Hear the bells ring! Shang unveils melodious sights and sounds for the holidays

 


Press Release:

There is nothing quite like a Filipino Christmas. The merriest time of the year never fails to fill the streets, homes, and even malls with Christmas carols that instantly wrap everyone up with feelings of warmth and joy. Shangri-La Plaza welcomes the season in the most melodious way possible, exactly how Filipinos make this holiday a true standout – with carols and bells.

The Philippine Madrigal Singers serenaded mall guests with the iconic Carols of the Bells and other popular Christmas tunes.


“Our holiday celebration this year is inspired by Carol of the Bells, an enduring Christmas song that’s beloved for its angelic melody that evokes the wonder and excitement of the season,” shares Joy R. Polloso, Executive Vice President for Retail and Commercial at Shang Properties, Inc. “It’s one of the best songs to usher in the season with lines like ‘Christmas is here bringing good cheer.’”

The magical sounds of the HOPE Bell Ringers also joined Shangri-La Plaza’s Tree Lighting ceremony,
which welcomed the holiday season.


“We want to highlight carols and bells that have become icons of the season, and focus on how the sounds of Christmas—from the ringing bells heralding Christ's birth to carolers hopping between houses and church bells sounding the 9-day Simbang Gabi—encourage us to embrace the good cheer and sentimentality the season brings.

According to Joy R. Polloso, Executive Vice President for Retail and Commercial at Shang Properties, Inc., the carols and bells theme encourages us to embrace the good cheer and sentimentality the season brings.




Shang imparts this message to our mall guests as a way to welcome this season of joy, peace, and harmony, wishing everyone a bountiful year ahead.” At the Grand Atrium, mall guests are going to see massive hanging bells with a creative array of lighting that’s inspired by the dazzling colors of the aurora borealis and shooting stars. The design transforms the atrium into a place of wonder with the hanging bells gracefully moving up and down as the lights flicker and dance, giving spectators a magical out-of-this-world holiday light show.

Carols are also going to sound around the Shang as it is giving musicians and carolers the platform to perform merry tunes and nostalgic songs to delight every mall guest. Hear their choruses echo around the mall on November 12, 25, and 26 and December 10 and 17 at either Grand or East Atrium. Caroling has been a longstanding tradition that also highlights the Filipinos’ innate generosity and jovial nature. By putting the spotlight on musicians and Christmas carols this season, Shangri-La Plaza hopes to bring people together and cheer them up through enchanting melodies of love and faith.
