English Language Challenges

Hello classmates and teacher... This is the final blog, a relief for various of us!

In this chance we have to write about our experience with the English as subject in class and in life... Well, in first I must say, that I don't like very much the English... When I was in the school I loved it, but now is a little boring for me... I think as all, is a very useful tool for many things, and is like a requirement in very much fields, as for example, work opportunities, studies, texts, get information of a particular topic, etc.

I don't like very much the schedule, but is the more practical for me, talking about the options that we had. In the case of the blogspot's  work, it was nice... In this level was more free the election of the topics so it was more entertainment. I think is relaxing write in English, because you have the chance of "think in English", you can do it with more time to search to vocabulary and other things.

In the English courses of the university I don't learned the language as I would, but this used for remember the contents that I learned in the school and for practice the conversation in English, to be a little more sure in the thing that I know.

At the present, in my daily life I don't use very much the language, I think... Maybe when I watch movies, or listen music... Or when I have to read something in English... But that don't happened very much! hahaha

 

Well... dears... I hope you have a nice week...

 

See you in the next class!

Improvisation for sings

In Chile there are two popular bands of music who experiment with Rhythm for Sings (or two more well-know) Who they are? what is the Rhythm for Sings? That we want to see here briefly...

La Molestar Orquesta and Avalancha are two musical assemble who compose in real time with a language of sings, composed for a lot of differents sings with body, hands and fingers.

As the case of Avalancha this is a essamble of percussion, they are ten musicians and born on 2012.In Avachancha we listen the rhythms of the bass drumm, drumms, bongo,djembe, etc. In this video you can see in spanish a little of the functioning of their work:

La Molestar Orquesta born on 2008, when Antonio San Martín (the director of the orchestra and Avalancha too) study in Argentina Improvisation for sings, and after  came to Chile and convened musicians to make this project. In La Molestar the use of browstrings, the winds, percussions and voices make this espectacular mixture of sounds with the direction of San Martín:

They are constantly making workshop and concerts of improvisation for sings in Santiago... In Galpón Victor Jara and other places... In don't know the case of the rest of the country but, I read that they made a workshop in the branch of Balmaceda Arte Joven in Concepción...

See you in the next class on the hottest wednesday afternoon

Have a nice weekend... Get fun and high!

Good Bye.

This is ending...

This year went a year full of emotions, learning process, decisions and maturing. Yes, I know, very cliché.

 

Talking about the good things I can sayd that I discover a new language for me and I make use of this on daily... This years I learned play guitar and now I'm in process to buy a keyboard and take classes with a friend who is musician of the Umce. I'm trying to learn too violin but, is very frustrating, and I avoid it because is very very difficult! For that reason I don't have learned nothing until...

 

For other way I'm in classes of vocal technique since one month, with an excellent and lovely teacher.

 

If you ask me for complicated situations... I think I would sayd that the music win to the visual arts... So in the university the things are not very well... I think in one moment on study anthropology, but I'm not very sure that is my real vocation... So I don't know... I'm trying to take the things with tranquility for now.

 

In the case of my achievements, the things that are in process and my proyects, they are very bound with the I mention in first. Find a language in that you feel comfortable, happy and calm is indescribable... And the only that you want is continue working on this.

 

And finaly... I think I dont't have nothing more to highlight for now, this is only learn and check... attempt and mistake... proyects and dreams...

 

I don't know... I hope that this weeks happend very fast!! I don't have nothing more to say...

 

See you soon.

In this post we have to comment a little of our commitment and opinion about the enviroment...

Hello all!

We don't have to forget that she's got a band, "Fauna" with a greats musicians who performs and complement the melodies of her accordion and voice on her songs.

Pascuala has born on 1985 in Valparaíso.She studied on the Musical Institute of the Catholic University of Valparaíso, here she made her first compositions.

Well, in the case of her personal proyect as Pascuala Ilabaca, she have three musical productions: in first "Pascuala canta a Violeta" with covers of Violeta Parra's songs; after that "Diablo Rojo Diablo Verde" with her own compositions, whitch address about quotidian topics, honour to Mapuche culture and ours roots. And more recent "Busco Paraíso", the album in she tried to show the work and the leasson of her journey to India, the south of Chile and different places.

In the present she is part of Samadi, desides her personal work on Pascuala Ilabaca and Fauna. Samadi is an interesant group of ethnic music,they work investigating the native music of differents places in the world, they collect it and play it.

Cheap Digressions

The human been is in constantly change...Is something difficult to accept for some of us... That's my case. Ortega y Gasset said that we always look for our well-being, and that is what different us from the rest of the animals. The needs changes depending of the culture, age, geographic ubication, etc.

 

The needs and proyections in life (for someones what we are) changes depending of your psychological state, and the last thing is obviosly vinculated with your circunstances. If your reality is not according to with your expectations constantly we have a very big problem in many cases. If you don't know how deal with it, you can be paralized for a long time...

 

Noboby teach you to understand and accept the cycles of life, nobody teach you to incorporate it into yourself and live in peace with them, neither enjoy it. The society is constantly judging and you are doing almost  the same thing... I really don't know if I have a point, I really don't know if this would be valid for me when I arrive to my home, and is probably that this maybe be just... words and cheap digressions.

 

I would be how that people that are like just one line in all theirs lifes in sometimes... Maybe this would be booring, make just one kind of things in all life, but looks peaceable... I don't know, this are just prejudices.

 

This topic is infinite... But I have to finish my blog, there's a little time to do it and change of mind.

 

See you later!
