My future job

well, my job is certain the most obviously, because  I study classical guitar interpretation, and the way to continue  is the performer guitarrist and the teaching path. but... I don´t know, i have some ideas to try to do... I will tell you my bigest idea: One of my favorites thing is ride in a bike (ciclotourism) and I think arround this for a long time, so, somtime of my life, I will try to mix my two passion, the bike and the guitar. One of the ways I see to do this is, organizing a concert tour where I will to be able to go cycling, , arriving to places where they shelter me some days before for practice the repertoire I will play, and later do the concert and continue pedaling.   Of course it a unusual work, but highly comforting to me. One of the aspects that I would have to take into account is having good guitar safety equipment. at the same time I need to worry about the weather conditions. Obviously, in a winter season, my fingers will get cold a...

The Best Concert Ever

A few years ago, in Villarrica, I went to a closing of master classes that were taking place in the school of music and Cultural Foundation Papageno (foundation which helps me monetarily for my studies). Where students of cello and the teacher played for the end of the course called TTT   (teachers teach teachers) the teacher was Umberto Clerici, which I did not know and which I had very well comments of, it was then the concert to which I went with less expectations, it was free and took place in a hall of the School, that can accommodate only about 20 people. After listening to some cello students, the moment arrived where together with some students, Umberto would play. I think the room had more students than viewers, and of course Villarrica is not a big city, much less attached to culture and arts, so. At the moment when the chairs are moving, Umberto began to speak in a very weak Spanish and that after a few words he decided to use Italian, saying: "I think if I spea...

A country I'd like to visit

If I saved enough money for a trip, I would  like to visit Japan, I saw in a web site some good comments about this country. This country have a great roads to do on bike and a lot of beauty landscapes to see, Thanks to the great politic relation  between chile and japan is too accessible to travel without doing a lot of errands, and the stay in japan can be longer than a year (if you have money to stay there). The weather in japan is tempered and the only problem can be the rain, but  you can refuge in the temples for free,not inside but close,  some comments about temples is “you can sleep very safe and sound in there”. When I started to do ciclotourism I went to argentina with my best friend Felipe. We started in Villarrica  going to Bariloche. We haved a tent, food and clothes in ours saddlebags. We pedal on day, and in the night we assembled the tent and slept. thanks to this experience I falling in love with the ciclotuorism and...

If I want a year to travel around the world.

When I have been travel in bike (in the bicycle touring mode)  I found information about a one of the biggest cycle rute in the world, this calling EuroVelo, and of course it's a great challenge. Located in europe this cycle rute develops in all the countries around the Europe and its extends by thousands of kilometers. now, it is necesary to say, EuroVelo has 17  routes, and choosing one is very difficult, because, all the routes contains  lovely places to go, and many countries to visit, This cycle route it was co-financed by the European union and the ECF (European Cyclists Federaton) and under the accion of the Sustainable Tourism this could be the strong argument to say "you can visit all europe with your strength" So, if I choose rigth now the EuroVelo route (one of the 17) I thnk I choose the number 7, "The Sun rute". The EuroVelo 7 starts in Norway and it goes through 7 countries, until to finish in Malta. Why this rute?, I heard norway have nice p...

A biography of a inspirational person

I  have never heard anybody like him, this apreciation of music is very deep and focused and until the day, i can't find a guitarrist that dares to do the thinks thas they do. So, I try to make a sincere biography about this famous guitarist and musician.  Julian Bream This English performer was born on 15 july of 1933 in Balttersea (south london) and started his career in his early years, first with the piano and later, (arround the 13 years old ) with the guitar. Why he aproach to the guitar? he says to de BBC interview, he always see his father play the jazz guitar, and a day he took the guitar of his father and tried to make some rasgueados like jazz guitar. this day his father came back early to home and find a little Julian, and asked him if he has interested in take guitar lessons, and he say; yes! From there on, he started a glorious carrer playng guitar in fantastic places an recording a lot of discs, and won a lot of awards including four Grammy awa...

Paranormal activities. What I think

I haver never lived a paranormal activity, but I don't discard the existence of this, example. A friend who travelled to Brazil told me, he saw aparently an intergalactic  battle, YES! a INTERGALACTIC BATTLE!, like Star wars or Guardians of the galaxy, he didn't explain to me clear, but he described it with hand moves, he said to me, he never lived  a similar experince. Later, a couple of weeks ago, he showed  me a video, and I said: "I can´t explain that". and he responded: "that's what I saw" now I bring to you a link of the video in Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7RmUULDrorE   I know the special effects used in movies, but does a friend tells you!, mm... I'm so confused and I dont know what to think. An extra data: my friend never lies to me, and never gave me a sings of being a mythomanic, so, if you have a similar experience, TELL ME! I'm dying of curiosity. Regards.

Technology after all

The guitar structure has advanced during the years, looking for more projection of the sound. From 1850, the guitarists try to be too much louder, because the guitar can be translated to big concert halls, but it wasn’t until 90’s if he guitar thanks’ to the luthier Greg Smallman, he brings to the guitar a new technology, he’s combined a top with light weight and unique system of bracing, the top of   smallman guitar is braced using a framework composed of balsa wood and carbon fibre,   This technologies, bring to the guitar a new sound (more Louder) and color(tone),in this way the luthier Smallman achievement gives a high step for the guitar. Why this technology made the guitar to louder? Thanks to the very slim top of the guitar, this can be vibrate more than oldest guitars models, but if the top its made without the system of bracing it would break, so, if you lok at the picture you can see the reinforcement of the top to do a his work. of course this techno...
