EN: rondalla (string orchestra)
The Philippines' OG string ensemble, but way cooler. It's the sound of fiestas, school foundation days, and Christmas caroling taken to the next level. Think of a group of titos and titas (or students in barong) making beautiful music with instruments you can't easily pronounce, like the 'bandurya' and 'oktabina'.
From Spanish 'rondalla', meaning 'serenading group'.
Refers to a traditional Filipino plucked-string orchestra.
