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...
