LONDON- ‘It’s an honor and privilege to have the opportunity to show our talent and proudly wear our kimona on the world stage." Ito ang naging pahayag ni Keren Miyazaki, miyembro ng Basingstoke Filipino Choir, matapos magtanghal ang kanilang grupo sa Coronation Concert nina King Charles III at Queen Camilla sa Windsor Castle sa Berskhire, England noong May 7. Isa ang grupo ng mga Pilipino mula sa Basingstoke, Hampshire sa 300 performers mula sa 18 choral groups na inawit ang kantang ‘Brighter Days’ ng British singer-songwriter na si Emeli Sandé, sa engrandeng selebrasyon.<div class='embed-wrap'><figure data-feedback='fb:likes,fb:comments'><img alt='1' src='https://sa.kapamilya.com/absnews/abscbnnews/media/2023/tfc/06/01/basingstoke-filipino-choir1.jpg' ></figure></div>"Up to the point before our performance, I was still taking it all in as everything felt surreal.

It was only after the shoot when they told us that we were chosen as one of the choirs to sing for the King,’ kwento ni Estrada na isang nurse.Apat na linggo silang naghanda para sa konsyerto kung saan kasama nilang nagtanghal ang iba pang singing groups na kumakatawan sa iba’t ibang sektor gaya ng healthcare workers, LGBTQ+, refugees at persons with disabilities.‘We received the full music score and voice tracks to practice with. For two weeks, we practiced as our own group in Basingstoke and sent our rehearsal videos to Coronation Choir Master Gareth Malone. We were then invited to Windsor and sang a full 300 choir at St. George’s Chapel,’ saad ni Estrada.Binuo ni Estrada ang Basingstoke Filipino Choir noong August 2002 matapos siyang hikayatin ng noo’y parish priest sa kanilang simbahan para tulungan ang mga bagong dating na Filipino nurses na nangungulila sa kanilang mga pamilya.Nakabase ang choir, na mayroong 25 miyembro, sa St. Bede’s Catholic Church sa Basingstoke, Hampshire.‘Honoured and proud’Ipinagmamalaki naman ng mag-asawang nurse at Covid-19 survivors na sina Edgar at Bing Sablay mula Guildford, England, ang maging bahagi ng makasaysayang koronasyon noong May 6.Napili sila para maging parte ng audience sa Queen Victoria Memorial Grandstand sa tapat ng Buckingham Palace mula sa raffle na binuksan para sa National Health Service (NHS).<div class='embed-wrap'><figure data-feedback='fb:likes,fb:comments'><img alt='bing' src=' https://sa.kapamilya.com/absnews/abscbnnews/media/2023/tfc/06/01/edgar-at-bing-sablay-2.jpg' ><figcaption>Ang mag-asawang Covid-19 survivors na sina Edgar at Bing Sablay mula Guildford, England.</figcaption></figure></div>"There was overwhelming happiness to attend a once-in-a-time event.
