my pets :)

When I was a child, I had two pets. One of them was a dog, Severino. When I met him, he was very old, I think 7 years old. I grew up with him, and I have a good memories for this time... I remember that when I ate ice-cream or something else, I got him to eat to, or when I gave food to him (dog food) I ate too :). Besides Severino was a quiet dog. He had never fought with cats or another animals, in fact the cats slept on him while he slept too! that's is very "curious" for a dog... And when he died, (because he was very old and sick) it was sad for me...

After, I had another pet. It was a cat, Matias. He was my brother's pet. I didn't like really cats, then for this reason I didn't play with him... I remember when he slept on my bed, I took him out it, because I'm allergic to cat hair. I hated it, because I couldn't sleep good, but Matias could sleep excellent! maybe because my bed was very comfortable... well, he left my house after 3 years to living with us. I think he left us because we weren't the all day in at home, and the animals need be in contact with others, and he was always into the house, then when we were at home, we left him to be in the yard. Maybe he had taken this oportunity to go back... My brother was very sad, because he never came back...

My favorite piece of technology

Hello again :)

Today, I will tell you about my favorite gadget (or better my favorites gadgets) because they are the electric instruments :)

                                                 


I have a keyboard (or synthetizer), and I got it when I was a child, because I wanted play piano, but a piano is more expensive as a keyboard... for this reason I got it :)... I found there instrument very interesting and funny, because the instrument have options to change the sound, then you can do more sounds,  most differents as the normal sound of a piano. For example, when you connect the keyboard with a computer, you could get another sound, and they could be very interesting for you... always when I want make strange sounds, I play keyboard to have fun :)
I like there instruments, because you can do that with all electric instruments, and I find it fantastic, because normally you can make some sounds only with the instrument's posibilities give you. For example, with a electric cello or violin, , for example, connecting a "guitar pedal board", you can make strange sounds, they aren't normally "typical" of the instruments.
Without there instruments, maybe the rock or pop couldn't have exist, because the electric instruments are very important to make this music, and maybe, the life would be boring...

Expectations for a new semester

This semester will be very hard for my, because I have taken ten subjects and I will begin to working in a school in May (specifically to teaching cello and music-theory). Even so, I have a big expectation for this term: playing oboe :) I love this instrument and I practice every day, because in this moment I have the time for that, but I'm not sure if I will have it... About the subjects, I have piano lessons and "notes reading" (it's a playing notes for choir, orchestra or ensamble in the piano). There two subjects I find very interesting, because I learn more about harmony and orchestration (although I have more to do, when I play piano I forgot all and I feel me very good, it's very comfortable for me).

I conduct a ensamble, and I have a project with it: that's is a playing compositions for students of composition for the arts faculty in a concert in October (I hope that). This project I find very important for the career, because the students have a few chances to hear or listen their music. I hope that the concert would be spectacular!

Besides I play cello in a little orchestra to relax me :) because I play cello for a 9 years I think, and I find that funny, because the people for the orchestra are likeable, and in this orchestra it's not very important if you can playing the instrument good or not very good, because we do that only to enjoy the music :)

I hope this year I could become good at playing oboe and piano and about my project with the ensamble  I hope would be it special for the composers, they could perform a work with us...

Hello!!! :)

Hello :)

I'm Sebastian and I was born in Viña del Mar, in 1993,but I didn't lived in this city; I spend my childhood living in La Ligua with my parents. I studied the elementary and secondary school in La Ligua, when I lived with my mom, my sister, and my brother still, but I made a student exchange in Germany wehn I was 16 years old (it was for a one year). And wehn I came back from Germany, I moved to live with my father trought in La Ligua (near of my mom's house).

After the school, I started studying degree in Composition in the Universidad de Chile, in Santiago. For this reason I came to Santiago to live, alone... In the future I want studying a master in composition in Germany, particulary in Leipzig with Claus Mahnkopf, because I find his work very interesting, he is a good composer, and his musical esthetic I find enought "similar" with waht I try searching for a musical lenguage.

Apart from studying composition, I love playing cello. I play in a little orchestra in Santiago at Saturdays. It's very funny, because for almost everybody in the orchestra it's a hobby. We want only playing music for ourselves, for ours spirits :)!!! When you want comming to this orchestra, you must be enthusiastic and want make music only because you want do that :)...
