Hi.. I’m doing research on Eriberto “Berting Buta” Montenegro, a Cebuano composer from Dalaguete. (Composer of the song Lagkaw). I was told he is buried at Carreta Cemetery. I need historical data (date of birth, death) and this could be seen in the grave marker. Would you know if people there know his gravesite? Thanks
Hi Fr. Hermel! Is that the Carreta Cemetery in Cebu City? Would you know the year of composer’s demise? He should be considered as a national treasure for the timeless songs he had composed one of which is Lagkaw, our family’s old time favorite.
Hello Lorna!
Thanks for the comment on my query posted in early 2017.
Yes, that’s the Carreta cemetery in Cebu City.
Since 2017 I have done research on the songs- recalling, recording, and initially transcribing them into musical notation.
The 2019 pandemic has stopped the research until we go into the new normal after this global health crisis. I would pursue it in the direction of heritage research.
Stay safe and God bless!
The original composer of this is pastor Estelito Alejandria from Dalaguete and was sold by Berting buta.
Hello Sean!
I appreciate your reply very much!

I am taking note of your clarification and I would like to look into links to gain insight into the musical provenance of the song, “Lagkaw,” especially in the attribution of the song to Berting ‘Buta’ Montenegro, which apparently gained traction such that the Municipality of Dalaguete and Cebu City itself has recognized him in various public fora, e.g., in the recognition/awards given to him. I shall also look into your claim, identifying Pastor Estelito Alejandria as the original composer. If you have links to the kin of Pastor Estelito Alejandria, I would gladly appreciate knowledge about that. In fact, I am now trying to find links to the surviving kin of Berting Buta Montenegro, in order to recognize them in applying for the intellectual property rights to the several song pieces that I have researched and recorded (Lagkaw excluded). Daghang salamat!
