    • Entrevistas musicales

For almost 20 years Cezar (also fondly called Chief or Chiep in the industry) has played with the "Mega Band" of Sharon Cuneta at the height of her career in music and show business as the main guitar player & arranger for The Sharon Cuneta show.
Cezar has recorded for most if not ALL of the most popular singers and musicians in the country,  as guitarist and/ or arranger, which comprises an enviable list  that includes the likes of: Sharon Cuneta, Regine Velasquez, Leah Salonga, Martin Nievera, Gary Valenciano, Janno GIbbs, Ogie Alcasid, Zsa Zsa Padilla, Lani Misalucha, Ariel Rivera, Sarah Geronimo, Ice Seguerra, Pops Fernandez, Agot Isidro (having produced her “Winds of Change” album as well), Zsa Zsa Padilla, Kuh Ledesma, Randy Santiago, Gino Padilla, Side A, Jaya, Lloyd Umali, Jamie Rivera, Donna Cruz, Roselle Nava, Noel Cabangon, Mon David, Cesar Montano, Tony Maigue, John Lesaca, and he’s arranged songs for the late Ric Segreto’s compositions for his last album before he passed away due to a motorcycle accident.
He has also toured as Regine Velasquez’s main guitartist for the past 20 years in her world concert tours of the USA, Europe, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, UAE & Asia.
He also toured as Lea Salonga’s guitarist in tours of UAE & Hongkong w/ the Hongkong Philharmonic Orchestra
He's done session work for foreign acts like:
Michael Johnson, David Pomeranz, Christopher Cross, Patti Austin, Angela Bofill, Phil Perry, Pauline Wilson (of seawind), Stephen Bishop, Kenny Rankin & Rex Smith.
Some of his works on TV include:
The Sharon Cuneta Show, Sharon, Star In A Million, The Singing Bee, Pinoy Pop Superstar, Popstar Kids, It’s Showtime, Party Pilipinas, Sunday All Stars & The Voice Philippines
In 2019 he performed as the only Filipino musician in Lea Salonga's: The Story of My Life (Live from Manila album - with the BYU Chamber Orchestra of Utah) where she sang her broadway and disney hits (ranging  from On My Own from Les Miserables, Reflection from the movie Mulan - Let It Go from the movie Frozen, and Defying Gravity from Wicked).
He has also been the guitarist for ABS CBN Philharmonic Orchestra (for the last10 Years) and also the Co-Musical Director for THE VOICE Philippines (for the past 6 Years)
If you've heard top 40 pop radio hits in the Philippines from the 90's to present, there's a very high likelihood that he was part of it (either through his arranging or playing).
