Under the masterful direction of conductor Nancy Roman, the acclaimed ensemble achieved a stellar lineup of awards:

  • Gold Award – Unrestricted Category

Standing out as the sole choir representing both the Philippines and Asia, the group shared the international stage alongside elite choral ensembles from Estonia, Germany, Belgium, Lithuania, and the United Kingdom.

The college celebrates this extraordinary milestone and commends the glee club for its dedication to artistic excellence and national pride.
