10. Ariel Ramírez composed
the Misa Criolla in 1963-
1964 as one of
the first masses in the
national idiom. Ramírez not
only used the language of his
country but also the musical
rhythms of Argentina, partly
played by local instruments.
By the time he died in 2010,
his work was globally
renowned. Plácido Domingo,
José Carreras and Mercedes
Sosa are some of the artists to
have recorded his work.
Ésta versión es una de mis favoritas
(One of my favorite “Misa Criolla”
pieces is the following):
◦ Gloria – Misa Criolla – La Huella –
Coro de la FCEFyN UNC Dir.
Cecilia Croce

All I have to do is close my eyes, and I’m
there. To sing really is to pray twice…
Cierro mis ojos, y allí estoy. Cantar de veras
es rezar dos veses.

17. Pero no cambia mi amor
Por más lejos que me encuentre
Ni el recuerdo ni el dolor
De mi pueblo y de mi gente
Lo que cambió ayer
Tendrá que cambiar mañana
Así como cambio yo… en esta tierra lejana

Cambia, todo cambia…cambia, todo cambia…

22. Sole Giménez – “Honrar la Vida” ft. Rozalén
January 21, 2021***
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vlE__NGEFD4
◦ En el cuarto single de este nuevo disco “Mujeres de Musica Vol.2” es el
momento para una canción con un gran peso moral: “Honrar la vida” de la
gran autora argentina Eladía Blazquez a la que Sole ya visitó en Mujeres de
Música vol. 1 “Esta canción es un grito de conciencia y libertad que suena
todavía más urgente y necesaria en tiempos de pandemia, de miedo e
incertidumbre. En unas circunstancias que nos recuerdan la fragilidad de la
vida, es todavía más necesario que se medite sobré qué es en verdad la vida,
qué es vivir si no respetarse a uno mismo y no desfallecer. Este canto de
conciencia y dignidad, sentí que debía compartirlo con otra voz, y sólo podía
ser la de la autora y compositora más valiente… María Rozalén”

◦ Natalia Lafourcade - Soledad y El
Mar (En Manos de Los Macorinos)
[La Fiesta Parte II] - May 5, 2017
◦ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v
=gd4jntP0tco
◦ “Soledad y el mar es una muestra del
potencial poético de los boleros, creando
atmósferas donde la soledad, el dolor, el
recuerdo, los buenos momentos y la música se
mezclan por unos minutos para darnos esa
sensación que los brasileños llaman saudade.”
◦ Me encanta ésta pieza de Natalia Lafourcade.
Ella tiene sus raíces en Veracruz cerca del mar.
El mar para mi siempre ha sido un puerto
seguro para reflecionar y enfocarme en el
presente. ĺToda la naturaleza es una canción de
alabanza que nunca deja de cantar! …

27. ◦Saludos a toda nuestra
querida familia y amistades.
Un fuerte abrazo departe de
Blanca, Joe, y familia desde
Merritt Island, Florida. Espero
que encontraron esperanza
consoladora en las misas y
canciónes seleccionadas… y
que les haya gustado. ¡Los
quiero mucho!
