Ligaya Fernando-Amilbangsa rehearses "Linggisan" with Pakaraguian Kulintang Ensemble for performance at "Magkaugnay: Cultural Connectedness in Philippine Music and Dance" on September 13th. at John Ford Amphitheater.
This was obviously a practice session NOT meant to be publicized. Was she even aware this rehearsal would be videotaped and uploaded on youtube?
To anyone with more than a passing familiarity with Ms. Amilbangsa's performances, it is GLARINGLY OBVIOUS that she is NOT dancing at performance level in this video. The energy that is so characteristic of her is simply not there.
It is unfair that her ability is being judged through a rehearsal video which I don't think she knew about.
Our master at work..

The video of the ACTUAL performance should have been posted, NOT this.
