Artists like sculptor Ramon Orlina are figures to look up to, given the combination of their talent, depth, and humanitarian virtues. Paying tribute to the UST 499th Anniversary, the internationally acclaimed sculptor had arranged his birthday celebration to coincide with the first anniversary of his iconic monument entitled \u201cQuatro Mondial\u201d.\u00a0 The \u00a0\u00a0dinner-concert was held at the UST College of Law lobby, and was attended by a diverse mix of noteworthy guests, among them: Senator Ramon Magsaysay, Jr., Atty Nilo Divina, Dean of the UST College of Law, visual artists, Betsy Westendorp, Pandy Aviado, Egai Fernandez, Gus Albor, Nemi Miranda; gallery owners Silvana Diaz, Lori Juvida, Amy Loste, Jonathan Sy and Jack Teotico and others.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The evening was one of synchronicity, when all seemed to come together. Three of the country\u2019s foremost artists who gave rousing numbers were:\u00a0 international concert pianist Raul Sunico, soprano Rachelle Gerodias and violinist Gina Medina.\u00a0 They performed favorite kundimans to the appreciative audience, and were given a standing ovation.\u00a0 The surprise performance of the evening was young soprano, Cris Go, a student at the Philippine High School for the Arts.\u00a0 She amazed the crowd with the song \u201cOur Father”, which she sang in A capella and popular Kundiman songs. The infectious energy drew in good friends, Batangas luminary and ancestral home restorer, Tony Pastor, Fedore Yap, Carmen Clavecilla and Tata Poblador who\u00a0 regaled the celebrator with their songs.
