Fresh from the success of the Philippine Christmas Concert at Minato City’s Akasaka Civic Center, thePhilippine Madrigal Singers met with members of the Filipino Chorale Groups in Tokyo for a workshop hosted by the Philippine Embassy with its Sentro Rizal-Tokyo on 21 December 2023.
Led by Choral conductor and Choirmaster, Mark Anthony A. Carpio, the Madrigal Singers shared essential vocal and singing techniques to more than 30 participants. The 2-hour workshop included warm-up and breathing exercises, vocal register and placement, blending, and harmony, among others.

Ambassador Mylene J. Garcia-Albano expressed her appreciation to the Philippine Madrigal for sharing their time and expertise with the participants who are selflessly serving the parishioners of the various Catholic churches in Tokyo.
