The inaugural session was this July 1 atp.m. and was 7:00 led by the Chilean director Sebastián Errázuriz, who will immerse us in “How does a composer think?”, To discover how the raw material of music and concepts works basic for musical appreciation such as: sound parameters, rhythm, height, harmony, among others. On this occasion, Teatro del Lago Ensemble will be in charge of accompanying the experience with live music. 

 

“What do we mean when we talk about the classic? What does a before and after of Beethoven mean? Does the Chilean song have a unique identity? What is music and what emotions does it provoke us ?, are some of the questions that we want to invite you to investigate and reflect on all our attendees, through a course with experts in different periods and musical times “, explains Cecilia Bravo, director of Art & Innovation Teatro del Lago. 

 

The classical music sessions will be in charge of Magdalena Amenábar, José Manuel Izquierdo, Jaime Donoso, Pedro Pablo Prudencio and Gonzalo Saavedra, who will invite us to make a musical journey from the Middle Ages to the Baroque, passing through Bach, Mozart, Haydn, Beethoven , romanticism and post romanticism, until reaching the music of the 20th century. The jazz sessions, by Federico Dannemann, will teach us about the history of this genre and improvisation. Meanwhile, the journalist Marisol García, will tell us about the influence and songwriting present in the Chilean song. The operatic genre could not be left out, so Juan Antonio Muñoz will share his knowledge about the passion present in opera and the voices and characters that best represent it.
