Examine the table you have just accomplished. What helped you find the songs in
the puzzle?

This time try doing this activity after listening to the folk songs.

1. What can you say with the different time signatures (meter) of the songs.

2. Analyze the emotions communicated by each song (love, anger, happiness,

suffering, etc.; and

3. Observe the speed of each song. Do they have the same tempos?

4. Why do you think the composers of these p a r t i c u l a r folk songs made it

that way?
 In this activity, you should be able to understand that because folk songs were
transferred orally from the family or community members, only the songs you find
yourself connected with (dialect, culture, tradition, community) will only retain in
your mind, thus they became familiar to you. There are some songs you do not
understand but you remember its tunes because a family member / community who
stayed in that place where love songs originated used to sing them or a visitor from
that locality tried to teach you those songs.

C. Abstraction

Folk songs in general have the following characteristics

A. The lyrics are according to the native tongue.

Because songs are based on the daily experiences of the people
in a particular place and the message of the songs needs to be understood
easily to be appreciated, the lyrics of the songs are written or sung in their
own dialects. For example, the Tagalog folk songs came from the people
who speak Tagalog. (Bahay Kubo, Leron, Leron Sinta, Magtanim ay
„Di Biro).
The Ilocanos have their own (Manang Biday and Pamulinawen).
The Kapampangan’s Atin Cu Pung Singsing, and the Bicolano’s Sarung
Banggi are just a few among the folk songs of Luzon that are sung in their
own dialects. Why do you think it is important for a folk song to be sung
or written in their native tongue?

B. Passed down through oral tradition to family or community members,

hence, learned by mere memorization.
Singing is a form of social bonding among early Filipino families.
Because they did not have access to internet, T.V. and radio during that
time, singing folksongs became their favorite pastime.

C. Unknown composers and lyricists.

Most composers of Filipino folk songs are unknown because songs are
just based on daily experiences and are passed down orally.

D. Simple key signature of the song.

Do you know how to play a guitar? If you can play this instrument, you
can try to play a simple folk song. While playing, you will notice that it
starts with a particular key (key of G for example) and ends in that same key.
That only shows the simplicity of the Luzon folk songs.

E. Duple, triple, or quadruple are common meters used.

These meters were very common during that time. The dances and common
songs are based on these meters. The composers of the folk songs adopted
these rhythmic patterns to their compositions.

F. Primarily based on the community’s culture, tradition and livelihood.

G. Short and simple.
 H. Aside from Tagalog, several other dialects are used by unkown
composers from Luzon in composing their own lowland folk songs such as
Ilocano, Kapampangan, Pangasinense, and Bicolano. Spanish and other
western influences are very evident in the construction of the songs such as
the meter used, and the minor and the major modes.

In the next activity “YOUR SONG SOUNDS FAMILIAR”, you will listen to some
samples of Luzon lowland folksongs. Using the YouTube links given in the first
activity, try to browse for the sample songs for your reference then answer the
questions on the next page. Open the YouTube link and listen to the given music
1. What can you say about the lyrics of the folksongs?
2. What are the dialects used in folksongs you just heard?
3. What can you say about the translation of the dialects in other languages?
4. Why do folk songs not change the key signatures?
5. How do people become familiar with the folksongs in the community?
6. Based from the folksongs that you have heard, how do folksongs depict the
community’s tradition, culture, and livelihood?
