Difference Between Playtex Original And Sport

"Skepticism or disbelief? Meeting with disagreements

be that you're so burned by the disappointments of life, but the truth is that when I read the news (and the first impact), the truth is that I was not moved a hair.

The news referring to more or less said the following:
"THE CITY HAS BEEN TRELEW DESIGNATED AS THE NINTH PLACE CORAL WORLD SYMPOSIUM TO BE HELD IN THE YEAR 2011. "

Perhaps some of you, to read such holder (worth a plate Cronica TV as accompanying this post), they'll say" Wow, to the end was really, Somo as best in the world. "
What I thought was" What? ".

We'll see. A symposium of this kind usually involves: * exhibitions
a director known about their experiences.
* theoretical and practical workshops by them.
* opportunity to meet and exchange views.
* concerts by one / s of them, involving Chorus / s driver / s.
All this is very good, no doubt. And it should be added the recognition that this designation means for the city of Trelew, home for several years one of the most respected choral festivals of the world, noted for organizational quality, the competitive level and (say say) transparency in the decisions of its judges, usually comprised of people of unquestionable trajectory. And no less a recognition of Argentina, on the basis of verifiable fact of being at the head of South America at the coral, at least quantitatively (as far as I know, in Brazil there are very few choruses).

So far, so fantastic. But ... I have my doubts. Well, if it would be Johann Tenorio.
Not that I'm against, or that it will boycott the symposium, or anything like it. It's just that I wonder what it's worth all this?

For starters, who will go? Obviously, the usual suspects, people who generally admire and respect, but in some cases, at this stage of the game start to become "figuretis" of choral music. Okay here that lack enough time to 2011, but I would be surprised to learn that in the event included some young directors who are extremely talented, but generally do not appear in these cases.
And the chorus? Will any good? Yeah, right. And fit the same considerations as in the previous section. Perhaps we are fortunate to come either from outside, but I doubt it.

Another thing. Is often mentioned when it comes to economic policies, the "theory of trickle-down", referring to the figure of a glass of water, which when full, overflows, and the remainder, obviously falls down. In this case, what is the spill? Those who can not attend the symposium, "the symposium will receive some benefit, beyond anecdotes to tell us the director upon his return (as long as there have been fortunate to attend)? Obviously I do not mean economic benefits but a real possibility that musical growth.

Some may say "and what happens is that Tenorio is jealous because he will not go." Maybe there's something about that, but in this case, what worries me is that I am not there, but not going to be 99% of the coral community in Argentina. It's a question of working for those who do attend, are really representative of who we are going to look out, as those things that are never reached. And when again, we note that they have grown musically and spiritually through the experience, know and share.

Well, what I know, able to wander just another me, another reason more out of container. But in the end, is covered in the rules of this blog. Anyone who wants to disagree with my dissent, is cordially invited to express it in the comments that I await anxiously.

or forever, lol,

Lots Of Cervical Mucus And No Period



My apologies friends who told me this story, which occurred in yesterday, for not keeping the secret ( I actually asked, so there Tuti). But the fact that I shall relate is worthy of inclusion in an anthology of the great animals of choral music in Argentina. And if you do not know what will happen same, but I broke down with laughter when I was told.
also promise not to give names. Hete

here that during this weekend we were visited by a choir of a neighboring country, I will not name, but many must know what I mean. And was invited to participate in a couple of choral, one on Saturday and another on Sunday (calculated how much the public could have yesterday afternoon at a meeting coral, as they should have checked Rita Stein and Oscar Messiah).

The first sign that the organization was somewhat disorganized, received it on Saturday afternoon, in the form of a press and at that point a little more than late, which announced both games. This provoked and then a couple of complaints on mailing lists devoted to the coral area, for the delay in sending the newsletter. But that was nothing more than the beginning, you see.

I know nothing about how was the meeting on Saturday, but apparently he was pretty good. The problem was at the meeting yesterday, Sunday.
As expected, the public could be enumerated on the fingers of one hand, and would have left little finger. Of course, at the same time, the selection of dance in the warm Basile Maracaibo to the beat of a samba three single notes (thankfully).

At the appointed hour that was to begin the concert, even had not arrived and the organizer and director of the choir both host and guest choir members (who were supposed to be transported by the organizer). Yes had come the director of this choir, which tried to explain this situation in itself inexplicable dwindling audience, with his proverbial sympathy (in the environment is known for its cool) and then try to improvise something with the chorus that had available, which was the host choir, which itself had come but had no director. Then attacked the "Ave Verum" by Mozart, as pa 'do something.
then tried to run another play, but the absence of scores available, and as none of coreutas present the idea had the tone of the work, it became clear that the task was almost impossible. Luckily, one of the duds was coreutas director and in front of the surprised smile of his companions, as could another issue addressed. As told, was the musical moment of the evening.

At that time, as often happens in every encounter coral that price, a cell phone rang. Lo and behold, the caller was none other than the clueless organizer of the meeting, explaining that "as it was getting late," the chorus was not invited to the church that had been happening all this mess, but to a nearby school, and inviting these to go over there. Yes, well understood: the organizer, on their own and without explaining the reasons for their disappearance and guest choir, decided at that time that the meeting should take place elsewhere. Grotesque, to say the least.

Well, the thing just kept in the nearby school. The problem is that apparently the school was quite big, because once the two directors, both choirs and the public were present at the scene, took 20 minutes longer to find each with his choir director, and vice versa.
To all this, half of the host choir had gone to drink mate to your home (something for others to understand at this point), so the director-organizer did what he could with remains of the choir, while his daughter was engaged to destroy the facilities of the auditorium, as is his custom (I know what I mean).

And finally, the guest choir and its director were able to agree on the stage, and provided as I have a very good show, full of warmth and good feeling, something that experienced after the incidents, it more than worthwhile.

My conclusion, to end this post is that I was not too bad!
But hey, that's what friends are going and then counted.
I hope you have fun as much as I

After Brazilian Lazer

Gacetillas per la Domenica

And one day he returned the old Johann, that every week of choral published newsletters, including some not involved in any of their groups ...
And bueh, ever had to happen. I got a couple of notices of meetings to be held this Sunday corals 8 / 7 (both at 17 hours), and I said "Well Johann, it's time to get out of the nap and give the keyboard and mouse."
So I inform both games, in which as I said, do not participate with any of my groups, so it can go with confidence.

Church of Our Lady of Victories, Paraguay 1204, Capital
(Coordination and presentations by Ms. Rita Stein)
* Vocal Group "The Compass XXI", dir. Gabriela works Battipede
French and Italian Renaissance and French works of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
* Collegium Musicum Choir of Buenos Aires, dir. Silvia Perez Monsalve works
English and English Renaissance and twentieth-century English works.
Admission will be free but asks for the donation of a nonperishable food for Caritas.

English Mutual Aid Association, Rivadavia 129 1st floor, Quilmes
Participants:
* Choir Asoc.Española Quilmes Mutual Aid

Dir: José Julián Carnavale
* Adult Choir Gonnet
Dir: José Julián Carnavale
* Volksliedergruppe - Lanus
Dir: Silvia Janschi
* Coral Quimey Varela
Dir: José Luis Cruque
Free admission

see, two proposals rather dissimilar, and quite far apart from each other geographically, so that there are no such conflicts. Choose and go.

See,

Ikusa Otome Suvia Resume

The closure of the tour (for now) I find it very cheerful

course, is that after this concert, do not feel like singing more and keep the memory of something so beautiful just as experienced yesterday at the Cathedral of San Martín, thanks to the lovable invitation of our friend Oscar Messiah.

do not know what I can tell, because the truth is that those things that transcend the musical fact and fill the soul with gratitude for having been there, so well that we have tried.
I think that must have influenced our performance much because of me is feeling, as a member of Vocal grupete New Residence, having given our best show to date. Obviously, I can not be even remotely objective, but still being conscious of having ugly blunders at some time, just feel like I let all of us in this warm setting. And here comes what I can say about our performance, because anything else would say tainted by my own feelings at the moment.

But if you just mentioned "that warm stage", is because despite the cold night, the Chamber Choir Allegro Molto warm altar left us after his performance.

When I notice of this meeting, I threw in passing that "Allegro Molto sounds more and better," I do not know if I was ever as accurate as with the short definition. The CCMA has really shown progress evident in every action of his that I witnessed, and this time was no exception.

The code is simply an excuse, so I will just mention: "Chant des oiseaux" (Jannequin), "Weep o mine eyes" (Bennett), "The Seven Words of Christ on the Cross" (C. Franck) "Cum Sancto Spiritu (Vivaldi)," Hallelujah! " (Handel). All works in the exact cooking point, perhaps with a tiny stain (with which this year come very fussy), which was the diction of the soloists, who at times, and even considering singing in Latin , are not understood much. I say the only blemish, because in pitch, volume and expressiveness, there was nothing, but nothing serious, that reproach.

Then I leave a small sample video, taken with my palm (so do not expect high definition and surround sound Dolby 7.1), and hoping that the controversies generated by this case as in other media corals because of certain recordings "underground" concerts. Not even asked for permission, so I stick to flogged want to strike me.
Enough talk, here is the "Cum Sancto Spiritu" according to the Allegro Molto:


I owe my photos, any time I edit and upload.
EDITION: the truth is that I'm half lazy (which should be an improvement, down full-time bum), so I take that Oscar and I published his own commentary about the meeting, the blog of the Molto Allegro . And because it's full of pictures, instead of rising mine (which are not nearly as nice as him), here I leave a link to the chronic Messiah concert by Oscar . But there are some embarrassing comments and mine, too.

See you at the next post,

Johann
