Musical Theater Songwriter William Elvin To Release New Album Of Personal Songs In October

After producing a string of original Filipino musicals, including 2011’s “Rizal X”, 2013’s “Maxie The Musicale” and 2016’s “Mula sa Buwan”, singer-songwriter William Elvin is set to release a new collection of personal songs on Spotify and Apple Music in October this year.

Having gained fan support through his emotionally vulnerable and brutally honest musical works, songs such as Ang Sabi Nila (Mula sa Buwan), But I Love No One But You and Tonight, I Break Some Promises (Rizal X) have garnered thousands of listeners on Spotify. With the new album’s release, William aims to express his musical message on a more personal level and connect with his listeners more intimately.

ART IS A BANG: Maxie The Musical is the Best Filipino Musical of The Year!

That is what I can say confidently to all (and even you) as I witnessed the cast played the songs that has been playing in my head after the press preview of Maxie the Musical (Ang Pagdadalaga ni Maximo Oliveros) at the PETA Theater this November.

Maxie the Musical inspired from the indie movie which won awards and shown in international film festivals was also a hit in the Theatrical version. With songs made by great composers/singers William Elvin Manzano, JJ Pimpinio, and Janine Santos. Direction and choreography by Dexter M. Santos.
