Hello. Today I want to tell you about an old love (or eternal love): the guitar. Well, before, I used to play guitar very much, almost all afternoons. But something happens. I don’t know if the times are, or if is that now I have other hobbies and a lot of more occupations, but now I don’t play it very much, no like before.
I never liked to play in front a lot of people, I used to play alone, because was for me something very personal, and is embarrassed for me that other listen to me. But I really love play any kind of music or whit any instrument between intimae friends, in this situation we can get free and to improvise. The last term, when we were in “paro” I went to free class in Balmaceda 1215 , where we learnt to write and play popular music. We learned the forms of write popular poetry: in tenth and quartet, and all their different modes. It was very exciting to know the structure that used Violeta Parra, Pezoa Veliz and other Chileans popular poets to wrote. It is part of a beautiful tradition that I am very happy to learn. We learned too to play this poetry forms in guitar, whit their rhythms, melodies and intonations. Well I don’t think that I leave guitar forever, maybe when we rediscover us , I will feel that I always love it and this times are only a little recess.
I find your post really nice. I wish you could find some time to practice, maybe will relax you from all the study wehave now.

I know to play the guitar too, but I started in October and like you, the occupations don't let me practice. I play and sing music by The Beatles with my sister. I hope someday that you are a master in guitar.
ReplyDeleteI don`t know play the guitar :( I know to play the keyboard , but I try to learn how play the guitar twice and it was really terrible. But I think is a very useful instrument for relax.
ReplyDeleteWhen you learn the Bob Dylan song that I suggested? Maybe you could wait that I learn to play the harmonica and we can do a duet.
ReplyDeleteP.S: Sit and wait.
