The flag’s design was decided by Gen. Emilio Aguinaldo during his exile in Hong Kong. -Gen. Emilio Aguinaldo requested Mrs. Marcela Marino de Agoncillo, the wife of the first Filipino diplomat(Don Felipe Agoncillo), because of her sewing skills. Mrs. Agoncillo, together with her daughter, Lorenza, and Mrs. Delfina Herbosa de Natividad(niece of Dr. Jose Rizal and wife of General Salvador Natividad), made the flag in 535 Morrisson Hill, Hong Kong. III. PHILIPPINE NATIONAL ANTHEM • Upon Gen. Aguinaldo’s return from Hong Kong on June 5, 1898, he met with Julian Felipe and asked him to compose a national anthem. • Originally called “Marcha Filipina Magdalo” and performed without lyrics with a tempo of 2/4; later known as “Marcha Nacional Filipina” • A year after the composition of the anthem, the lyrics were adopted form Jose Palma’s poem Filipinas, which was in Spanish;(but sometimes was changed to 4/4 because the music was too fast for singing) • During Magsaysay’s administration, then Education Secretary Gregorio Hernandez commissioned the revision of the lyrics to Tagalog. In Julian Felipe’s memoirs, it was said that the National Anthem was based on three musical pieces namely, The Marcha Real, the Grand March Giuseppe Verde’s Aida, and La Marseillaise. Second national anthem written; the first was “Marangal na Dalit ng Katagalugan” commissioned by Andres Bonifacio and compose by musician Julio Nakpil in 1897. Together with the Philippine Flag, they were presented during the proclamation of independence in June 12, 1898, in Cavite el Viejo(Kawit, Cavite). It was played by the band of San Francisco de Malabon. The anthem was finally sung in Filipino on May 26, 1956; minor revision were made in 1960s and it is the version that we sing today.
