The Filipino word 'kinalugaran' refers to the site where something is set in position. "Kinalugarán" highlights invisibility among inhabited places as it interrogates Filipino artists based in first-world diaspora: violinist Ramon Alfonso Soberano (Tempe, Arizona, United States); film composer Marie-Luise Calvero (Freiburg, Germany); and theatre creator Riley Palanca (Montreal, Canada).
"Kinalugarán" includes additional recordings of Philippine indigenous instruments (“Idaw,” “Dayaw”) by Jayson Palolan, used with permission. The creation of “Kinalugarán" is made possible with the support of the Ontario Arts Council.
After finishing studies at the University of the Philippines and McGill University, Toronto-based composer Juro Kim Feliz has premiered his work across Asia, North America, and Europe. Awards include the Goethe Southeast Asian Young Composer Award in 2009 and a “Highly Commended” distinction at the Ars Electronica Forum Wallis in 2018.
