Talent has never been the problem," Musicondalla founder and CEO Mariefrance Vasquez Ballester said.

"What our industry needs is a stronger culture of systematization. Music can be both a passion and a profession. Filipino musicians deserve structures that allow them to build sustainable careers while protecting the cultural heritage they create and preserve," Ballester said.
