Multi-awarded actress and Time Magazine Asian Heroine Chin-Chin Gutierrez makes her debut as a musical artist and record producer with the release of “UYAYI: A Collection of Philippine Lullabies” -- an enchanted journey featuring a unique collection of traditional lullabies, which was launched last December 8, 2003 at Mag:Net Gallery at The Loop@9501, ABS-CBN Compound, Quezon City.
Featuring lullabies collected from across the archipelago, UYAYI is a collaboration of kindred spirits – artists, musicians and educators, village leaders and common folks, dreamers and visionaries – who continue to hear the music that brings us back to the soothing joy and comfort of the cradle. Among the featured artists and arrangers in the album are music shamans Bo Razon, Joey Ayala, Tots Tolentino, Malou Matute and Rachel Conanan, who conjured magical interpretations of these traditional melodies.
Known for her multi-faceted talents as a film actress, theater artist and environmental activist, Chin-Chin Gutierrez refers to UYAYI as an “intimate advocacy”.
