the rightmost person of the formation facing the audience. They normally sing sitting down in a half circle.
The Philippine Madrigal Singers are well known best choir in the Philippines. Most of them are music majors from the University of the Philippines. Others are students in different majors and also well known in the world. Every year they win any choral competition in different countries. I am proud of them.
Philippine Madrigal Singers was the original chorale group who became the renowed group with their pitch perfect performance..We also have the Balinsasayaw Chorale group where they also follow the same path of the Philippine Madrigal singers...A lot of the choral songs being sung by many nationals or countries who joined choral competition are songs in Visayan original composition...I am so proud of our forefathers who compose those songs...You can search chorla competitions and most songs they sung are composed by Filipino compositor..mist from the Visayas..
The Philippines Madrigal Singers is a world-renown choir, a gem and pride of the Philippines. It won twice in the European Grand Prix (the ultimate chorale championship, recognized as a musical Olympics. This brilliant chorale group doesn't have a choir master in sight because they perform with such precision and full discipline. They're mostly have musical education and backgrounds plus undergoing rigid practices and rehearsals. They usually perform in different chorale festivals all over the world. BRAVO TO THIS WORLD-CLASS CHORALE Group!
One of my favorites... The first time I heard this it kinda hit me in my heart. Like someone just embraced me fr behind.. consoling me. Telling me things will be ok. Great melody.
Finally! A reaction to Madrigal singers! I HAVE BEEN PRAYING FOR THIS! Gracias, muchos gracias! Please check their performances, they never disappoint. My personal faves, Their rendition of How did you know, Now that I have you and Circle of Life-Lion King!.
Philippine Madrigal Singers has been a big part of my life in music!!! They are the best in the world watch any song they performed in new york ull be more amazed.
This is a prime example of the magic, majesty, grace, gratitude, and warmth one can feel listening or experiencing a good choir or an acapella group singing especially in a church where the atmosphere lends itself to opening your heart as well as excellent acoustics. It just bathes you in wondrous sounds and makes your heart feel warm and your soul full. Pls do react to more choirs and pls also check out an acapella group called Voctave. They have many videos here on RUclips from Disney medleys, to classic and jazz standards, to Christmas songs and even a soundtrack medley (recommend this one).
Chorale music is also a big thing in the Philippines. We have our choir groups regularly competing and touring in Europe and other parts of the world. The Philippine Madrigal Singers is the Philippines' premiere chorale group. They tour worldwide and usually perform live without mic and only rely on the room's acoustics. Watching them live is truly a unique spiritual experience. < Recognized by the UNESCO as Artists for Peace for “putting their fame and influence to promote cultural diversity, intercultural dialogue and a culture of peace,” the Philippine Madrigal Singers is one of the most awarded choral groups in the world, having consistently won all top prizes in major choral competitions, including the Grand Prix in the recently concluded 64th Concurso Internazionale di Guido d’ Arezzo last August 2016 in Arezzo, Italy. They hold the distinction of being the first choir in the world to win the prestigious European Grand Prix for Choral Singing twice (1997 and 2007) >
The Madz members are from the University of the Philippines Conservatory of Music. They are the cream of the crop. They are given music pieces, learn it by heart then sing it together perfectly as if they have practiced it together. They are also famous for singing while sitting down.
Before the pandemic they usually hold a choral workshop every 2 years held at the cultural center of the Philippines...they invite choral groups to attend and am lucky that i was able to attend to one...also there's so many choral groups in the Philippines that competed around the world...thanks
Imagine... what more if were native speakers and can truly grasp each words like native Spanish speakers... I believe its beautifully written... and they were able to perform it in the best way it can ever been sung and interpreted - majestic 👏👏❤️❤️
Philippine Madrigal Singer is our top choral group in the Philippines...they won several competitions abroad...the one conducting the stands together with the and conduct them through nodding...
The guy on the left with his back to the camera is the choir master. Observe his body movement especially his HEAD ☺ Check their other concert videos, they are ALWAYS SEATED.
Philippines has many amazing Chorale Choir who joined International Competitions they winning👑😍🇵🇭 Madrigal Singers, Loboc Children Choir, Mandaluyong Youth Choirs etc...
Just a fact. . . Philippine choirs wins a lot of international choir competitions and the winning piece that even in tagalog or other filipino dialect get sung by choirs from other countries years after. . .
Oh wow surprised you reacted to this chorale group. They are one of my favorites and considered one of the best in the world. There are tons of videos of this group performing here on RUclips and many of their performances are just outstanding. If you listen to them more often you will understand how good this group is and why they are in demand to perform all over the world.
We excel in this department. A lot of our local songs are being used by International Choirs all over the world. Madrigal Singers are the OG's. There are a lot more in the Choir Industry.
Finally... at long last!!! I've been asking some reactors to give time to react to this phenomenal and amazing filipino singers, MADZ. Thank you so much guys for your time, we appreciate it very much!!!
Awesome reaction to the Philippine Madrigal Singers Eres Tu. This is one of my favorite impromptu of theirs. The other one is Ili ili Tulog Anay in Utah when they vidited the Mormon Tabernacle
Your appreciation for music shows in your videos. It’s refreshing to watch 2 people, siblings in fact, break the performance down and share your knowledge of music.
As a predominantly Catholic nation, we have an abundance of Catholic schools and choirs are quite common. I remember in high school when every class participated in choir competition, complete with choreography.
The one leading is on the first man on the left. This is one of their favorite songs. They have impromptu on church and airport on the way home. But they also sings like Perfect or Heal the World
That song is just one of the many Spanish songs which were very popular in the Philippines way back in the 60's and 70's. I remember our group won first place singing Eres Tu during a competition at a school day celebration sometime in 1977.
they're all standing in this video because there's no place for them to sit 😅...seriously, quite often, when they have concerts, they'd be sitting and still be singing so effortlessly (or so they make it look) and beautifully ❤️
usually, they're even sitting down (when they are in formal competition or concerts)....I hope you get to hear them sing OPM (original Philippine Music like "Bituing Walang Ningning" or "Hanggang")
The Philippine Madrigal Singers has won international choir competitions multiple times. They are a word class chorale & a 1 strong group to beat. You should check their other performances in various competitions.
Thank you Waleska & Efra for reacting to my request. The choir master/ director is the man standing on the left whose back faces the audience. They usually sing in sitting position in a semi-circle formation.
at all the reaction ive been waiting for too long. Philippine mardrigal along w other filipino choir are bagging lots of trophies all over the world year after year they are hailed winners they wholesale buying medals in every category.
Long time ago, They use to sing in our church in Nuestra Senora Parish Church Guadalupe Viejo, Makati Philippines, during Simbang Gabi, which starts 4:30 AM, everyday for 9 days ( Dec 16 to 24) and the church will be jam packed.
The conductor of Philippine Madrigals stands and sings with the choir. The conductor directs by looking at the members of the choir in the eye The Philippines has among the best choirs in the world. Weve won the most prestigious choral competitions many times. We pioneered choreographed choral performances. UP (university of the Philippines) Madrigal Singers, UP Concert Chorus, and UP Singing Ambassadors are the most influential choirs in the country that have produced the country’s best conductors and classical voice teachers.
Philippine Madrigal Singers is already an institution in the choir arena! They have been existing for decades now and every year theres a change of members because some of them are graduated in college! It is own by the University of the Philippines, the no.1 university in the Phil Madrigal singers are well known all over the world.
hi guys, the madrigal singers is one of the classic groups I the Philippines, if not mistaken they've been singing since the 70's, and thru years getting more better, with new members coming in to fill,the spots of members either went solo and so on. One of the most respected group of singers as well, just for info. keep on exploring on our musical history and you have not seen them all.
Madz is one of the most feared group in the world. Grand Prix Champions all over the world. You should watch more of their Apocalyptic Pieces! They are amazing! And the Arias!

Phils.Madrigal Singers is a world class chorale and a philippine pride. We also have world class children's choir like the Loboc childrens choir.
I was lucky ro hear the Loboc Children Choir during my Bohol vacation in Loboc 3years ago.
I love their “Circle Of Life” too. They will bring you not only to church but to the jungle as well😬

Others are students in different majors and also well known in the world. Every year they win any choral competition in different countries. I am proud of them.
Philippine Madrigal Singers was the original chorale group who became the renowed group with their pitch perfect performance..We also have the Balinsasayaw Chorale group where they also follow the same path of the Philippine Madrigal singers...A lot of the choral songs being sung by many nationals or countries who joined choral competition are songs in Visayan original composition...I am so proud of our forefathers who compose those songs...You can search chorla competitions and most songs they sung are composed by Filipino compositor..mist from the Visayas..
The Philippine Madrigal Singers is the best choral group in the whole of the Philippines. They are world class singers.
That out-of-this-worldly angelic voice you hear piercing through that amazing cloud of voices, I believe is that of the incredible Kitbielle Pasagui.
The Philippines Madrigal Singers is a world-renown choir, a gem and pride of the Philippines. It won twice in the European Grand Prix (the ultimate chorale championship, recognized as a musical Olympics. This brilliant chorale group doesn't have a choir master in sight because they perform with such precision and full discipline. They're mostly have musical education and backgrounds plus undergoing rigid practices and rehearsals. They usually perform in different chorale festivals all over the world. BRAVO TO THIS WORLD-CLASS CHORALE Group!
One of my favorites... The first time I heard this it kinda hit me in my heart. Like someone just embraced me fr behind.. consoling me. Telling me things will be ok. Great melody.
This is my favorite performance of Phil. Madrigal Singers. Honestly I even downloaded it. They are brilliant!!!

Finally! A reaction to Madrigal singers! I HAVE BEEN PRAYING FOR THIS! Gracias, muchos gracias! Please check their performances, they never disappoint. My personal faves, Their rendition of How did you know, Now that I have you and Circle of Life-Lion King!.
Efra dude, you hooked me I was so serious listening to you until you go BEEP BEEP BEEP 👽😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Madz is one of the best choirs in the PH. They were known for singing very clean while sitting.
Philippine Madrigal Singers has been a big part of my life in music!!! They are the best in the world watch any song they performed in new york ull be more amazed.
This is a prime example of the magic, majesty, grace, gratitude, and warmth one can feel listening or experiencing a good choir or an acapella group singing especially in a church where the atmosphere lends itself to opening your heart as well as excellent acoustics.
It just bathes you in wondrous sounds and makes your heart feel warm and your soul full.
Pls do react to more choirs and pls also check out an acapella group called Voctave. They have many videos here on RUclips from Disney medleys, to classic and jazz standards, to Christmas songs and even a soundtrack medley (recommend this one).
Chorale music is also a big thing in the Philippines. We have our choir groups regularly competing and touring in Europe and other parts of the world. The Philippine Madrigal Singers is the Philippines' premiere chorale group. They tour worldwide and usually perform live without mic and only rely on the room's acoustics. Watching them live is truly a unique spiritual experience. < Recognized by the UNESCO as Artists for Peace for “putting their fame and influence to promote cultural diversity, intercultural dialogue and a culture of peace,” the Philippine Madrigal Singers is one of the most awarded choral groups in the world, having consistently won all top prizes in major choral competitions, including the Grand Prix in the recently concluded 64th Concurso Internazionale di Guido d’ Arezzo last August 2016 in Arezzo, Italy. They hold the distinction of being the first choir in the world to win the prestigious European Grand Prix for Choral Singing twice (1997 and 2007) >
The Madz members are from the University of the Philippines Conservatory of Music. They are the cream of the crop. They are given music pieces, learn it by heart then sing it together perfectly as if they have practiced it together. They are also famous for singing while sitting down.
wow, thank you for reacting to the best choir of the world. Thank you very much.
I love the Philippine Madrigal Singers! Glad to see Latinos love choral singing too. Just Wow!
Before the pandemic they usually hold a choral workshop every 2 years held at the cultural center of the Philippines...they invite choral groups to attend and am lucky that i was able to attend to one...also there's so many choral groups in the Philippines that competed around the world...thanks
Imagine... what more if were native speakers and can truly grasp each words like native Spanish speakers... I believe its beautifully written... and they were able to perform it in the best way it can ever been sung and interpreted - majestic 👏👏❤️❤️
Philippine Madrigal Singer is our top choral group in the Philippines...they won several competitions abroad...the one conducting the stands together with the and conduct them through nodding...
The guy on the left with his back to the camera is the choir master. Observe his body movement especially his HEAD ☺

Oh wow surprised you reacted to this chorale group. They are one of my favorites and considered one of the best in the world. There are tons of videos of this group performing here on RUclips and many of their performances are just outstanding. If you listen to them more often you will understand how good this group is and why they are in demand to perform all over the world.
We excel in this department. A lot of our local songs are being used by International Choirs all over the world. Madrigal Singers are the OG's. There are a lot more in the Choir Industry.
Finally... at long last!!! I've been asking some reactors to give time to react to this phenomenal and amazing filipino singers, MADZ. Thank you so much guys for your time, we appreciate it very much!!!
Woah!!! The Madrigal Singers! They are world renowed and have won numerous competitions worldwide!! They are Philippines pride
Awesome reaction to the Philippine Madrigal Singers Eres Tu. This is one of my favorite impromptu of theirs. The other one is Ili ili Tulog Anay in Utah when they vidited the Mormon Tabernacle
Your appreciation for music shows in your videos. It’s refreshing to watch 2 people, siblings in fact, break the performance down and share your knowledge of music.
This song Eres tu though i cant understand- will keep your ears to listen to and will filled your hearts with so much emotions and Serenity❤️❣️
As a predominantly Catholic nation, we have an abundance of Catholic schools and choirs are quite common. I remember in high school when every class participated in choir competition, complete with choreography.
Their circle of life is a must see/hear!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
The one leading is on the first man on the left. This is one of their favorite songs. They have impromptu on church and airport on the way home. But they also sings like Perfect or Heal the World
That song is just one of the many Spanish songs which were very popular in the Philippines way back in the 60's and 70's.
I remember our group won first place singing Eres Tu during a competition at a school day celebration sometime in 1977.
they're all standing in this video because there's no place for them to sit 😅...seriously, quite often, when they have concerts, they'd be sitting and still be singing so effortlessly (or so they make it look) and beautifully ❤️
What I like is that the audience don't have any phones out. They're respectful of the performers.
Please react to their iconic "PARU PARONG BUKID"
usually, they're even sitting down (when they are in formal competition or concerts)....I hope you get to hear them sing OPM (original Philippine Music like "Bituing Walang Ningning" or "Hanggang")
The Philippine Madrigal Singers has won international choir competitions multiple times. They are a word class chorale & a 1 strong group to beat. You should check their other performances in various competitions.
Thank you Waleska & Efra for reacting to my request. The choir master/ director is the man standing on the left whose back faces the audience. They usually sing in sitting position in a semi-circle formation.
at all the reaction ive been waiting for too long. Philippine mardrigal along w other filipino choir are bagging lots of trophies all over the world year after year they are hailed winners they wholesale buying medals in every category.
Long time ago, They use to sing in our church in Nuestra Senora Parish Church Guadalupe Viejo, Makati Philippines, during Simbang Gabi, which starts 4:30 AM, everyday for 9 days ( Dec 16 to 24) and the church will be jam packed.

The conductor of Philippine Madrigals stands and sings with the choir. The conductor directs by looking at the members of the choir in the eye
The Philippines has among the best choirs in the world. Weve won the most prestigious choral competitions many times. We pioneered choreographed choral performances. UP (university of the Philippines) Madrigal Singers, UP Concert Chorus, and UP Singing Ambassadors are the most influential choirs in the country that have produced the country’s best conductors and classical voice teachers.
