CULTURAL NIGHT AT THE REMY PRESAS MEMORIAL CAMP OF THE 3RD WORLD FILIPINO MARTIAL ARTS FESTIVAL 2006 On the second night, the delegates were treated to a cultural night, which featured many indigenous dances of the Philippines, including dances depicting Muslim life, and dances with themes of courtship, harvest, and other aspects of Philippine culture. The rich productions featured lithe, graceful dancers, colorful costumes, hypnotic lights and pulse-pounding or haunting music. Another featured act was cultural performer and drummer Paul Zialcita. For many years now, Paul has been blending and integrating many Filipino cultural aspects, including Filipino martial arts, music, dance, costume, and even graphic arts such as comic books. Excerpt from the e-book “Philippine Odyssey 2006” by Jay de Leon available at the online store.
