The experimental folk quintet will be performing at the UP Theater for the first time, following the release of their sophomore album
On July 20, 2024 (Saturday), Munimuni, a Filipino indie-folk group, will celebrate the release of their second full-length album, Alegorya, with a spectacular concert at the esteemed UP Theater.
The much awaited production, ALEGORYA: A Munimuni Concert, is aptly named and promises to be an audio-visual feast for the senses. The concert’s title is derived from their most recent release, which the five-piece group claims conveys a wide range of remarkably distinct feelings and ideas that wouldn’t typically fit into a single album.
The highly regarded group views this performance as a turning point in music history since it combines chamber music with live acts and a more complex narrative. The most fascinating aspect is how Munimuni carefully considers the song order and how they want their followers to find the overall experience rewarding.
“Practically, this one is the biggest so far in terms of audience, and the longest in terms of set list,” Munimuni explains in a statement. “Creatively, we aim to create an experience that mirrors the album’s inherent complexity.”
ALEGORYA: A Munimuni Concert serves as the band’s third major concert, following 2018’s self-titled concert at the Music Museum and 2019’s Kulayan Natin at Cine Adarna, UP Film Center. The live music offering aims to combine the intimacy and adventurousness of Munimuni’s music with a grander scale in terms of ambition and scope, focusing on the album’s overarching theme of “looking at the world and our human selves a bit deeper” and “going beyond what is apparent on the surface.”
Munimuni shares, “We’re excited to perform at the UP Theater, not just because of the size and prestige of the venue, but also because it feels close to home. The band started in the UP Diliman campus, after all. Our goal for performing in large shows and smaller shows is the same, though. We really just want our songs to move people and somehow help them go through life with a sense of hope. For this concert, the goal stays the same, but we get to express it in a different way, which we take as an opportunity to grow as artists.”
