Introduction Why the book is being written. The main reason I am writing this book is that as a Jazz musician and bandleader no one has even featured him as one of the better known Filipino Jazz pianists who began his career before the Pacific War of 1941. Aside from the fact that his role as Jazz musician in Philippine society was historically significant to a nation's growth, Jazz musicians played vital roles in the country's development after the war.
