Salinlahi Serenata Singers

The Salinlahi Serenata Singers or fondly called SaSeSi is the official and resident choral ensemble of Bulihan Integrated National High School in Silang, Cavite. It was established on July 2013 by music educator and conductor Mr. Aristeo B. Butial through the help of their principal Mr. W***y D. Federico and head teacher of MAPEH Department Mr. Emeterio S. Vargas Jr. It became one of the pillars of performing arts in the said school promoting culture and arts through choral music. In 2015, when the Special Program in the Arts established, the group was tied up in order to utilize and serve as training ground for students majoring music with an emphasis in voice performance. Presently, the program is supervised by Mr. Ranier R. Gaspar as program coordinator. The choral group is composed of talented students from Junior and Senior High School raging from grade 9-12 and categorized as mixed youth choir. Students were carefully selected through annual open audition. After passing the audition, they will undergo intensive voice lesson, musicianship skills and choral rehearsals and sectionals to maintain high standard of musical excellence. SaSeSi performs in school functions, community and cultural celebration, religious and civic activities, and joins choral festivals and competitions. They sing wide array of choral works done with local and foreign composers and arrangers from periodic music to contemporary music. Also, they are continuously developing through attending and participating various workshops, masterclasses, and cliniquing given experts in choral music. The Salinlahi Serenata Singers aims to:
