Along with art and poetry, SIRENA blends a personal story, family secrets, a mythic love triangle ending in the beginning of a nation, the displacement of its people, an individual’s perspective of belonging and a spectacular celebration of community. The music includes traditional Filipino kundiman songs, kulintang, with new compositions combined with jazz and classical influences.
