Pusong Nagmamahal (Kundiman) Ruben Tagalog video:


A classic Tagalog recording from the mid 1950's by the "King of Kundiman", Ruben Tagalog. "Pusong Nagmamahal" is a Kundiman composition by Maestro Constancio de Guzman. Ruben Tagalog (b.1920; d.1983), a Filipino actor and musician, was very famous for his works in the Harana/Kundiman style. He was also a part of renowned Mabuhay Singers. He first caught the attention of radio listeners in the 1940's when he hosted his own radio program, "Harana ni Ruben Tagalog". His baritone voice filled his songs 'Ramona', 'Sayang', 'Azucena' and 'Nasaan Ka Ngayon' with emotion. He revived danzas and balitaws like 'Nahan Kaya Ikaw', 'Bakit Ka Lumuluha', 'Barong Tagalog', 'Dalagang Pilipina' and 'Caprichosa'. He was the first artist to record 'Bayan Ko'. Ruben Tagalog was first encouraged to take a singing career path by National Artist Atang dela Rama while singing with teenager friends in a local pier in his hometown Iloilo. In 1937, he and his two older sisters moved to Manila to try their career in singing. The three started humbly by singing from house to house, until they were discovered by showman Lou Salvador. As the group known as the Wanderers Trio, Ruben and his sisters sang at the Plaza Theater and at radio musical shows. As he went solo, his career flourished singing in radio programs and even hosting his own program entitled Harana ni Ruben, and eventually in stage shows at Clover Theater. Inspite of his last name being "Tagalog", he was actually a Visayan from Iloilo and was a speaker of the Visayan language Hiligaynon (aka Ilonggo). He released at least two Cebuano Visayan albums. "Ruben Tagalog sings Visayan Songs" and a duet album with Cebuana singer Nora Hermosa called "Duet In Visayan". Having the ability to channel his emotions to his songs brought him to fame and 12 long playing albums between 1955 and 1970 under the Villar Recording Company; pairing with such stars as Conching Rosal, Sylvia la Torre, Carmen Camacho and Cely Bautista. Two years before his death in 1983, he was awarded a Gintong Gawad by the Cecil Awards for his achievements in Philippine music. He died at the age of 63.
