Post 5: My future job.

 Hi everyone,

The job that I would really like to have is definitely working in big theaters, singing as a solist, doing roles, being able to perform all that beautiful music that I love, definitely NOT in an office, I want to travel a lot if it is possible, and get to know other different cultures, especially Europe, because almost every opera composer is from there, so that would be my number one continent, and when I get old I imagine myself teaching all the things that I learned through the years, and I know that, that is probably far away, but I'm already in 4th year so, I just hope it happens someday.

I think my biggest goal is  to perform a role in a theater, I don't really need anything else.

Post 4: A person I would like to meet

 Hi everyone,

Today I'll tell you about Lisette Oropesa, who is an opera singer from the US, the reason I would really like to meet her is because she had sung some of the greatest roles for soprano, such as Gilda, Lucia di Lammermoor, Violetta Valery, and many others in some of the greatest opera houses. 

I think she is going to be one of the best opera singers of the century for sure, and besides she seems to be a really nice person, she's  always doing these videos to help other singers so they can understand the technique, the music and the roles, also she speaks 4 languages! I'm a fan!, totally fan!, if someday I get to have a master class or something with her I would be really happy, because you can tell that she really wants you to learn, so I hope that day comes eventually, but for now I'll be content just  by listening to her. 

There is another person that I'd love to meet, Sabine Devieilhe, a French opera singer, this woman has the voice of an angel, it's amazing, she does the light roles, really high and agile. They are definitely the best combo, and she seems really friendly as well. These two amazing women are my inspiration. 


Thanks for reading!

Post 3: A day to remember

Hi everyone, 

Today I'll tell you about my day to remember, it was about 6 years ago, I was part of the chorus of my school and we had this big competition at the Municipal Theater of Santiago, where different schools from all over the country went to participate, the theater was full of people, the students were on the stalls and the boxes, and the parents were on the balcony. We get there on a bus early in the morning and we saw a lot of other choruses. In the intermission one of my friends said that it was my birthday, which was true, but I didn't care because that day wasn't just for me, it was for all of us. Well, long story short, they started singing for me, THE WHOLE THEATER!! at least 500 voices singing happy birthday to me, and I was in the middle of the stalls, it was beautiful, I still remember the sound, because they did it on tone, with harmony and everything. Besides, that day we won the first place in the competition, so it is definitely a day to remember.

Thank you for reading!

Post 2: The best concert.

Hi everyone,

In my case it wasn't a concert, it was a performance of "La Bohéme" at the Municipal Teather of Santiago in 2016. I remember I went with one of my best friends, Namy, and also that, when we left it was late at night so there was almost no one on the street, and so we star singing like they did in the opera all over the center of Santiago, imitating their voices like two crazy people, it was super fun. 
But it's not only for that, that  it was special, because until that moment I didn't knew what I want it to do with my life. I always liked to sing but neves actually consider to live for that, but when i saw the stage, the costume, the theather, and heard the music I felt in love with it, and knew that I want it to be one of them some day, that's why I'm studying this career. So it was a super fun night, and also lead me to this moment, that's why this is a performance that I'll never forget.

Unfortunately I don't have any pictures of that day, but I found one online:

Post 1: A country I would like to visit.

 Hi everyone: 

I would like to tell you about the country that I want to visit, Austria. Why this country? Although is a very small country, his culture in classical music, and especially opera (wich is what i'm studying, and what a would like to keep studying there), it's amazing. Salzburg it would be probably the first city that I'll visit, not only because is the city of Mozart, and many other incredible composers, but also they have one of the most important festivals, wich is about music and drama, the "Salzburger Festspiele" (Salzburg Festival), where I would really like to participate if a got the chance. 





"Salzburg Festival"



Next would be Vienna, the capital, where is the "Vienna State Ópera House", one of the most important ópera houses of the world, and of course, if I get to visit Vienna I would go to see an ópera there, but some day also i would love to sing there, be able to work in that magnificent theater. Live in Austria.




"Vienna State Opera House"










Of course it's not only for the music that i would visit Austria, i found the landscape, the nature, the architecture, the language, everything really beatiful. I think is a country that deserves to be visit. Go see this lake by day, and then, go to the theater by night. What better combination? 


I hope you get to visit your dream country some day too,
Thanks for reading.
