MUSIC OF THE VISAYAS
Music from the Visayas is generally viewed as influenced by
the Spanish colonial music tradition with its use of the guitar and its
vocal / choral and instrument. While most folk music from the
Visayas was influenced by the introduction of Christianity, fusion and
mixture have marked the character of the para-liturgical music used
in different festivals. There are still existing ethno-linguistic groups
from the Visayas who continue to nurture and practice music dating
from thepre-Spanishperiod.
Musical style of the Visayans is a song-and-
dance debate between a man and a woman
known as balitaw. The theme is about love and
marriage usually performed by singers, dancers
andactors.

their sentiments, way of life, and interactions with their
environmentand other people.eso
