Musica

Manel — Sun, 14 Jun 2009 21:25:53 +0000

He descubierto que la música sirve para muchas cosas, pero sobre todo para unir a las personas (a las que nos gusta).

Sobre todo las músicas con ritmo ayudan a crear sinergias entre las personas que la escuchan, especialmente si el entorno les permite moverse a su ritmo: bailar.

La salsa (en todas sus variantes), el Swing (o Indi), el tango, etc. nos ayudan a rejuvenecer el espíritu y el cuerpo.

Los cuerpos antiguos no bailan.

Estoy descubriendo lugares de Barcelona en los que escuchar buena música, hecha por músicos de aquí, de los que la SGAE no alimenta con el dinero que nos roba cada vez que compramos un dispositivo de almacenamiento o reproducción digital: el Hotel Havana los sábados, las orquestas de jazz los domingos por la tarde (Apolo, can Humet en el Masnou), el Savoy los viernes (en realidad aún no lo he descubierto, solo me lo han recomendado), los jueves en el “Bel luna” (Rbla Catalunya entre Gran Via y Pl Catalunya), el bar del Raval, junto a la pl. St. Agustí vell, los viernes por la noche (la jam session más auténtica que he visto).

Ver a alguien disfrutar tocando la música es una experiencia enerjizante.

Aprendre ensenyant

Manel — Mon, 04 May 2009 16:13:07 +0000

Ja sabia que la millor manera d’aprendre quelcom és preparar-me per ensenyar-ho, però creia que com més en saben les persones a les que ensenyes, més n’aprens.

Ahir vaig descobrir que també pots aprendre molt ensenyant a qui no en sap.

De fet pot ser el que aprens depèn del que aprèn l’altre(s). Al menys, com més n’aprèn més satisfacció proporciona.
