If the auditions and preliminary rounds were tough enough, the road to winning “Your Song of Excellence: Duo Legacy,” with premier partner Derma Angel Philippines as co-presenter, gets even tougher during the semifinals.
The twelve pairs of semifinalists for one of the biggest singing-songwriting competitions in the land have already been determined, and each pair of both singers-songwriters or a singer and a songwriter will surely go all out even more to reach the finals and find out who’s the best among the best.
The Top 12 Semi-Finalists for “Your Song of Excellence: Duo Legacy” are:
• Braggy Angels
• Day & Night
• DRVN
• HARANAJEEB
• Johann and Sheena
• MaCho
• Mandarhyme Duo
• Ronika & TJ
• S&K
• The Queens
• The Unexpected Duo
The grind-out semis will most certainly bring out the finest in each of the hopeful pairs as they are joined by the competition’s judges who will also act as their mentors—Yeng Constantino, Ice Seguerra, Paulo Zarate, and new judge Kean Cipriano—who will guide them in their journey towards becoming successful in a tough but rewarding local music scene.
So how do the 12 couples grind it out and make it to the next stage of the competition? Each pair will again be given a second specific song theme to write about and then perform during the semis. The song should last for only one minute and thirty seconds.
Tough enough, right?
And from there, it will be even tougher than they could ever imagine as only the Top 3 (?) pairs out of the 12 semi-finalists will have the chance to move and compete in the coveted Grand Final round.
“We know that our semifinalists are tough enough and will get even more innovative in writing their next songs. The talent of Filipinos when it comes to musical creativity and innovativeness is practically second to none, and given that Taiwan is heavily leaned towards innovation, we are definitely excited in what’s going to happen in the semifinals, all the way to the Grand Finals,” declares Alex Lai, Director of the Taiwan External Trade Development Council (TAITRA).
Other major brand partners for “Your Song of Excellence: Duo Legacy” include D-Link, MSI, Gigabyte, Acer, Aorus, Zyxel, ROG, Tatung, Asus, and AOPEN.
Twice the fun. Twice the excitement. Twice the grand display of musical talent. All of these happening in this year’s “Your Song of Excellence: Duo Legacy.”
