                    [Summary] => It has been five years since I last saw Romanian violinist Alexandru Tomescu perform in Manila. The occasion was an unfortunate one. Tomescu was to play two violin concertos during the occasion, the Tchaikovsky and the Mendelssohn concertos, I think; the orchestra was the defunct National Philharmonic Orchestra. The late Redentor Romero, who led the orchestra, was in the hospital in critical condition. Hermie Rañera conducted the orchestra in his absence. The next day, Romero passed away.

There were no avant-garde compositions, the program consisting mostly of easily identifiable favorites such as Meditation from Massenet’s Thai, Kreisler’s Liebesfreud and Sarasate’s Gypsy Airs.
