TALA BY SARAH GERONIMO - TROMBONE COVER & Special Message to Color Guard Alliance Philippines (CGAP)
About a week ago I was contacted by Patricia Real Barairo about making a special video. Patricia is a board director at Drum Corps Asia, Event Director at WGI Philippines and the Founder & Executive Director at Color Guard Alliance of the Philippines Incorporated (CGAP). I met Patricia and her group, CGAP, last December when I was a judge at the Thailand World Music Championships. Due to everything going on in the world, the kids at CGAP, like most of us, are stuck at home! All of their events, performances and competitions have been cancelled. Of course, the kids are sad. I made this video for them in hopes of brightening their spirits and letting them know that they are not alone.
I know a lot of children are sad about marching band, color guard and drum corps being cancelled. I feel bad, but I have to say to them, “Welcome to being a professional musician or dancer”! All of our concerts, gigs, performances and tours are cancelled too. We are all in the same boat!
I knew if I was going to make a video for CGAP I just HAD to play the trombone in it! I Asked Patricia what the kids’ favorite song was and she sent me this:
WOW! What a video! I had never heard this song before, but I was sold! haha So I made a short video from the chorus of the song. Tala is also a very popular dance craze in the Philippines and it was really cute to see all the videos from CGAP of them doing the dance along to this song!
This was a very fun little project to make and I hope it made at least one person happy! Take care everyone. Stay home and stay busy. Keep making music, keep dancing, keep creating. This will pass and we will be back at it soon!
