The Philippines? ambassador to Hungary opened the concert with a speech, after which 13 women and twelve men in bright red robes and amazing smiles walked onto the stage to give a marvelous performance of sacred music. In the second half of the programme, they returned in native dress to bring more brilliant singing, but with humour, dance and magnificent rhythm ? a miracle on the stage.
