Description
LALÒ Immersive reimagines choral performance for the era of spatial computing, bringing the voices of the Filipino-American LALÒ Ensemble to life with the warmth of home and the harmony of shared belonging through Immersive Video and Spatial Audio.
New for the Holiday Season:
Two holiday performances recorded live at the 38th Annual Palo Alto Christmas Crèche are now available free for a limited time. Featuring O Holy Night and Mary Did you Know, these Songs of Light place you inside a beloved Bay Area tradition, surrounded by voices, culture, and celebration.
This edition also introduces Sea to Shining Sea, LALÒ’s newest immersive concert exploring freedom, struggle, and belonging through Filipino and American choral works connected to both nations’ independence days. Recorded during live performances in June and July 2025 using Immersive 180° and 4K Video with Spatial Audio, the program places you inside harmonies shaped by heritage and hope.
Sea to Shining Sea features world premieres of:
• Bayan Ko 2.0 – Nilo Alcala
• Narito ang Diyos (Ubi Caritas) – GP Eleria
• Lives Lived More – Paulo K. Tiról
Sea to Shining Sea joins LALÒ’s growing library of immersive performances, including prior concerts like Panunulúyan, behind-the-scenes rehearsals, and additional features. Each performance is presented in high-fidelity spatial formats and set within scanned and reconstructed environments built from the real venues where the ensemble performed.
New Content Access Flow
Videos now unlock day-by-day, offering a guided way to experience the music. For those who want immediate access including the behind scenes, the full concert library can be unlocked at once through an optional in-app purchase.
