Based in Los Angeles, Pakaraguian Kulintang Ensemble (PKE) is dedicated to performing, preserving, and sharing the gong-chime music and dance traditions of the southern Philippines. Their performances bring to life the interlocking rhythms, layered melodies, and graceful dances of the Maguindanao, Maranao, Tausug, Sama, and Yakan peoples, blending authenticity with a sense of connection to contemporary Los Angeles.
