Hello everyone, in the #Music community. I am pleased to share my interpretation with the trumpet of an extract of "Bohemian Rhapsody", a song from the Queen group composed of Freddie Mercury. The original piece lasts almost 6 minutes, in my case, I only interpret the ballad. I love this piece, the most iconic part I enjoy is the operatic. This song is a rhapsody, it is interesting how Freddie uses this characteristic that dates from romanticism. The lyrics may have several interpretations, which go between an internal struggle, even a perspective on life, final judgment, and death. If you have a different interpretation, share it in your comment. I read a while that had been influenced by composers such as Franz Liszt and Giacomo Puccini. In the context of the song, the word bohemia can mean some creative freedom and not adjusting to the norms imposed by society. As it is a piece without a fixed structure, I consider it a great idea to call it that.

Many times we seek happiness in empty places, or where we believe they can fill our life. We can undertake incalculable trips, and then long for our land, customs, and people. Social networks show perfect lives and an idealized perspective of happiness. Incredibly, these days I get up very early to do a job, and well, I will barely grab the phone, and spend an hour of my time. Subtle, I had lost valuable time, and I had to run to a meeting. At first, it caused me satisfaction, but then it became stress, frustration, and discomfort. At this time we tend to give more priority to objects, lights, and appearance. Happiness is closer than we think, is in our own homes, to be grateful, and in the things that are within our reach.

Muchas veces buscamos la felicidad en lugares vacíos, o donde creemos que pueden llenar nuestra vida. Podemos emprender viajes incalculables, y luego añorar nuestra tierra, costumbres y a las personas. Las redes sociales muestran vidas perfectas, una perspectiva idealizada de la felicidad. Es increíble que en estos días me levante muy temprano para realizar un trabajo, y bueno, apenas agarre el teléfono, me gaste como una hora de mi tiempo. De manera sutil, había perdido un tiempo valioso, y me tocó salir corriendo a una reunión. Al principio me causó satisfacción, pero luego se convirtió en estrés, frustración y molestia. En esta época solemos darles más prioridad a los objetos, a las luces, y a la apariencia. La felicidad está más cerca de lo que pensamos, está en nuestros propios hogares, en ser agradecidos y en las cosas que están a nuestro alcance.
Bohemian Rhapsody
Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landslide, no escape from reality
Open your eyes, look up to the skies and see
I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy
Because I'm easy come, easy go, little high, little low
Any way the wind blows doesn't really matter to me, to me
Mama, just killed a man
Put a gun against his head, pulled my trigger, now he's dead
Mama, life had just begun
But now I've gone and thrown it all away
Mama, ooh, didn't mean to make you cry
If I'm not back again this time tomorrow
Carry on, carry on as if nothing really matters
Too late, my time has come
Sends shivers down my spine, body's aching all the time
Goodbye, everybody, I've got to go
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth
Mama, ooh (Any way the wind blows)
I don't wanna die
I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all
I see a little silhouetto of a man
Scaramouche, Scaramouche, will you do the Fandango?
Thunderbolt and lightning, very, very frightening me
(Galileo) Galileo, (Galileo) Galileo, Galileo Figaro magnifico (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
But I'm just a poor boy, nobody loves me
He's just a poor boy from a poor family
Spare him his life from this monstrosity
Easy come, easy go, will you let me go?
Bismillah, no, we will not let you go
(Let him go) Bismillah, we will not let you go
(Let him go) Bismillah, we will not let you go
(Let me go) Will not let you go
(Let me go) Will not let you go
(Never, never, never, never let me go) Ah
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
(Oh, mamma mia, mamma mia) Mamma mia, let me go
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me, for me, for me
So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye?
So you think you can love me and leave me to die?
Oh, baby, can't do this to me, baby
Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta here
(Ooh)
(Ooh, yeah, ooh, yeah)
Nothing really matters, anyone can see
Nothing really matters
Nothing really matters to me
Any way the wind blows
