Mindanao Sketches comprising of two acts - I. Offering to the Gods and II. A Village Festival Dance was composed by National Artist for Music Col. Antonino R. Buenaventura in 1947.

First performed by the Municipal Symphony Orchestra of Manila on May 15, 1948 at the UST Gymnasium. The world premiere performance was on Aug. 19, 1948 in Honolulu, Hawaii. Was performed in USA, Europe and Soviet Russia. A recording was cut by London Symphony Orchestra under conductor Redentor Romero.

The Mindanao Sketches is based on rhythm of the dances and songs of the Manobo tribe who duel in the hinterland of Bukidnon. The use of native gongs, clapping of hands, human voices and other percussion instruments make the two movements "Offering to the Gods" and "A Village Festival Dance" depicts its original form in a most enjoyable experience.
