Will Old Chicken Broth Make You Sick





We're all in recent days, taking in the new "step change" that Zapatero has proposed to his new government, and not really finished take him over.

The latest "tune" of some ministers in recent months have had to piss off the conductor, who has chosen, in most cases, for hiring "first violin" already known. He has had to think "better known evil worse to know" and the result can not only be a melody that you've already heard before, and you never had "invited" to leave the dance floor.

Sometimes the error can be in the score, if this is bad, even the best violinist in the world with his Stradivarius at the shoulder, can make it sound pleasing to our ears, even to accelerate "the compass "in the execution of the work.

In others, it is the conductor which to interpret a score you do not know the right speed for the same, resulting in failure to impose a tempo "Allegro molto" would have sufficed as an "Allegro ma non troppo, and the intensity of it, or forte to fortissimo, when the note had to be interpreted with a piano or pianissimo nuance.

The problem is not only the conductor, which of course has never been able to play something that sounds fairly good many English, not make the grade as a director, is also one of the musicians and again we are taking "note" both in his statements, decisions, attitudes and skills.

The director and his musicians these days have expressed their intention to maintain its repertoire, a repertoire that on the other side just has contented their unconditional public but this orchestra, maintained by all, must "touch" for everyone.

We can not continue with continuous "trials" have to start playing seriously, the "stage" every day is black, and it's time the requirements and results, and a "step change" I'm sure will not be enough to fix.
