The Violist-Composer

Hi to all! Today I'll talk about for some (many) things what I think it could be better in my study program.  I'm studying viola interpretation at the arts of faculty, and I'm in my last semester ongoing. If you have to visited my faculty before, you may know the building: an older building. Each floor, especially the -1 to -3 looks like creepy for me, because make me feel like an a horror movie. Anyway, In terms of curriculum, I think we had classes that were not necessary, because some of them was completely meaningless and unnecessary. 'Guía de Conjuntos' it's like a 'Group's guide' (or something like that).  This class make not sense for me because suppose a guide to 'how you can to create a musical group', but the contents in this class refer about popular groups, like salsa, folk, rock, etc.- so I ask to myself, why should we know how to create a popular group  if we specialize in the classical field?.  I mean, always could be good to b...

 Time travel? Honestly?, I can't imagine that, because are so many possibilities there. But I always felt curiosity about the future, how the mankind will progress (or not). Will the cars, scooters, can fly? 😨 The film movie "back to the future" meant a lot to us. When Marty McFly made the journey  to the future, he had video calls, there are automatic machines, and many other things that were unthinkable for that time. Today, they are a reality! I'm a big fan of technology, that's why I feel a lot of curiosity about how technology will have its relevance  (if already has...?). When will we be able to live on other planets? OMG 😱. Anyway, I would like to take a travel to the past too, maybe 1700's or 1800's and get to know the great composers I've had to study so much: Bach, Beethoven, Brahms...three of my favourite composers (all of them were germans!). To learn about they lived, their friends, inspirations and more curiosities about them.  I would ...

Hi! This is a new blog to this week. When I was a child, one of my favourite passion was the dinosaurs. Learn to knowing/unknowing history, how long they live, ecosystem, etc.- I actually had collected some albums about it.  However, the music always has been present in my life, because my parents and sisters play different instruments. I started playing the drums at the church when I was 9 years old to 14. Then in my 12 I took some violin classes at the Civic Theater of Antofagasta. In the High School I started as a viola player and never halted. I fell in love with its sound; the colors are so beautiful and its warming textures engaged me. I'm currently playing on a few orchestras away from Santiago (Talca, Chillán, Antofagasta), but I do not have a contract yet. So I hope to get a job soon, maybe be as a viola player in orchestra, viola teacher at the school/high school/university, or get a job as a composer :), because  I have two sides: the v...
