Best Friends

I don`t have many friends, but the friends that I have are very good. I can say I have three good friends. One of they I met in the school. He' Alonso. We were in the same class since 1º basico until 4º medio, and now we meet us often, because he and I are studying in Santiago. When we meet us, we talk about the things the "stupid" things what we did when we were young. Maybe because we enjoyed do that... He isn't very crazy, but when we were together, we do somethings a little crazy xD.
For four years ago, I think, I knew Eduardo. We met us in a party. Something that caught my attention was that we didn't talk about interests or alcohol, but we told about books, music and psychology. That was very unusual for me, because until this moment I didn't know someone that is not artist or musician and have common interests with me. After that, we had more contact by facebook, and while we told I noticed that we were very similar in owns personalities. I have good memories with him! Once that we went to a party together, we were not in a "good alcoholic status", and I had the best idea that I would be german for this night. It was very funny because all in the party didn't know me and believed that I was german... Well, we did many things, but I cannot talk about that. It's a promise that we maked. Now we are very good friends and always when I have a problem or something else, I talk with him.
And Pablo. I met Pablo in the university.We started to go to concerts together because we have the same music taste, and after the concerts we went to drink a beer, and then we told about music and about own works (I mean own compositions). Since this moment, we always told about own things, and when we had more trust, we told about other things those were not related with music. We always did the things for the university together and we studied harmony or counterpoint. Now he don't study more music, but he study psychology. I miss him in the university, but we meet us very often and we talk hours and hours about owns things...

A day to remember

A day, that I can remember as if it were yesterday, was when the Chilean Symphonic Orchester played my first work for orchester (the concert was at 16th Januar). This work was a new interpretation of one of the movements of a concert for guitar (it's like a orchester version) . This movement I found very interesting and I liked it too. I had composed relatively fast (so, I needed about tow weeks to compose this).
The first orchester's rehearsal was incredible!  When the music started to sound, I felt butterflies in one's stomach. I had no words to describe the feeling that I felt in this moment... I didn't believe that my music was sounding by a symphonic orchester. It was a "pibe dream", because I think that a lot of young composers would wish to listen a work for orchester.
The concert was other thing. I was very accompanied by my family, my girlfriends and friends, but I was very very nervous (maybe more nervous than the musicians xD). I remember when the music started, I closed my eyes and heard the first note (a unison and the flute took the resonance of this note), it was like to open a window to other world... I cannot describe the feeling, the emotion of this moment... When the music came to the end, I went to the scenary and saw the public in the teather.. I said "wow!" and the aplausses began to sound... it was very exciting for me...
I will never forget this moment... I think it is the most important moment of my short life...

The first concert of my life

Well... I have never been in a concert of popular music (I mean rock, pop, etc.).  Maybe because I listen music of the 70's - 80's (and I don't like really the "tribute bands" because it is not the same)... and maybe because I started very young to play classical music, for this reason I started to hear more Mozart, Bach, Beethoven too and I went often to concerts to listen my favorite composers.
 I was 10 or 11 years old when I went to the first concert of my life in Viña del Mar, in the municipal theater of this city (my uncle was going to play flute in this concert, for this reason I went to Viña with my family). I heard "The Magic Flute" by Mozart (that is one of my favorite pieces by Mozart).It was the best thing that I've never seen and heard!!! It was incredible for me! Listen live the orchester, the singers, all of them... When I listened the first note, it gave me goosebumps!!! the sound of the orchester was very different than listen the same in a CD. After the concert, when I was at home, I listened a CD of "The Magic Flute", and I felt immediately that hear live music is one of the best things in the world haha. Since this moment, I went to concerts very often with my uncle, and today I go often to concerts because I like very much listen live music. It is a unique experience!

A country I would like to visit

I was in Europe for a few years ago, and it was fantastic! the architecture, the landscapes, everythings. But I didn't feel that all was different, or special, or something caught my atention. I think that was so, because in Chile you can find many buildings, those are very similar to the some buildings in Europe. The south of Chile is like a little Germany! hahaha... For this reason, I want  know  something really different with my culture, something "exotic": Indonesia.
Indonesia is, in reality, a group of islands. Each island have differents things, because of that you should travel through the islands in a boat. I think it's like Venice, but bigger xD The religion in this country is the Buddhism. I really like this religion (I don't like say "religion" because I find it is a philosophy of life), how the people express or " pray" them to Buda through their chants (Mantras). I love mantras! In Bali, for example, you can find the "gamelans". That is a orchester with insrtuments very exotic, with special sounds. That's amazing...
And, finally, I like the landscapes of the country. The buildings are unique in the world! It is dificult for me imaginate how people, 2000 or 3000 years ago, could build so bigger structures. I would want to see those...
