"AWIT SA PULANG LUPA"




Typhoon "Reming" in November 2006, and the tropical rains rendered the Pulang Lupa Shrine impassable for many months. In August 2007, we visited the site with a team from the capitol headed by Archt. Glenn Openiano and saw the challenge...

On September 13, 2007, the provincial celebration of the Battle of Pulang Lupa was held at the mountain site in Brgy. Bolo, Torrijos. Previous celebrations were largely confined to the municipality with activities held at the town center.

Thousands trooped to the site consisting of Boy and Girl Scouts, government officials and public employees, teachers, soldiers, descendants of the local heroes, performers from Mogpog("Pateado"), Boac (Moriones), Gasan (Pangkat Kalutang) and Torrijos ("Abukay"), including the Teatro Balangaw and Marinduque Provincial Capitol Choir. This video contains the Balangaw presentation of "Awit sa Pulang Lupa" and footages of our first inspection of the site.
