Music for Sunday night #27

I'm sorry, but I can't resist to put that amazing song in Music for Sunday night. I'm really keen on with it. So, tonight we have with us this Mexican girl, (and her brothers...) covering my favourite Adele's song, Rolling in the deep. Very very beautiful voice. Enjoy.

“Music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy.”

Ludwig van Beethoven.

26 Nov. Concert

Today has been a concert day. But not a normal one. I've had to play 2 solos in the same song, although there have been musicians who have played a solo during all the song. Definitively, tonight has been the night for solos.

I'm really thankful to my mates who have encouraged and praised me a lot before and after the solo, my first clarinet solo.

On my hand, I'm very happy thanks to people who have congratulated me and to my performance. I thought I would feel more nervous, but in the end, it wasn't so. I doubt if that's because I studied the sheet thousand times or because of my "positive mind".

Anyway, All has been excellent. Good concert!

Make sense?

I have a desire to write although I feel asleep. People think well although stones continuing without think. English blog, or Spanish? Bright, dark, blue, black? I don't know English language.

I live by impulses which people like you give me, so not only by money... Who are you? Well, In that instant I know that.

Snow doesn't sound good on my clarinet. RHCP would kill me. Have good dreams.

Stanislaw Lem Doodle

Yesterday night, I found in my internet browser a new look in Google's website. According to internet, Stanislaw Lem has been who has designed it. Firstly, it seemed boring. After, I read a newspaper page where it was written that this doodle is one of the most interesting ones. I didn't believe it, so, I looked to the clock, only 10 minutes to 0 hours o'clock, I ran to see it. I had hardly paid attention.

It was a bit strange. Like a mind game, and it was interesting, although it was y black and white, and the design was totally simpleton. That's a snapshot taken just before the restart of the game.

Alfred Doddse borrowed a book from a Cincinnatti library. The book was taken back 145 years after. The library staff was amazed, so they didn't charge him a delay fine because of his honesty. Otherwise, this fine amount had been of 22.264 dollars.

Tonight, The Cranberries will play for us Zombie, a very beautiful song where, in my opinion, there is a very good guitar distortion. Enjoy:

Curiosities #1

A woman, Paulina Bonaparte usually took milk showers. Once, when she travelled, she asked for one of these showers. There was enough milk, but there was no shower, so she ordered to make holes in the roof to pour milk from there.

Countdown

To be more nervous, I've thought about put the banner on the top of the site where you can see the time until the great day. Well, at least, one of the great days, I hope to go a bit further with this after this day. Anyway, I don't know if  it's been a good idea...

Music for Sunday night #25

Tonight, Queen will sing for us two of the most known songs of the rock's history, in a great live concert. Enjoy:

Panorama. Beautiful place

Tonight, I would like to share with you this amazing picture. I don't know where it's been taken but it's incredible, isn't it?

Now, I've remembered, a friend of mine told me about these photos that I love. He told me how difficult is to take them. Once more, it happen that the most difficult and hard to do is the more beautiful to my eyes.

Anyway, let's enjoy the picture. I don't get tired of looking at it.

Reflection about the moment

Maybe, they do it without realise, but they make me be the happiest doing it. Tx.

Tonight, Metallica will guide us by the good way. Enjoy:

Learning curve for the musician

This afternoon, I've realised this. I'm sure, there are quite a lot people who won't agree with me, but that's so from my point of view, at least until now.

In the musician life, there are some differences during the learning process, It isn't always possible to learn by the same way or with the same speed.

The explanation is almost unnecessary: When you start, it's easy to improve, but while your knowledge increase, it's being more difficult to learn the next lesson, to go up another step.

I don't think this is bad, although it'd be better if the progression was regular, simply, it's so.

My new toy

  This is my new toy. My father bought it the other day, I don't know why. For him? I don't think so, he doesn't work a lot of with that. Anyway, I was the happiest geek in the world when I saw it, I knew who would be the main user.  

Now, I will be able to do more and better soldering works.

Pendrive tuning

I have a pendrive which is hung on my keys. This is a good pendrive, it's not old, otherwise you can save almost 8 GB of data in it. But, as I use quite a lot my keys, my device doesn't look like when I bought it. There was some lines and letters painted in it, but until the other day, the decoration can't be seen, it's was almost erased:

It looked very worn out and old. So I decided to design something new and paint it.

First I chose an easy design, but, when I was painting it, I had to use several kinds of paint, when I was working with satin paint I have no problems, but after, I wanted to use a colour only available in metallic paint and I think the way to paint is a bit different with this ones, so I didn't remember this trick and the paint fucked my work...
I got angry, it wasn't the first time it's happened me...

One time, I got over my anger, I had to sand everything and start again. This time I chose a different design, totally different. And after one day and 4 layers of paint, it's ready:

 This is a design totally different to the original, but I like it!
