MANILA, Philippines — The Little Singers of Paris, an award-winning boys' choir from France, serenaded guests at the opening of "Marché de Nöel Christmas Market & Festival Lights" last Saturday in Ayala Triangle Gardens, Makati City.
After opening with a French song, the Les petits chanteurs à la croix de bois ("The Little Singers of Paris") performed the popular Filipino children's song "May Ibong Kakantakanta" to officially open the "Marché de Nöel," which is a part of the celebration of the 75th anniversary of the Establishment of the French-Philippine Diplomatic Relations.
With the concept of “Eat, Drink, and Shop," the first-ever French-Philippine Christmas market in Ayala Triangle features various gourmet food, wine and artisanal gifts. It also showcases French and Filipino food and drinks with handmade or original crafted products.
After their "Marché de Nöel" rendition, the boys' choir performed Christmas carols alongside the Philippines' very own award-winning Loboc Children's Choir from Bohol, in a night of choral music titled "Songs from the Heart," held in Metropolitan Theater Manila last night.
