I love the Blogs!

I really liked being able to make these blogs.  It allows me to write certain aspects that I consider important and share them with my other classmates.  I can also remember certain personal moments.  In addition, writing in English helps me to generate a better understanding of the language and put it into practice in the future.

For example, writing about our pets, dreams or important aspects of our academic and university education, is a very good way of communicating, so we have the opportunity to express our opinions and feelings about the topics that I wrote previously.

Also, in this way I can remember how much I liked to write blogs.  When I was in school, I loved to write on my blog, like a diary of life, and coming back to that reminds me my school days.

With respect to the topics which I would like to write about, I think it might be interesting to add more personal opinions on deeper issues or current contingency.  Criticism about politic, social problems, religion, news, or opinions about public events that concern us as students and as Chileans. I think it would also be very useful to be able to talk more about aspects directly related to our appreciation of art in Chile and the world.

Música de Cámara!!

Since this year I have had the privilege of study a subject that I had personally been waiting for years and that is tremendously useful for my musical formation: Música de Cámara. This subject consists on forming an instrumental group, in my case vocal and instrumental, and performing some repertoire of our choice and with the teacher’s approval.

I have always dreamed of doing a musical piece for baritone soloist and baroque chamber group, the cantata 82 de J.S.  Bach. This year I gathered a group of instrumentalists who trusted in my work and decided to help me to do this musical piece .

We find an amazing teacher, the director Miguel Angel Castro, who was very motivated to do this work with us and has been a tremendous and wise guide for my group and especially for me, since he is a teacher with a lot of knowledge of the Baroque and especially of Bach's piece.

Bach's music is a real challenge, because it requires a lot of rehearsal, a lot of personal and group study, a correct guide and a very good assembly. Also, in Chile, there are not many expert teachers in baroque and less in Bach.  For these reasons I feel very fortunate to do this musical piece and be constantly congratulated by the teacher to be doing a good job. I think that  I'm understanding this piece of music and I feel it internalized in my vocal technique and my interpretation.!
