HISTORY

Cuando yo era niño, comencé a tomar clases de piano. Tenía ocho años de edad.
En las clases mi profesora golpeado mis manos con una regla de madera. Tras varios años y a punto de examinarme ella manifestó a mis padres que veía talento en mí y que necesitaba un piano en casa. Antes de nacer yo, mi familia tenía un piano de cola en casa, y no les gusto mucho la idea por lo que dijeron de manera contundente…” Ni hablar, no vamos a comprar otro”. Y ahí terminaron mis clases de piano con la profesora de la regla de madera. Durante tres meses me puse a pintar un retrato de Ludwig Van Beethoven. Estaba entusiasmado, pero cuando lo enseñe el retrato a mi profe de arte sentenció de manera tajante. “Es una buena copia pero esto no es arte. Así que encontré mi propio camino al comprar una guitarra muy básica y rudimentaria para afrontar de buen gusto mi trabajo con el dibujo, la música y el teatro.
Hace un año y ocho meses compre un buen teclado y recuperé tiempo. Tan solo 56 años después. ¡Nunca es tarde!

When I was a child of about 8 I took piano lessons, but a few years later at the point of my first exam, according to my teacher who hit me on the hands with a wooden ruler, said that I had some talent and needed a piano at home. Before I was born my family had a grand piano in the house, but said...” No ways, we are not buying another piano”. Over the next 3 months I painted a portrait of Ludwig van Beethoven . I showed it to my art teahcer who said “It´s a good copy but it is not art!
So I found my way buying a shitty guitar and bit by bit began my fight with drawing, music and theatre. One year and 8 months ago I bought a good keyboard and regained lost time. Only 56 years later.
It’s never too late!
