The CPU Dance Company after their performance in Saludo 3 at the Rose Memorial Auditorium.
The ĢƵ Dance Company (CPUDC) ĢƵAng Tumandok sang IloiloĢƵ- IloiloĢƵs resident dance group, as promised, had their dance concert entitled Saludo: 3 Kabanata (Ang Makulay na Pahina ng Kulturang Pilipino) last March 2 with 3 shows and another one on March 6, 2023 at the Rose Memorial Auditorium. It was a sequel to the Saludo 1 (A Glimpse on Philippine Culture) and Saludo 2 (Un Vistazo a la Cultura Filipina), according to Adviser and Artistic Director Prof. Randy A. Lero.
This was the most applauded one, according to some expat guests from USA, Canada and Australia. The show was awesome and very colorful; even the dancers wore all new, and very impressive costumes. They said ĢƵThe show was great, the dancers were amazing, and had very good stage presence. The shows were supported by the CPU administration headed by the University President Dr. Teodoro C. Robles. Hopefully, Saludo 3 will be shown at the Lovely Hall Cultural Center at Kawachinagano City of Osaka, Japan this June as part of the groupĢƵs annual international cultural exchange program between CPUDC and the Kawachinagano International Friendship Association.
Prof. Lero extended his appreciation to the Director of CPU Cultural Affairs Office Ms. Crista S. Huyong for the support and encouragement; to the parents and guardians of the dancers; the CPU Health and PE Department and to the people who showed their presence and help during the dance concert.
