Some music doesn't fade — it grows more meaningful with time. OPM legend Kuh Ledesma proves just that as she reunites with the iconic showband, The Music & Magic for an intimate concert experience on January 31 and February 1.

Titled “Kuh Ledesma and The Music & Magic,” the two-night event will take place at the breathtaking Hacienda Isabella in Indang, Cavite, inside the newly opened A.R.T.E. (Arts. Restaurant. Entertainment) Theater.

The Music & Magic was one of the most phenomenal and influential showbands of the late '70s, shaping a golden era of live entertainment with elegance, soul, and musical excellence. Decades later, its original members—Fe De Los Reyes, Jet Montelibano (who also serves as co-stage director with Kuh), and Vicky Sevilla-Pangilinan—reunite not to relive the past, but to celebrate it with gratitude and grace.

They will be joined by musical director Bobby Taylo, along with Butch Elizalde and Nonoy Mendoza, plus a special appearance from new-generation guest artists, bridging generations and reminding everyone that great music never loses its power.

“This reunion isn't about nostalgia alone,” Kuh said in a statement

“It's about honoring the journey — the friendships, the music, and the quiet miracles that happen when people come together with purpose.”

More than a concert, the evening is carefully curated as a full sensory experience. Guests are invited to arrive by 6:00 p.m. for an intimate dinner at Constant Garden, followed by the 8:00 p.m. concert at the A.R.T.E. Theater, all set within the serene, countryside charm of Hacienda Isabella.

The concert package is priced at PhP3,000 per person, which includes dinner, the concert, post-show cocktails, and an exclusive photo opportunity with Kuh and The Music & Magic. For those looking to turn the night into a peaceful out-of-town escape, overnight accommodations with breakfast are also available for PhP5,500 (good for two) or PhP7,200 (good for four).

Known not only for her powerful voice but for her deep faith and reflective artistry, Kuh brings a quiet spiritual depth to the show — a presence that lingers long after the final note.

“Music has always been a way for me to express gratitude. When it's shared with people you love, in a place that invites stillness and joy — that's where the real magic happens," she noted.

With Cavite's calm countryside as its backdrop, the experience is tailor-made for couples, friends, and lifelong music lovers who appreciate moments that stay with you.

If you ever danced, fell in love, or found comfort in their music — this reunion is for you.
