    A warm greeting to everyone in this wonderful #Music community. I'm delighted to perform "Shrek Medley" on my trumpet, a musical arrangement that begins with the fantasy opening theme "Fairytale" and ends with the epic theme from "Ride the Dragon." Both themes were composed by Harry Gregson-Williams and John Powell for the soundtrack of the animated film Shrek (2001). Music in film has the power to convey emotions, concepts, and ideas. I love how the first theme is used in the opening scene of the story, and the second in the dragon scene, when Shrek and Donkey are in danger. If you've seen the film, I'm sure you'll remember how it made you feel when you first heard it. I play "Fairytale" in F major, and its melody moves in small medieval twists. "Ride the Dragon" is in the key of C major, and its melody is more dramatic, fragmented, and rhythmic.

    Un cordial saludo para todos en esta bella comunidad de #Music. Tengo el agrado de interpretar con mi trompeta «Shrek Medley», un arreglo musical que comienza con el opening de fantasía “Fairytale” y finaliza con el tema épico de “Ride the Dragon”. Ambos temas compuestos por Harry Gregson‑Williams y John Powell para la banda sonora de la película animada Shrek (2001). La música en el cine tiene el poder de transmitir emociones, conceptos e ideas. Me encanta como el primero se usa para en la escena inicial del cuento, y el segundo en la escena del dragón, cuando Shrek y Burro están en peligro. Si han observado la película, estoy seguro de que recordaran lo que les hizo sentir al escucharla por primera vez. Fairytale la interpreto en F mayor, y su melodía se mueve en pequeños giros medievales. Ride the Dragon está en la tonalidad de C mayor y su melodía es mas dramática, fragmentada y rítmica.

    As human beings, we love fantasy because it helps us escape reality. Sometimes we feel stressed and overwhelmed by routine. That's why we feel the need to rest our minds and connect with a world where anything is possible. Imagining things helps us nurture our creativity. Music is a powerful tool for the imagination. It helps us transport ourselves beyond the everyday. I remember that every time I went to university, I couldn't take off my headphones, and that helped me immerse myself in a world of emotions and fantasies. It was, without a doubt, an escape from routine. I loved listening to all kinds of musical genres, but especially songs that uplifted me and helped me reflect on important issues in my life. I also enjoy watching movies and series that connect me with my childhood and the happiest moments of my life. I hope you enjoy my performance.

    Como seres humanos amamos la fantasía porque nos ayuda a escapar de la realidad. En ocasiones nos sentimos estresados, y ofuscados por la rutina. Es por eso por lo que nos vemos en la necesidad descansar la mente y conectar con un mundo donde todo es posible. Imaginarnos cosas nos ayuda alimentar nuestra creatividad. La música es un instrumento poderoso para la imaginación. Nos ayuda a transportarnos más allá de lo cotidiano. Recuerdo que cada vez que iba a la universidad, no podía dejar mis audífonos y eso me ayudaba a zambullirme en un mundo de emociones, y de fantasías. Era sin duda, un escape de la rutina. Me encantaba escuchar todo tipo de géneros musicales, pero sobre todo canciones que me edificaran y me ayudaran a reflexionar temas importantes en mi vida. Igualmente, me agrada ver películas y series que me conectan con mi niñez y con los momentos mas felices de mi vida. Espero de que disfruten de mi interpretación.

  • Detour Ahead - Herb Ellis, John Frigo & Lou Carter (Cover) by @yisusth

    A warm greeting to everyone in this wonderful #Music community. I'm delighted to perform "Detour Ahead" on my trumpet, a classic jazz song from the 1940s composed by Herb Ellis, John Frigo, and Lou Carter. The lyrics compare a road trip to a romantic relationship. On our journey, we may encounter difficulties, obstacles, and even failure. We may lose a battle, but never the war. The lyrics are very common in post-war American culture. The message of this piece is that it's best to recognize when something is wrong before it's too late. It most likely originated from a period of improvisation while they were playing together in a trio called The Soft Winds. I play this piece in the key of D major, and I love how its melody reflects emotional tension. It has fleeting modulations that reflect the nature of detours on a highway.

    Un cordial saludo para todos en esta bella comunidad de #Music. Tengo el agrado de interpretar con mi trompeta «Detour Ahead», una clásico del Jazz de los años 40 compuesto por Herb Ellis, John Frigo y Lou Carter. La letra de la canción compara un viaje de carretera con una relación amorosa. En nuestro viaje podemos encontrar dificultades, obstáculos, e incluso con el fracaso. Se puede perder una batalla, pero jamás la guerra. La letra es muy común de la cultura estadounidense de postguerra. La reflexión de esta pieza es que es mejor reconocer cuándo algo va mal antes de que sea demasiado tarde. Lo más seguro es que haya surgido de un tiempo de improvisación mientras tocaban juntos en un trío llamado The Soft Winds. Esta pieza la interpreto en la tonalidad de D mayor, y me encanta como su melodía refleja tensión emocional. Tiene unas modulaciones pasajeras que reflejan el carácter de los desvíos en una carretera.

    I recently woke up excited to go to a meeting on a Sunday morning. I stood at the bus stop waiting for public transportation for three hours. Many buses passed, but none were going to my destination. Since the meeting was about to end, I decided against going and took a bus to a different place. Although I hadn't planned to take that bus, it was too easy to get to the unplanned destination. I don't know if not going was the best thing to do. I probably missed something good, or perhaps something bad. Maybe I insisted on going to that place and something unexpected happened. The meeting was very important, and because I wasn't there, many important things weren't done, including recording the event, receiving instruction, and spending time with some people. When we play a musical instrument, the melody doesn't always come out when or how we want. The important thing is to be patient and resilient. Enjoy this beautiful jazz standard!

    Hace poco estaba me levante con mucho entusiasmo para ir a una reunión un domingo por la mañana. Estuve en la parada esperando el transporte publico por 3 horas. Pasaron muchos autobuses, pero ninguno iba a mi destino. Como ya estaba por culminar la reunión desistí de llegar al lugar y entonces tomé un autobús a otro destino. Aunque mi plan no era tomar ese autobús, fue demasiado sencillo llegar al destino no planificado. No se si fue lo mejor, no llegar. Probablemente me perdí de algo bueno, o quizás de algo malo. Puede que haya insistido en ir a ese lugar y fuera ocurrido algo que no esperaba. La reunión era muy importante, y como no estuve presente, se dejaron de hacer muchas cosas importantes, entre las cuales hacer un registro del evento, recibir instrucción y compartir con algunas personas. Cuando tocamos un instrumento musical, no siempre sale melodía cuando o como queremos. Lo importante es tomárselo con paciencia, y resiliencia. Que disfruten de este bonito estándar del Jazz.

    ## [**Detour Ahead**](https://www.songlyrics.com/herb-ellis/detour-ahead-lyrics/)
    Smooth road, clear day
    But why am I the only one
    Travelin' this way
    How starnge the road you love
    Should be so easy
    Can there be a detour ahead
    Wake up, slow down
    Before you crash in that yard
    None of that plown
    You fool, you're headin'
    In the wrong direction
    Can't you see the detour ahead
    The further you travel
    The harder to unraffle
    The way he spins around you
    Turn back while there is time
    Can't you see the danger sign
    Subshoulders surround you
    Smooth road, clear night
    Oh lucky me, that suddenly
    I saw the light
    I'm turniung back away
    From all this trouble
    Smooth road, smooth road
    No detour ahead

  • If We Try - Don McLean (Cover) by @yisusth

    A warm greeting to everyone in this amazing #Music community. I have the pleasure of performing with my trumpet «If We Try», a Folk rock song composed by Don McLean in 1971. The lyrics talk about how love begins, the uncertainty of a relationship, trying something deeper, and enjoying the moment. This piece is in the key of G major, performed on my trumpet in A major. It has a soft melody, with short and repetitive movements that are charming. The harmony combines major and minor chords that reflect hope and doubt. The song has a time signature of 4/4, a moderate tempo, and a regular rhythmic base with simple syncopations. Since Monday, I have had the opportunity to practice it, and the most significant challenge was the fingering when moving from C# to low D, since on the trumpet the first is played with all pistons, and the last with pistons 1 and 3.

    Un cordial saludo para todos en esta increíble comunidad de #Music. Tengo el placer de interpretar con mi trompeta «If We Try», una canción de genero Folk rock compuesta por Don McLean en 1971. La letra habla de como comienza el amor, la incertidumbre de una relación, el intentar algo mas profundo y disfrutar del momento. Esta pieza se encuentra en la tonalidad de G mayor, siendo interpretada en mi trompeta en A mayor. Tiene una melodía suave, con movimientos cortos y repetitivos que es encantadora. La armonía combina acorde mayores y menores que reflejan esperanza y duda. La canción tiene una cifra indicadora de compas de 4/4, un tempo moderado, y una base rítmica regular con sincopas sencillas. Desde el lunes tengo la oportunidad de practicarla, y el reto más relevante fue con la digitación al pasar del grado C# al D grave, ya que en la trompeta se toca el primero con todos los pistones, y el ultimo con los pistones 1 y 3.

    Pain can be seen as something negative, but it is something essential within our earthly life. How could we know the joy of healing and redemption without knowing pain? To know the sweet, many times it is necessary to know the bitter. In my personal life, I have suffered emotional, spiritual, and physical pains. Those sufferings have helped me develop faith, patience, empathy, and strength. I am impressed by people who have never suffered from headaches, or whose pain threshold is minimal. Their trial is also hard. Sometimes I wonder if anyone understands our pains, and then my belief comes to mind that Jesus Christ suffered for my pains and that He, through His own experience, understands our torments. Is it not wonderful to know that music can calm our heart, provide consolation, peace, and healing? That is the miraculous power of music. Enjoy this performance.

    El dolor puede verse como algo negativo, pero es algo esencial dentro de nuestra vida terrenal. Como podríamos conocer el gozo de la sanación, y de la redención sin conocer el dolor. Para conocer lo dulce, muchas veces es necesario conocer lo amargo. En mi vida personal he sufrido dolores emocionales, espirituales y físicos. Esos padecimientos me han ayudado a desarrollar fe, paciencia, empatía y fortaleza. Me impresiona las personas que nunca han sufrido de dolores de cabeza, o que su umbral del dolor es mínimo. Su prueba también es dura. A veces me pregunto si alguien comprende nuestros dolores, y entonces viene a mi mente mi creencia de que Jesucristo sufrió por mis dolores y que el por experiencia propia entiende nuestros tormentos. ¿No es maravilloso saber que la música puede calmar nuestro corazón, brindarnos consuelo, paz y sanación?. Ese es el poder milagroso de la música. Que disfruten de esta interpretación.

    ## [**If We Try**](https://genius.com/Don-mclean-if-we-try-lyrics)
    When I see you on the street, I lose my concentration
    Just the thought that we might meet creates anticipation
    Won't you look my way once before you go?
    And my eyes will say what you oughta know
    Well, I've been thinkin' about you day and night
    And I don't know if it'll work out right
    But somehow, I think that it just might
    If we try
    Faces come and faces go in circular rotation
    But something yearns within to grow beyond infatuation
    Won't you look my way once before you go
    And my eyes will say what you oughta know
    Well, you've got me standin' deaf and blind
    'Cause I see love is just a state of mind
    And who knows what it is that we might find
    If we try?
    You're walkin' a different direction from most people I've met
    You're givin' me signs of affection I don't usually get
    I don't want you to pledge your future
    The future is not yours to give
    Just stand there a little longer
    And let me watch while you live
    'Cause when I see you on the street, I lose my concentration
    And just the thought that we might meet creates anticipation
    Won't you look my way once before you go?
    And my eyes will say what you oughta know
    Well, I've been thinkin' about you day and night
    And I don't know if it'll work out right
    But somehow, I think that it just might
    If we try
    Somehow, I think that it just might
    If we try
    Yes, somehow, I think that it just might
    If we try

    A warm greeting to this wonderful community. In Hive Open Mic #317, we explored the theme: “Celebrating My Mom.” I'm pleased to share my trumpet rendition of “Pussywillows Cattails,” a song that blends genres like soft pop and folk-pop, composed by Gordon Lightfoot. He drew inspiration from his childhood experiences in a natural setting of rivers, fields, and tranquil landscapes. One of my favorite versions is Kenny Rankin's, which incorporates smooth jazz influences. The lyrics are poetic and filled with imagery and feelings such as nature, the passage of time, nostalgia, memories, love, and shared moments. This piece is written in the key of G major, but I play it in A major. The melody is intimate, reflective, and sounds like a memory. The time signature is 3/4, with a slow but steady tempo.

La cifra indicadora de compas de ¾ con un tempo lento pero estable.

    This weekend we celebrate our mothers on their day. Although a single day can't repay all they do for us, it's a way to remember them and ensure they are not forgotten. They are co-creators with God, giving life, teaching, and raising children. I feel great love for my mother; she is always full of heavenly gestures. Without a doubt, a mother's love is the closest thing to a mother's love. My mother is a pillar in our home; she is not only the manager but also the one responsible for raising us with values, faith, and love. Even though we are adults, she continues to be a light in our lives. She is an example of service, sacrifice, and dedication. More than a commercial holiday, it is a day to express gratitude, love, and service. We must also not forget our ancestors and the women who have positively influenced us. I hope you enjoy my interpretation. Blessings to your mothers.

    Este fin de semana celebramos a nuestras madres en su día. Aunque un solo día no podría compensar todo lo que ellas hacen por nosotros, es una manera de hacer memoria de ellas y de que no sean olvidadas. Ellas son cocreadoras con Dios al dar vida, enseñar y formar a los hijos. Siento gran amor por mi madre, ella siempre esta llena de detalles celestiales. Sin duda, el amor de una madre es el mas cercano al amor de una madre. Mi madre es un pilar en el hogar, ella no solo es administradora, también es la encargada de educarnos en valores, fe y amor. Incluso aunque ya somos adultos ella sigue siendo una luz en nuestras vidas. Ella es un ejemplo de servicio, sacrificio y dedicación. Mas que un día comercial es un día para expresar gratitud, amor y servicio. También no debemos olvidar a nuestras antepasadas y a las mujeres que han influido positivamente. Espero disfruten de mi interpretación. Bendiciones a sus madres.

    Pussywillows cattails soft wind and roses
    Rainpools in the woodland water to my knees
    Shivering quivering the warm breath of spring
    Pussywillows cattails soft winds and roses
    Catbirds and cornfields daydreams together
    Riding on the roadside the dust gets in your eyes
    Reveling disheveling the summer night can bring
    Pussywillows cattails soft winds and roses
    Slanted rays and colored days stark blue horizons
    Naked limbs and wheat bins hazy afternoons
    Voicing rejoicing the wine cups to bring
    Pussywillows cattails soft winds and roses
    Hars nights and candlelights wood fires a-blazin
    Soft lips and fingertips resting in my soul
    Treasuring remembering the promise of spring
    Pussywillows cattails soft winds and roses
    And roses
    And the soft winds

  • Somewhere Out There - James Horner (Cover) by @yisusth

    A warm greeting to everyone in this wonderful #Music community. I'm delighted to perform "Somewhere Out There" on my trumpet, a beautiful pop ballad composed in 1986 by James Horner, Barry Mann, and Cynthia Weil for the animated film "An American Tail." The lyrics speak of the hope of reuniting with a loved one, despite the distance. The most famous version, and my personal favorite, is by Linda Ronstadt and James Ingram. As a child, I had the opportunity to see the film and its sequels countless times. This piece is originally written in F major and has an intimate, natural, and expressive melody with expressive leaps and stepwise motion. It has a 4/4 time signature, a slow tempo, and a relaxed rhythm with occasional syncopation. It begins with a gentle dynamic and gradually builds to a jubilant climax, finally closing with a feeling of calm and tranquility.

    With the power outages, I've had to be resilient. There are scheduled 4- to 5-hour cuts every day, and in the meantime, we have to take precautions, like keeping our phones and laptops charged. Charging time allows me to get a lot done, and I've decided to cope with it patiently and without complaining. Complaining only makes things worse, so if it's not in my hands to fix it, what I can do is the best I can and keep moving forward with my personal and professional goals. On social media, I see how some people are taking it with humor, others with anger, and they try to get attention as if they were the only ones experiencing this. What I can say ironically is that, thanks to them, we're reminded of the reality of our challenges. I hope you enjoy my interpretation. Blessings.

    Con los problemas del servicio eléctrico ha tocado ser resiliente. Diariamente hay cortes programados de 4 a 5 horas, y mientras tanto, nos toca tomar sus previsiones como por ejemplo mantener el teléfono y la laptop cargada. Con el tiempo de carga se pueden adelantar muchas cosas y he tomado la decisión de sobrellevarlo con paciencia y sin quejarme. Las quejas lo que hacen es empeorar la condición, así que si no esta en mis manos poder resolverlo. Lo que si esta en mis manos, es hacer lo mejor que puedo y seguir avanzando en mis metas personales y profesionales. Por las redes sociales veo como las personas se lo toman con humor, otros se los toman con enojo, y tratan de llamar la atención como que si ellos fueran los únicos que estuvieran viviendo la situación. Lo que si puedo decir irónicamente es que, gracias a ellos, nos recuerdan la realidad de nuestros desafíos. Espero disfruten de mi interpretación. Bendiciones.

    ## [**Somewhere Out There**](https://genius.com/Linda-ronstadt-and-james-ingram-somewhere-out-there-lyrics)
    Somewhere out there
    Beneath the pale moonlight
    Someone's thinking of me
    And loving me tonight
    Somewhere out there
    Someone's saying a prayer
    That we'll find one another
    In that big somewhere out there
    And even though I know how very far apart we are
    It helps to think we might be wishing on the same bright star
    And when the night wind starts to sing a lonesome lullaby
    It helps to think we're sleeping underneath the same big sky
    Somewhere out there
    If love can see us through
    Then we'll be together
    Somewhere out there
    Out where dreams come true
    And even though I know how very far apart we are
    It helps to think we might be wishing on the same bright star
    And when the night wind starts to sing a lonesome lullaby
    It helps to think we're sleeping underneath the same big sky
    Somewhere out there
    If love can see us through (Love can see us through)
    Then we'll be together
    Somewhere out there
    Out where dreams come true

  • Hive Open Mic Week #315 | We Can Work It Out - The Beatles (Cover) by @yisusth

    A warm greeting to this wonderful community. In Hive Open Mic #315, we explored the theme: “Moonlight.” I'm pleased to share my trumpet rendition of “We Can Work It Out,” a song that blends genres like pop rock and folk rock, composed by Paul McCartney and John Lennon in 1965. The lyrics address conflict within a relationship and propose dialogue and empathy as paths to resolution. I've had the opportunity to listen to Stevie Wonder's version and others, though I must say The Beatles' is my favorite. The key of this piece is D major, but I play it in C major. The melody is beautiful, persuasive, and repetitive. The time signature is 4/4 with a moderate and expressive dynamic. The harmony is enchanting and narrates both conflict and reconciliation.

    Un cordial saludo para esta bella comunidad. En el Hive Open Mic #315, exploramos el tema: “Moonlight". Tengo el agrado de compartir mi interpretación con la trompeta de «We Can Work It Out», una canción que mezcla géneros como el Pop rock y el Folk rock compuesta por Paul McCartney y John Lennon en la sección intermedia en 1965. La letra habla sobre el conflicto dentro de una relación y plantea el diálogo y la empatía como vías de resolución. He tenido la oportunidad de escuchar la versión de Stevie Wonder y de otros artistas, aunque puedo decir que la de The Beatles es mi favorita. La tonalidad de esta pieza se encuentra en D mayor, en mi caso la interpreto en C mayor. La melodía es hermosa, persuasiva y con repeticiones. La cifra indicadora de compas es de 4/4 con una dinámica moderada y expresiva. La armonía es encantadora y narra tanto el conflicto como reconciliación.

    I love contemplating the moonlight. I consider it part of God's creation, just as sunlight is. The moon and stars have illuminated and guided navigators across vast oceans and have inspired countless songs for their beauty and symbolism. In art, moonlight often represents peace, tranquility, contemplation, and wholesome love. It has also become a great aspiration for humankind; its distance and the difficulty in reaching it have given it a special value, to the point of symbolically offering it to a loved one. Many people observe it through superstition or mysticism; I value it for its role as the natural satellite of our beautiful planet. However, the true light that guides my steps is Jesus Christ. I wholeheartedly feel that neither the moon, nor the sun, nor all the stars can compare to what He means to us. Blessings to all; it's a pleasure to be back on this stage after so long.

    Me encanta contemplar la luz de la luna. Considero que es parte de la creación de Dios, así como lo es la luz del sol. La luna y las estrellas han iluminado y guiado a navegantes a través de vastos océanos, y han sido inspiración de innumerables canciones por su belleza y simbolismo. En el arte, la luz de la luna suele representar paz, quietud, contemplación y un amor sano. También se ha convertido en una gran aspiración para el ser humano; su lejanía y dificultad para alcanzarla le han dado un valor especial, al punto de ofrecerla simbólicamente a la persona amada. Muchas personas la observan desde la superstición o el misticismo; yo la valoro por su función como satélite natural de nuestro hermoso planeta. Sin embargo, la luz verdadera que guía mis pasos es Jesucristo. De todo corazón siento que ni la luna, ni el sol, ni todas las estrellas se comparan con lo que Él significa para nosotros. Bendiciones para todos; es un gusto estar nuevamente en este escenario después de tanto tiempo.

    ## [**We Can Work It Out**](https://genius.com/The-beatles-we-can-work-it-out-lyrics)
    Try to see it my way
    Do I have to keep on talking till I can't go on?
    While you see it your way
    Run the risk of knowing that our love may soon be gone
    We can work it out
    We can work it out
    Think of what you're saying
    You can get it wrong and still you think that it's alright
    Think of what I'm saying
    We can work it out and get it straight or say good night
    We can work it out
    We can work it out
    Life is very short, and there's no time
    For fussing and fighting my friend
    I have always thought, that it's a crime
    So I will ask you once again
    Try to see it my way
    Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong
    While you see it your way
    There's a chance that we might fall apart before too long
    We can work it out
    We can work it out
    Life is very short, and there's no time
    For fussing and fighting my friend
    I have always thought, that it's a crime
    So I will ask you once again
    Try to see it my way
    Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong
    While you see it your way
    There's a chance that we might fall apart before too long
    We can work it out
    We can work it out

  • Spring Song from 4 Short Pieces - Frank Bridge (Cover) by @yisusth

    A warm greeting to everyone in this beautiful #Music community. I am pleased to perform on my trumpet «Spring Song», an instrumental piece from the collection 4 Short Pieces for Violin and Piano, catalog H.104, composed by Frank Bridge in 1912 in England. This musical piece consists of four short pieces: meditation, spring song, lullaby, and country dance. They were written for an educational purpose for advanced students and were dedicated to Cynthia Lubbock, a student and patron of the composer. This song has an allegretto con moto tempo and is in the key of G major, with a time signature of 2/4. It has a brief lyrical ABA form, and its melody has a bright, delicate, and optimistic character. The dynamics are expressive, with ritardandi and nuances ranging from piano to forte. This work clearly belongs to the early romantic stage of the author. Without a doubt, it is a beautiful piece, and I am glad to have performed it.

Esta obra pertenece claramente a la etapa temprana romántica del autor. Sin duda, es una hermosa pieza, y me alegra haberla interpretado.

    I really like the role of the musical director, of the one who carries the baton. In organizations and in society, the need for direction, coordination, and unity is vital. In my personal life, I have learned that to be a good leader, it is important to know how to be a good follower. Humility, sensitivity, and preparation are key to leadership. It is not a matter of trying to impose oneself, but of serving, helping, and supporting a noble cause. We have learned through sad experiences that those who try to impose themselves and exercise unfair dominion lose the respect and connection with their followers. The director must know the piece, the voices, the context, and know the team with whom they work. When an orchestra follows the baton with humility, the result does not exalt the director, but the work itself. I sincerely hope that you enjoy this performance. Blessings to everyone this week.

    Me gusta mucho el papel del director musical, de aquel que lleva la batuta. En las organizaciones y en la sociedad es vital la necesidad de dirección, coordinación y de unidad. En mi vida personal he aprendido que, para ser un buen líder, es importante saber cómo ser un buen seguidor. La humildad, su sensibilidad y preparación son claves para su liderazgo. No es cuestión de tratar de imponerse, sino de servir, ayudar, y apoyar en una noble causa. Hemos aprendido por tristes experiencias, que aquellos que tratan de imponerse y de ejercer injusto dominio, pierden el respeto y la conexión con sus seguidores. El director debe conocer la pieza, las voces, el contexto y conocer al equipo con quien trabaja. Cuando una orquesta sigue la batuta con humildad, el resultado no exalta al director, sino a la obra misma. Espero de corazón que disfruten de esta interpretación. Bendiciones para todos en esta semana.

  • I'll Never Fall In Love Again - Dionne Warwick (Cover) by @yisusth

    A warm greeting to everyone in this wonderful #Music community. I'm delighted to play "I'll Never Fall In Love Again" on my trumpet, a pop song composed by Burt Bacharach and Hal David for the Broadway musical Promises, Promises (1968). I love Dionne Warwick's version; it's my favorite. Her style is thoughtful, elegant, and charming. The song speaks of how love can be an experience that brings disappointment, pain, and abandonment. This piece is in the key of F major, but I play it in D major. The melody is ascending with conversational intervals. The tempo is moderate, with a 4/4 time signature and a rhythm influenced by bossa nova and light swing. It's a viral song that has been used as background music in social media videos, movies, and TV series.

    I was recently enjoying a series that I felt a strong connection to because one of the main characters was a songwriter. She hadn't experienced rejection, heartbreak, or disappointment, and she struggled to express those feelings in her lyrics. This made me reflect on why these sad lyrics and stories resonate with us. I believe we always have a need to cover up and soothe our pain. Those songs we call "heartbreak songs" allow us to vent, feel empathy, and connect with our own experiences. Heartbreak is stimulating and uses the same chemicals as love. When we listen to a song like this, we begin to appreciate what we have and what we have in ourselves. Love is often idealized in music, and it's linked to suffering. As some say, you suffer, but you also experience joy. Heartbreak doesn't signify failure, but rather overcoming a noble challenge. Undoubtedly, it reminds us that we are alive. I hope you enjoy this interpretation.
    Spanish | Español (click here)
    Hace poco estaba disfrutando de una serie con la cual sentí gran conexión porque una de las protagonistas era compositora. Ella no había experimentado el rechazo, el desamor, ni la desilusión y se le dificultaba plasmar en sus letras ese sentimiento. Eso me hizo meditar el porque nos conectas esas letras e historias tristes. Considero que siempre tenemos la necesidad de cubrir y apaciguar nuestro dolor. Esas canciones que nosotros les decimos corta venas nos hacen desahogarnos, sentir empatía, y conectarnos con nuestras propias experiencias. El despecho es estimulante y usa los mismos químicos que el amor. Cuando escuchamos una canción de este estilo empezamos a valorar las cosas que tenemos y las que nos tenemos. En la música se idealiza mucho el amor, y este esta vinculado al sufrimiento. Como dicen algunos, se sufre, pero se goza. El despecho no significa fracaso, sino superación de una noble. Sin duda, nos recuerda que estamos vivos. Espero que disfruten de esta interpretación.

    ## [**I'll Never Fall In Love Again**](https://genius.com/Dionne-warwick-ill-never-fall-in-love-again-lyrics)
    What do you get when you fall in love?
    A guy with a pin to burst your bubble
    That's what you get for all your trouble
    I'll never fall in love again
    I'll never fall in love again
    What do you get when you kiss a guy?
    You get enough germs to catch pneumonia
    After you do, he'll never phone ya
    I'll never fall in love again
    Don't you know that I'll never fall in love again
    Don't tell me what's it all about
    'Cause I've been there and I'm glad I'm out
    Out of those chains, those chains that bind you
    That is why I'm here to remind you
    What do you get when you fall in love?
    You only get lies and pain and sorrow
    So for at least until tomorrow
    I'll never fall in love again
    No, no, I'll never fall in love again
    I'm out of those chains, those chains that bind you
    That is why I'm here to remind you
    What do you get when you fall in love?
    You only get lies pain and sorrow
    So for at least until tomorrow
    I'll never fall in love again
    Don't you know that I'll never fall in love again
    I'll never fall in love again

    A big hug to everyone in this beautiful #Music community. I have the pleasure of performing with my trumpet «Keeping the Love Alive», a song that mixes genres like soft rock and pop rock composed by Richard Supa. The lyrics talk about the fear of loving again, how this feeling is a conscious decision, and about not giving up in the face of difficulties. Air Supply is one of my favorite bands, and there are several iconic songs that I love. Many of those ballads appeared in movies in the 1980s. I perform this piece in the key of G major with a slight change at the end to Bb major. The rhythm is moderate, steady, and with a time signature of 4/4. The melody is beautiful, simple but expressively romantic. The timbre of Russell Hitchcock's clean and melancholic voice sounds incredible. Undoubtedly, a memorable classic.

    Recently I have seen how some young people act impulsively, without measuring the consequences. Some friends had a motorcycle accident. They were coming on the highway at night and lost control of the motorcycle and crashed into a vehicle. One of them lost his life, and the other is fighting for his life in a hospital in intensive care. It has been completely painful to see the suffering and sacrifices of the family. In both trivial and important matters, we must not forget that prudence is a way of acting wisely. Prudence helps us forge our character. Listening to and following the advice of those who have lived longer than us is key. Music also has its risks, and we must listen to it with moderation and respect. One chooses to listen to music at the right amount and in the right place. If it makes us lose concentration on our path, perhaps we fall into a sewer from which we cannot get out. Blessings to all.

    Recientemente he visto como algunas personas jóvenes actúan impulsivamente, y sin medir las consecuencias. Unos amigos tuvieron un accidente en una motocicleta. Ellos venían de noche por la autopista y perdieron el control de la moto y chocaron con un vehículo. Uno de ellos perdió la vida, y el otro se debate su vida en un hospital en cuidados intensivos. Ha sido totalmente doloroso ver el sufrimiento y los sacrificios de la familia. Tanto en lo trivial como lo importante, no hay que olvidarse que la prudencia es una manera de actuar sabiamente. La prudencia nos ayuda a forjar nuestro carácter. Escuchar y seguir los consejos de los que han vivido mas que nosotros es clave. La música también tiene sus riesgos y debemos escucharla con moderación y respeto. Uno escoge escuchar música en el monto y el lugar oportuno. Si nos hace perder la concentración de nuestro trayecto quizás caigamos en una alcantarilla del cual no podamos salir. Bendiciones para todos.

    ## [**Keeping the Love Alive**](https://genius.com/Air-supply-keeping-the-love-alive-lyrics)
    Both of us holdin' back, so afraid
    To fall in love and lose again
    We've both been hurt before
    So love walked out the door in the end
    Acting as cold as ice when we wanna be
    Just a foolish game we play
    You couldn't hurt me bad enough
    To make me give it up and walk away
    We can't stop
    The feeling's too strong
    We've got the will to hang on
    Can't stop
    We struggle and fight to survive
    Just keepin' the love alive
    Try to forget the past so many times
    It's hard to make those mem'ries leave
    With all we have at stake
    We bend until we break 'cause we both believe
    We can't stop
    The feeling's too strong
    We've got the will to hang on
    Can't stop
    We struggle and fight to survive
    Just keepin' the love alive
    If we stand the test of time
    Love will be the lasting kind
    We can't stop
    The feeling's too strong
    We've got the will to hang on
    Can't stop
    We struggle and fight to survive
    Just keepin' the love alive
    We can't stop
    The feeling's too strong
    We've got the will to hang on
    Can't stop
    We struggle and fight to survive
    Just keepin' the love alive
    We can't stop
    The feeling's too strong
    We've got the will to hang on
    Can't stop
    We struggle and fight to survive
    Just keepin' the love alive

    A warm greeting to everyone in this beautiful #Music community. I have the pleasure of performing with my trumpet «So Easy (To Fall in Love)», a song that blends genres such as Jazz pop, bossa nova, contemporary pop, composed by Olivia Dean, Amy Allen, John Ryan, and Max Wolfgang. The song was inspired by observing how her friends approached their first dates with anxiety and insecurity, focusing too much on pleasing the other person and little on recognizing their own worth. This piece is in E♭ major, and in my case, I perform it in G major. The melody is flirtatious, firm but relaxed. The time signature is 4/4 with a moderate tempo and a groove inspired by bossa nova. The main challenge presented by the song is that I come after a weekend of inactivity, and it was difficult for me to maintain breath control. A slight timing mismatch in one phrase.

    Un cordial saludo para todos en esta bella comunidad de #Music. Tengo el placer de interpretar con mi trompeta «So Easy (To Fall in Love)», una canción que mezcla géneros como el Jazz pop, bossa nova, pop contemporáneo compuesta por Olivia Dean, Amy Allen, John Ryan, y Max Wolfgang. La canción fue inspirada al observar cómo sus amigas afrontaban las primeras citas con ansiedad e inseguridad, centrándose demasiado en agradar al otro y poco en reconocer su propio valor. Esta pieza se encuentra en Mi♭ mayor y en mi caso la interpreto en G mayor. La melodía es coqueta, firme pero relajada. La cifra indicadora de compas es de 4/4 con un tempo moderado y un groove inspirado en bossa nova. El reto principal que presento la canción es que vengo de un fin de semana de inactividad, y me costó tener control de la respiración. Un leve desfase de tiempo en una frase.

    I recently watched a movie where both protagonists had incurable diseases and where they took advantage of those last days to be happy and to leave a mark on the lives of others. The purpose of life is to be happy and to make those who accompany us on our earthly journey happy. Music transcends, and leaves a trace of our humanity, of our identity, and of our desires. There are many songs that come to mind that connect me with very lived experiences, some sad, others happy. Heaven is described with angelic voices, and it is likely that those melodies are a construction and inspiration of God. What a beautiful legacy we leave as creators of musical content; some of these works are like monuments, or pyramids, that remain through time. I hope you enjoy this performance and have a happy week. I wish you all the best.

    Hace poco veía una película donde ambos protagonistas tenían enfermedades incurables y donde aprovecharon eso últimos días para ser felices y para dejar una huella en las vidas de otros. El propósito de la vida es ser feliz, y hacer felices a quienes nos acompañan en nuestro trayecto terrenal. La música trasciende, y deja un vestigio de nuestra humanidad, de nuestra identidad, y de nuestros deseos. Hay muchas canciones que vienen a mi mente que me conectan con experiencias muy vividas, algunas tristes, otras felices. El cielo es descrito con voces angelicales, y es probable que esas melodías sean una construcción e inspiración de Dios. Que hermoso legado dejamos los creadores de contenido musical, algunas de esas obras son como monumentos, o pirámides, que permanecen en el tiempo. Espero que disfruten de esta interpretación y tengan una feliz semana. Les deseo lo mejor.

    I could be the twist, the one to make you stop
    The icing on your cake, the cherry on the top
    There's Heaven in my heart, and we could find you some space, mm
    I could be the world to you, the missing piece
    The extra sentimental kind of chemistry
    Some people make it hard, with me, that isn't the case
    'Cause I make it so easy to fall in love
    So, come give me a call, and we'll fall into us
    I'm the perfect mix of Saturday night and the rest of your life
    Anyone with a heart would agree
    It's so easy
    To fall in love with
    The way I do my hair, the way I make you laugh
    The way we like to share a walk in Central Park
    I could be fresh air, might be the girl of your dreams (Dreams, dreams, dreams)
    There's no need to hide if you're into me
    'Cause I'm into you quite intimately
    And maybe one night could turn into three
    Well, I'm down to see
    'Cause I make it so easy to fall in love
    So, come give me a call, and we'll fall into us
    I'm the perfect mix of Saturday night and the rest of your life
    Anyone with a heart would agree
    It's so easy
    To fall in love with me
    (Me, me)
    Me (Me, me)
    Me (Me, me)
    Me (Me, me)
    It's so easy (Me, me)
    It's so easy (Me, me)
    It's so easy (Me, me)
    Yeah (Me, me)
    So easy to fall in love
    So, come give me a call, and we'll fall into us
    I'm the perfect mix of Saturday night and the rest of your life
    Anyone with a heart would agree
    It's so easy
    To fall in love with me
