Celebrating Pasinaya

In wanting to further enhance camaraderie in the community as well as showcase the talents of its residents, Bel-Air, Makati once again held its annual Pasinaya celebration entitled Summer Na, Bel-Air Na, New Wave Pa. The three-day event commenced with the ceremonial ribbon-cutting by honorable guests Rep. Teddy Boy Locsin, Mayor Jejomar Binay and his lovely wife Dr. Elenita Binay as the Barangay Bel-Air captain Victor Gomez Jr. and Bel-Air Village Association, Inc. president governor Bobby Benares took pride in spirit of togetherness the community portrayed.

Festival director Nene Lichauco worked long and hard to create a truly memorable fiesta for everybody. The final event was the culmination of the Pasinaya Dance Extravaganza where members of the community performed a range of professionally choreographed dance routines making them the stars of the evening. It was a genuinely inspiring celebration proving that unity and solidarity can truly bring about an exhilarating outcome.

A salute to the musical brilliance of Jack

A thunderous applause marked another memorable evening of great music as renowned Filipino baritone Jack Salud graced the opening of Rockwell’s “Feel Harmonic” Independence Day concert held at the mall’s atrium. His lovely wife Kazue, together with family members including Meg, Pong, Chit, George and Dennis Salud were all present to show their support. The brilliant Jack Salud, accompanied by the Manila Philharmonic Orchestra under the baton of maestro Rodel Colmenar, captivated more than a thousand invited Rockwell residents and special guests with his powerful masterpieces such as Ennio Morricone’s Nella Fantasia, Stranger in Paradise and What a Wonderful World. Seen gracing the affair were Rockwell Land’s significant personalities including chairman Oscar Lopez, president Nestor Padilla and GM Malou Pineda. Congratulations!
