UP Madz wins world choral competition

The UP Madz won the 2007 European Choral Grand Prix in Arezzo, Italy last Sunday, the only choir to ever win the distinction twice. Now that sure is something we Filos should be proud about!

The University of the Philippines Madrigal Singers, also known as the Philippine Madrigal Singers or simply Madz, is actually one of the most awarded choirs in Asia, having consistently won all the prizes in the most prestigious international choral competitions for many years. Because of their impressive track record and musical virtuosity, the Philipppine Madrigal Singers is regarded as the one of the best choirs in the world. Woohoo!

Since a positive news item always starts me in a good mood, I might just be on a roll today and be able to write more than my daily target output of a thousand words. That would be something worth singing about!
