FEU Drum and Bugle Corps holds free concert
After years of performing primarily in outdoor settings, the FEU Drum and Bugle Corps (DBC) marks a triumphant return to the historic auditorium of the Far Eastern University Manila in their upcoming concert titled “From the Field to the Concert Hall,” on Sept. 28, 6 p.m.
The concert will showcase their talents in playing brass and percussion instruments together with the artistic color guard dance drills in a classical and modern repertoire specially arranged for them.
Each piece in the program was carefully selected by the FEU DBC’s artistic director Kevin Castelo, who graduated from the Jacobs School of Music of Indiana University, and Koowie Relevo, an alumnus of the Corps who is now the assistant artistic director.
By bridging traditional field performances and the refined atmosphere of the concert hall, the musical evening will celebrate the FEU DBC’s 89-year history.
The program will show the dedication and passion of the FEU DBC members who come from various nonmusic courses within the University.
The concert also provides an opportunity for both longtime supporters and new audiences to experience the energy and artistry of the Corps at the FEU Auditorium, which served as the cultural center of the Philippines during the 1950s and is currently celebrating its 75th year.
The concert is free for all.
