The Kudyapi Choir was formed in 2004 as part of the Iskwelang Pinoy cultural group of the Centro Filipino (School of Centro Filipino) founded by Sister Paulita Astillero. But years later she retired and it was then, that Nats Sisma Villaluna and Arnel German Lamorena decided to continue with the choir, which was originally known as the Centro Filipino Coro Infantil.
