                    [Summary] => During those weeks late in June when Filipinos were anxiously waiting for the final results of the elections, activities in the performing arts came to a standstill. The counting of the ballots in Congress took center stage and it was not amusing in the least except for the admirers of Senator Pimentel and Congressman Dilangalen who must have thrilled to their marathon rhetoric.

We are so absorbed in our petty daily concerns that the feathered hours wing by unnoticed and suddenly one day, we pause from our labors and cry out in disbelief.  Have we come to the end of another year again?

Never before heard in these parts is a unique ensemble, Les Trompettes de Versailles, presented by the French Spring in Manila 2001, Vivendi Water Philippines and the San Agustin Museum.
