Hello friends of hive, I hope you are feeling well. Today I want to share with you all my experience during these days of flexible week because fortunately I have had enough musical work. First of all this blog will be something different because the musical work I did was only of the vallenato genre, so it was something totally new for me that also happened in a very short time, so without more to say, let's start!
Para comenzar toda esta experiencia se dio gracias a la grabación de un concierto virtual que se esta llevando a cabo en la cuidad de San Cristóbal, todo esto con motivo de realizar una producción única donde se resalte el talento regional en el genero del vallenato. Cabe destacar que por vivir cerca de la frontera el vallenato se escucha mucho en nuestra querida ciudad, por lo que es normal que hayan muchos fanáticos dispuestos a disfrutar de un concierto en vivo con el famoso acordeón, sin embargo, por el tema del confinamiento que aun se mantiene solo ha sido posible los eventos musicales de tipo virtual donde se respetan todas las normas de bio seguridad.
To begin with, this whole experience was made possible thanks to the recording of a virtual concert that is taking place in the city of San Cristobal, all this in order to make a unique production that highlights the regional talent in the vallenato genre. It should be noted that living near the border vallenato is heard a lot in our beloved city, so it is normal that there are many fans willing to enjoy a live concert with the famous accordion, however, due to the issue of confinement that is still maintained has only been possible virtual musical events where all the rules of bio security are respected.
El concierto lleva por nombre explosión vallenata y justo ayer se realizo la grabación de la producción. En mi caso participe con la agrupación "Son Vallenato" y además de nosotros había al rededor de cinco agrupaciones mas. Para cumplir las normas a cabalidad se convocaron a los grupos en horarios específicos para no coincidir y evitar aglomeraciones, por lo que personalmente tuve que estar lista y arreglada a las 11:30 pm de la noche, grabando exactamente a las 3:00 am. Cuando llegamos al sitio tenía algo de miedo, por esto, aproveche algunos momentos para repasar cada tema que iba a cantar y asi terminar de pulir ciertos detalles de nerviosismo. Luego de esto, procedimos a posicionarnos en la tarima, el cual estuvo ubicada en un galpón grande por tanto, se respeto la distancia de cada participante.
The concert is called explosion vallenata and just yesterday the recording of the production took place. In my case I participated with the group "Son Vallenato" and besides us there were about five other groups. In order to comply with the rules, the groups were summoned at specific times so as not to coincide and avoid crowds, so I personally had to be ready and arranged at 11:30 pm at night, recording at exactly 3:00 am. When we arrived at the site I was a little scared, so I took some moments to review each song I was going to sing and polish certain details of nervousness. After this, we proceeded to position ourselves on the stage, which was located in a large shed, so the distance of each participant was respected.
Después de la prueba de sonido dimos comienzo a nuestra intervención ejecutando doce temas tipo mix, esto quiere decir que no se tocaron completas sino la primera parte de cada uno. Personalmente cante una hoja en blanco en duo con mi compañero de voz Alberth, sigo esperando, mi diosa humana, la última vez y te pierdo y te pienso. Es importante saber que estos temas son originalmente cantados por voces masculinas sin embargo, para realizar algo distinto se dispuso que la mayoría de estos temas fuese cantando por voz femenina (yo).
After the soundcheck we started our intervention performing twelve songs as a mix, this means that we did not play the complete songs but the first part of each one. Personally I sang a blank sheet in duet with my voice partner Alberth, I'm still waiting, my human goddess, the last time and I lose you and I think of you. It is important to know that these songs are originally sung by male voices, however, to do something different it was decided that most of these songs were sung by a female voice (me).
Finalmente terminamos la grabación a las 3:30 pm ya que solo disponíamos de 25 minutos para realizar el video, por tanto, todas las canciones se realizaron una tras de otra y solamente hubo dos intervenciones para nombrar algunos patrocinantes y saludos especiales. Personalmente me gusto mucho la experiencia ya que casi nunca canto este genero musical, permitiéndome ampliar mi estilo vocal, mi rango y adicionar nuevos elementos decorativos a mi voz. Gracias a lo que pude investigar y escuchar estos dias practicando mis temas pude observar que los cantantes de vallenato hombres y mujeres tienen una excelente técnica vocal y gran capacidad para interpretar temas de todo tipo, por lo que personalmente respeto mucho aquellas personas que se dedican a ejecutar este genero musical.
We finally finished the recording at 3:30 pm as we only had 25 minutes to make the video, therefore, all the songs were performed one after the other and there were only two interventions to name some sponsors and special greetings. I personally really enjoyed the experience as I almost never sing this genre of music, allowing me to expand my vocal style, my range and add new decorative elements to my voice. Thanks to what I was able to research and listen to these days practicing my songs I was able to verify that vallenato singers, both men and women, have an excellent vocal technique and great ability to interpret songs of all kinds, so I personally respect very much the people who are dedicated to interpret this musical genre.
El concierto se estrenara el 25 de abril y será totalmente gratis para todos aquellos amantes del vallenato, en forma general se contara con un repertorio variado con las composiciones mas exitosas del genero y por supuesto que mi comunidad de hive será de las primeras en verlo completo, asi que bueno, espero que les haya gustado esta pequeña introducción a un gran proyecto que se viene preparando desde hace tiempo para transmitir y entretener un poco al público gustoso que esta cuidándose en casa. Cuidense mucho y los invito a estar super pendientes de este gran concierto vallenato que estoy segura les gustara muchísimo. Nos vemos en una próxima oportunidad y recuerden escuchar buena música.
The concert will be released on April 25 and will be totally free for all those vallenato lovers, in general there will be a varied repertoire with the most successful compositions of the genre and of course my hive community will be among the first to see it complete, so well, I hope you liked this little introduction to a great project that has been preparing for some time to transmit and entertain the public a little tasteful that is taking care at home. Take care of yourselves and I invite you to stay tuned for this great vallenato concert that I am sure you will like very much. See you next time and remember to listen to good music. .
