My favorite website related with my especific carrer is '' www. teoria.com  ''. This website has four different sections. The first is a basic music theory tutorials, you can learn how to read music, intervals, scales, chords, harmonic funtions and different musical forms. The second section contain exercises of ear training and music theory, like intervals (melodic and harmonic ; close and open), chords (triads, chord inversion, seventh chords, extended chords and harmonic progressions) and rythmic and melodic dictation (all exercises have differents difficulty).

The last section is very interesting because you can find a lot of analysis and essay about music on it. For be honest, in general the website is very basic (it necessary consider that it is a free website). However, teoria.com can be a big help to any music student b

I think that it is difficult for musicians chose only one ''favorite music'', because always we can discover new interesting things in all music. However, I believe that I have musical preference for two especific things: jazz and modal harmony (this is a particular type of harmony when ''color'' of sound is more important than functional and tonal relationship. It was use in modern music like french impressionists: Debussy, Satie, Ravel, etc). Maybe a good example that mix modal harmony with jazz could be the album Kind of Blue (Miles Davis). I was sixteen years old the first time that I heard Kind of Blue. In this moment I considered it boring, because I didn't understand jazz languaje and neither knew about harmony. But, thanks to my instrument teacher, I began approach and value this music... today, I love it. At this year, I am studying and playing in a workshop about this album (the first of june I will playing this music in ''

This picture shows the time when I could take a class with my favorite bass player. He is Andrés Rotmistrovsky, he developed the ''chordmelody'' in electric bass (chordmelody is a arrangement technique to soloist instrument when the performer plays chords and melody at the same time). Last year (2018), my family (my mom and my aunt) and I traveled to Buenos Aires (Argentina). It was my first time in this city. I visited a lot of wonderful places, it was very funny, but the best situation for me was when I found out that Andrés was doing particular class in Buenos Aires. I felt very fortunate because Andrés lived in New York at this moment and for coincidence he traveled to Argentina. I sent a email and we coordinated the class. This class was amazing for me, I learned a lot of important concepts to create a arrangemet for electric bass. As well as, it was an awesome experience that motivated me a lot.

During the course of my life I had have only one pet, my dog and my best friend: Lucas. When I was a child I wanted a dog, this was my dream. I know Lucas since fifteen years ago, he is like my brother . I live with Lucas for five years in Santiago. I spent a lot of time in play with him, but my apartment is small for a dog and when I went to school he was alone. Also, when I was nine years old the community of my building put a lot of troubles to had pets. For this reason with my mom decided moved Lucas to the house of my grandparents in Temuco. It was very difficult for me, but I understood that this was better for Lucas because he wouldn't be alone for a long time. Well as well, my grandparents love to Lucas. Today Lucas is fine. He is fifteen years old, anyway, He is my baby. I travel frequently to meet with my grandmother and with Lucas. He is Lucas

When I was a child I wanted be a musician because my cousin begun his music studies at ‘’Universidad de Chile’’. I was very fortunate because always my family supported me with this decision. When I studied my last year at the high school I considered study history. I loved music and history, but and I didn’t like the idea of being a school teacher. I thought that if studied music, I could work in other thinks like creating my music proyect and doing class, but at university. As well as, I knew musicology and believed that in this discipline I could work with music and history at the same time. For this reason I chose my mayor, ‘’Teoría de la Música’’.   The last year, in my first semester in the university, my opinion was changed. I had a musicology course and didn’t like it. I consider very interesting musicology, but I wouldn’t be a teacher of this. However, I love art investigation through practice music (it’s different with musicology) I has been a been a good expe
