O’s Notes: Sugilanon is the story of the Philippine-American immigration experience in the early 1900s through today. The focal city is San Francisco, illustrated musically and with vocals and narrative by Caroline Julia Cabading. Melecio Magdaluyo (sax) compliments the story with warm solos as on “My Soul Mate”, “Fits Just Fine”, and “Baby Ko”. There’s a meaningful history illustrated across 26 selections, notably on “Baby Carolina”, “Madeline and Napoleon”, “Fred”, and “Caroline”.
