The Silliman University Cultural Affairs Council (SUCAC) opened the university’s cultural season with “Strings Delight,” a concert featuring international cellist Mikko Pablo on September 16, 2023 at the Claire Isabel McGill Auditorium.
Pablo was assisted by guitarist Gonzalo Misa and pianist April Merced-Misa. Other assisting artists were home-grown talents Silliman University String Ensemble and Don Bosco String Ensemble.
Aside from the concert, Pablo gave a masterclass to the SU Strings Ensemble from September 14-16.
Pablo hails from Cebu and started playing cello when he was 16 years old. After two years, he studied with Bongshin Ko and Daniel Rothmuller of the Los Angeles Philharmonic on a full scholarship. He finished his studies in 2020 under the mentorship of Justus Grimm at the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp in Belgium. Since then, he has collaborated with international musicians and played in various ensembles.
CAC will feature three more major events at the Luce Auditorium for the first semester. On October 27 and 28, a musical play, “Ang Mikado” will be staged. On November 25, Maestro Ryan Cayabyab and the Ryan Cayabyab Singers will have a concert. Closing the first half of the cultural season is the Loboc Children’s Choir who will have a Christmas concert and outreach concerts for the Silliman University School of Basic Education.
