Experience of writing a blog

  Writing several posts for my blog has been an enriching experience, in the sense of having written little things or experiences that I currently have, since regardless of the language, it has been pleasant. However, on some occasions I found it tedious since I usually prefer to think these things and not necessarily share them. But doing it has made me feel calmer and not be too serious about it. I think the post that I liked the most was talking about my favorite subject (the previous post to this one), because it is one of the things that I currently like the most and that requires a lot of work and energy. The posts that I have liked the least have been where I have to talk about my favorites things, since I really don't like to think like that very much, so they were a bit improvised.

On the other hand, it has been a lot of work, since I have had to learn programming languages, things with which I had little contact since my career is musical, however, the direction that music is taking is interesting when using thi...

An admirable person

Ludwig van Beethoven was a German composer and pianist, considered one of the most important in the history of music. He is one of the members of the First Vienne School together with Joseph Haydn and Wolfgang Mozart, who together are a pillar for future composers. His work has consisted of numerous works for different instruments and ensembles. In addition, he has had a remarkable development throughout his life in terms of trying to take compositional possibilities further. Why I like it has to do with his compositional decisions. The way he sees sounds and arranges them I find satisfactory, in addition, the character he has when writing dynamics I think that speaks a lot about his personality. He is very impulsive and contrasting, which gives life to his music. Regarding the latter, it is noted a difference of his contemporary musicians and their ancestors, (who were not bad at all, quite the contrary, they were geniuses) in Beethoven there is an uprising of paradigms, for exa...
