Batangas and is characterized by its smooth, flowing, and gentle rhythm.
Though Kundiman songs are now known throughout the Philippines, many
of the earliest ones originated in Batangas.
Quezon

● "Pabasa" - A traditional chant usually sung during the Holy Week as part of
the “Pasyon” or the Passion of Christ. Quezon is known for its unique
version of this traditional chanting.
Laguna
● "O Maliwanag na Buwan" - A traditional song often associated with the
province of Laguna. It has been passed down through generations and
reflects the early musical traditions of the region.
Rizal
● "Ang Dalagang Pilipina" - This traditional song praises the virtues of a
Filipina and is widely believed to have origins in the early musical
traditions of the Rizal province.
Cavite
● "Tayo na sa Antipolo" - While the lyrics suggest Antipolo, this song is
traditionally associated with Cavite due to the region’s historical ties to
pilgrimage practices.
