The Big-Little General

Philip Cesar Nadela, the Champion of the 1st Little Dreamer of Pinoy Dream Academy of media giant ABS-CBN, partied with his fellow Generals during his homecoming. A victory dinner was given by the local government in partnership with Six Blings proprietor Mr. Bebot Haw.  Of course, Genrhythmics provided the entertainment for the Little General’s well-wishers, fans and family. 

The Victory Dinner was an intimate affair of not more than 200 guests. Yet, it was well attended by the local government officials.  Especially, the members of the City Council, who passed the resolution that urged all the people of General Santos City to vote for Philip during the competition.  Although the Honorable City Mayor, Pedro B. Acharon, Jr. accompanied by the First Lady, Dr. Rose Acharon, made a personal appearance his message was delivered by the Honorable City Councilor, Megs Santos.  His message tells of the unfathomable pride and great appreciation of the Generals for his accomplishment of putting the limelight once more to General Santos City. 

Yes, Philip, we are truly proud of you!!!!

Genrhythmics, a division of the GSC Government Employees’ Performing Arts Company, is composed of government employees from the Local Government Unit of General Santos. The group’s exposures include government functions and affairs, especially during state dinners for special guests and dignitaries. As such, much is expected of the group as its audience demands class, clarity of lyrics and music, fun and excitement.

Its repertoire transcends era and genre.

Among the well-loved and highly acclaimed renditions are contemporary, rhythm and blues, alternative, jazz, bossanova, mellow rock and country.

GenRhythmics’s comparative advantage over other popular bands in the city is the professionalism of the member artists whose passion for music is the driving force for unparalleled performance on or off stage.
