------------------
The Filipino folk tune, “Walay Angay,” is a Filipino love song (kundiman). Its translation is “There is no comparison to the pain of lost love.” This work, representative of Kasilag’s use of Filipino folk songs, is structured as a standard Theme with eleven Variations and Finale. This composition aptly shows Kasilag’s highly imaginative skill in converting a simple melody into various forms challenging the listener’s ear with fresh material by which to perceive an old one.
