Post 7: Changes to my study programme

Well... I mentioned in my last comment that many careers need a programme change... Why do i think that? because there are many careers a little bit outdated because the most of teacher don't have a very good connection with the new technologies and new trends. For example, in my faculty the most of teachers just study a very specific kind of music (contemporary - classical music), that is really good, but at the same time is necessary to have others perspectives to study. It is common that teachers think that popular music (rock, blues, jazz and others) is easier than contemporary music and they think that just because they don't know the popular music.

Ok, this post is making me a hater, hahahaha...




Another important problem is that usually the music faculties and conservatories don't have a good economic situation. Today is very difficult to survive as a musician and as a music faculty. The art needs a special financing, it is necessary that the state support that kind of the economic problems. It is the same if we talk about visual art, design, theater, cinema, and others...

It's moment to say something positive: My study programme is not perfect, but it is really good. I remember that years ago i compared some study programmes and this was my favorite. For example, i thought that the Puc's programme was very conservative and short, generally the music careers needs more than 4 years.

I hope you enjoy my dark side, regards!

The electric instruments  My favorite piece of technology is the electric guitar, but specifically my guitar, of course, hahahah. The electric instrument made a revolution in the arts in the 20th century. For example, in the 80's so many musicians could create very different music because the new keyboards and synthesizers. I use my electric guitar every single day. I remember when my parents gave it to me in the beach for my birthday, that day i was all day in my room, i couldn't go to the sea because that guitar made fall in love. The electric guitar can make a lot of different sound, you can change the volume, gain, bass, middle, high of the sound. Also you can use some effects with the amplifier, like distortion, chorus, flanger, wah wah and others. In my opinion, today so many people are using more some synthesizers than the electric guitar for that kind of effects, but the guitar was the "big papa" in the 20th century.

 The fugue The fugue is a method of composition from the baroque period. This style of composition was very used by Bach, even, we can say that he is the best composer using the fugue. Some composers in the history have changed the rules of fugue like Alberto Ginastera, Astor Piazzolla, and others latin american composers. One day my teacher said me "the fugue is the harder test for a composer". In my opinion he is right and at the same time it is very relative. I choose this topic because i am always trying to compose a fugue, sometimes i try to make an traditional fugue but is very useful to study some modern fugues. This method is really important to me because with this technique you can make a big song just using a small material like a seed. This is a fugue analysis. If you are interested about it, i recommend you to listen "the art of fugue", "fuga con pajarillo", "Misterio y fuga" and "Fantasia and fugue in C minor". Enjoy it!
