7.Klezmer Music

Hi everybody  , today  in this free post I have to talk about a matter that I chose .

So , I thought , and I want to talk about Klezmer Music, because is an genre that  I’m interested about , and I really like it’s  melodies and rhythm .

What  is Klezmer Music? .Originally, the word “klezmer” , from the Yiddish language, meant “musician”. The Klezmer music  is the folk Yiddish music ,it’s traditional of Yiddish , it is full history and emotion . In the beginning, it was used, for religious events, weddings, funerals, and joyful celebrations.    

One characteristic is that the instruments have to  imitate the  voice , principally with the violin or the clarinet .It’s commonly said that  the music has “ to  make the clarinet cry” or violin. The interpretation should  be very expressive .

Klezmer music in  time has been  influenced by other  styles,incorporating various sounds of music from European and international traditions , like Roman (gypsy)music, Russian music.      
The common instruments of Kezmer music  are  violin , clarinet , bass , drums , accordion .  The old musicians learned by themselves   .

Today klezmer music is open to everyone , and has  mutated with other styles.

Well , check it  out  by yourself  . Here is a  music video of traditional Klezmer  Music ,  enjoy it

6. Summary



Hello, today I’m going to talk about a “new” that really called my attention


The notice that I chose is titled:
“Theatre in a giant Emmental powered by exercise bikes – why ever not?”

I’ts about a new play called “Cheesse” that is been played right now in Londres.
 It’s about the financial crisis seen from an absurd and sarcastic view.

This theatre company is called FanSHEn and whit this play they  want to generate conscience about the climate change , and also prove or demonstrate Alison Tickell’s declaration “sustainability has a direct impact on artwork so we don't keep the processes separate"
She also directed the play “Julie’s bicycle”.

Since 2012 FanShen Company discovered a new way to make the process of their plays. They propose themselfs to make a play in wich the used elements were carried only in public transport and bicycles.
This optimized their job and the resources.

A similar case happened with the play “Cheese”, but in the lighting, because the power budget of the play is 3kwh. They created a mechanism wich is connected to gym bicycles with the light utilized in the show. The play is powered for this. Who pedal these bikes are the public, and they “get money off their ticket to the show in return for their energy contribution”.

With this production, “doing sustainability” has a direct impact in their art work.

5. Sample post - DREAMS

Hello , in this post I will talk to you about an topic of my interest , the dreams.

I'm interest in this topic because sometimes I have a lot of dreams ... And recently I have had strange dreams.

I would like to know the meaning of the dreams, and the meaning of my dreams . I know that something have the same meaning for everybody. But others are particular meaning, it’s depending.

Sometimes I wake up with the same sensation that I was in my dream, that's crazy, it’s like the dream were true.  and sometimes I , in the dream want open my eyes and wake up , but I can’t .. And then I wake up little afraid.

 Several times the dream is so long like a film, with many details, things colors and places, that I cannot help thinking in this during the day.

Also , something weird  , is that  sometimes   , in the dream  I am aware that I’m dreaming  , and inside it  I try to change things , and create situations that I think.

There is a lot to be said for the dreams I think.

Well good bye. Have sweet dreams.

4. Sample Post - BLOOMERS..

One theme of my interest is about history of women’s pants. This event in the fashion history caused inconveniences for the thought of that time.  This was very advanced for that time .

The first attempt to change was in 1851 , with Amelia Bloomer , an important  feminist activist . She in addition to this, make the firs newspaper for women , and she took advantage to this for promote it.

The model of  bloomer was like an balloon , was like an skirt pants , very wider , and more comfortable  that the clothes of this time . In this time the Victorian`s dress was fashionable. 

When some women started to used , was  ridiculed, because , never  been seen before  . Generally the women that used was women that had an feminist thought.. .

So , when this happened this stopped using this.

In 1890 it come back , with the birth of the bicycle . And  now  it wasn't criticized like before . It was  good looking . The women  used this for made sports . The model of course that change , now was more  small , and had more  designs to choice.

well. that's a very general vision , and summary.
