"CHANGES TO MY STUDY PROGRAMME"

My university career (Musical composition) changed over time. We actually underwent a change in the curriculum (where all the subjects are) where my generation was the first to try the change (kind of like white lab rats hahaha just kidding). This change happened in the middle of the 7 years of the career.

The subjects are Harmony, Counterpoint, Sol-fa ("solfeggio") or Voice Practice, basic and superior, Organology, Instrumentation, Orchestration and Analysis, to name a few. In the new curriculum mesh, the career was divided into 3 specialties, which are ensemble conducting, electroacoustic music and interdisciplinary.

If I wanted to correct something in my career, I would not lean towards mesh but rather towards infrastructures of the faculty of arts. The precariousness that exists in the faculty is very notorious and evident, where the lack of electronic inputs, such as decent sound equipment or “datas”, are quite present and many times made our learning more complex and it became costly to review material, listen works, and things like that.

It may sound somewhat utopian, but I would like that in implementation the prestigious university of Chile and all its campuses are on par and balanced (since the imbalance between campuses is too noticeable) as the importance of any type of trades ... also artistic ones.

In general I am quite satisfied with the teaching and methodology of the university professors. I think there is an urgent need for changes in the infrastructure.


Greetings.

New Leisure Activities During Pandemic

If I am honest with you (maybe because of my career or my musical "profession") I am a lazy boy talking about physical activities ... On the other hand, I have a large part of my time occupied with several classes a week and other musical activities… but all at home! The last time I had several physical complaints, and that scares me because I am a young man (I am only 24 years old!) ... I felt so tired, muscle pain, etc. (I am sure that this is because online classes, spend many hours in front of the computer, the quarantine, and at first, the fear of leaving the house, etc. anyway, reasons why not leave home). I decided to start with an exercise routine (hopefully the most number of days at week), but is nothing new for me, because this routine contemplate cycling routes, muscle exercise and stuff like that, and all this practices I have done them before… so, the difference is that this time the pandemic was the motivation and exercise a necessity of my body… so, than...

  Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Hi everyone! Today I’m going to talk you a little bit about beautiful Amsterdam, in The Netherlands. I would love to visit this particular place, first of all for its famous and important conservatory. I'm a kind of  nerd, and after my 7-year career (and my current last semester!) I would love to continue my musical studies at that conservatory, because a particular teacher with whom I would like to study teaches there. On the other hand, I would love to visit some interesting places, like the Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh museum, or listen something in Bimhuis (a kind of Jazz and improvised music concert hall, because I love and play Jazz too.) And the last and not least for that!!! I've read about the beer culture (a beer lover too haha) and, not as important in the matter as its Belgian neighbors, on south, Amsterdam and The Netherlands in general, has a very rich and interesting beer culture ... and that interests me a lot jijiji. I hope we ca...

Four-Legged friend

In my entire life I have had several animals. Being absolutely honest, I forgot some names because at that time maybe I was too young. Despite this, I would like to talk about my two current pets, who have otherwise been with me for many years. They are both dogs, and they are very different from each other. The first one was adopted from a family that could not take care of her and her eight sisters. Her name is Estrella and she’s 15 years old… Pretty old, but very active and in my opinion with several more years to go. She is very calm in her daily life, she is generally rolling around and sleeping peacefully ... she is quite blind and deaf, but that does not take away her spirits and the desire to play.  The second is called Luna and she is much younger than the first. She is 7 years old and her arrival was rather anecdotal. One day in July 7 years ago, someone tried to bring her into our house as it was very cold. Just at that moment my brother and my mother arrived by car, and...
