Blog 8: A subject I enjoyed studying this semester.

 Hi Everyone. Today I´m going to talk about a subject that I enjoyed this time, it is call "Cinema and Theater"  One of the reason that I study compositional music it is because I like movies, for me John Williams (composer of many movies like Star Wars, Harry Potter, E.T and others) was an example of what I would like to be, so this subject is one of my major subjects of my career that I´m taking right know to finish my last year. Mostly all the subject that I  have had at the university were full  theoretical contents, that´s fine because we learn a lot of compositional methods and we understand better how music it works, but in this case all the contents of Cinema and Theater are based on making music for producers, with a professional team that are in projects like chilean movies, shorts films, theater plays and more.  In this case, I have to create a piece of music from a chilean movie "La Riqueza del Mundo", they want an specific music style, sounds a...

 Hello. Today I´m going to talk about how my major can make the world a better place. Well... is an interesting question, because some time ago I was thinking about my next step that I have to take after I finish my major. This is the last year in my career so I had a plan that includes to travel to another country and learn more about musical composition. At the first time it is sound amazing and exciting, but the time passed and I realize that this is not really what I want, so this make me change my plans.  It is logical from a musician to get expertise in the countries that classical music has more impact in the society and also has the best players around the world. But there´s something that was missing for me, the importance of sharing the knowledge of music with people that have the interest in this area, and spread our ideas in new listeners too. Like student, for me it is so difficult to know al the subjects that musical studying evolved, but in the last time I ...

  Hi eveyone! Today I going to talk about one of my favorites photograph at this moment, the picture is from Temuco when I went to visit my friend Felicia, she lives there. It was this summer, when we have the opportunity to go on vacation to another region with the sanitary passport, obviously I took the chance and it was there for a week. I love so much this picture because represents a deep breath in the pandemic situation with lovely people, when it was not healthy to stay in home for a hole year. We enjoyed everyday, all day long. In Temuco we taken a tour around the city on bicycle, and we ate delicious home food from her mother, it was a really good escape. Also in the photograph the guy who took the picture its one of my best friends,  Amin. We met him in Temuco´s downtown and it was a lucky situation, because he was working in Pucón at that time and then one day he came to visit us, and with him we did a tour for the city, so that its how we take the picture. See ya!...
