Pirisalsa Orchestra

Latin America / Venezuela / Falcon

The music is the result of the creation of a rhythm that tries to convey a message that the artists give to their audience and depending on the voice, the lyrics, the instruments and above all the desire to transmit that feeling, they make people want to listen to it and dance to it.

The Orchestras became known for being dynamic groups, creators of rhythms and party entertainers; something that cannot be replaced by a DJ or digital music, since recorded music and live music are two different things.

In the state of Falcón, Venezuela, there is the Grupo Piritu, who make up the Pirisalsa Orchestra, they are a group of talented young people who, despite their young ages, know how to transmit the flavor of Salsa to their audience.

They emerged and were educated in schools and through the selection of the most outstanding children in music, they gradually gave rise to the orchestra, being a pleasant and rhythmic sound to the audience to date, not to mention that it is a group with many followers full of dreams and musical desires. They mention that “since our first presentation on October 19, 2011 to date we have not stopped working…”.

Currently his manager is Frank Molina, he says:

“That as a manager whenever he discovers a rough diamond project what he wants is to make it shine to achieve and achieve the dreams of each member and turns it into a single dream, because the Pirisalsa orchestra is a family. …the goal is to ensure that our work is recognized both nationally and internationally, I have been working for some time now, spreading this project on radio, television and social networks, we also have the support of many artists who believe in this Project. These young people are admirable because at their young ages they decided on this genre that is SALSA”.

The Pirisalsa Orchestra plays SALSA, with a smooth style in its message and melody, despite the fact that the rhythm is very lively, thanks to the percussion instruments, showing us and maintaining its Latin, Afro-descendant, and Caribbean roots in its music.

They have had the opportunity to participate in several important events in Venezuela, such as the PDVSA Salsa Festival held in La Estancia, Caracas in two editions, where they managed to share with great bastions of this genre throughout Venezuela, especially in Caracas, there were also a Festival in Maracay, Aragua and recently at the Whatuyusei Festival in Punto Fijo, Falcón, where they shared with artists such as Omar Enrique, la Melodía Perfecta, Gustavo Eli, los Bois Servando and Florentino, among others.

However, their goal and desire is to take their music throughout Venezuela and abroad so that the whole world can listen to them, appreciate their talent and be able to project themselves as an orchestra, since when they are on stage in a presentation they sing full of a feeling of love but that is with great elegance, with a fresh, tender language, full of emotion and kindness, but always transmitting his deep love for his homeland Venezuela.

The members of the orchestra are mostly young people and children from the town of Piritu, Falcón, dividing into:

● Evannys Lorves – Vocalist	● Daniel Peña – Hand Bell
● José Amundarai – Vocalist	● Bongo Wullian Álvarez – Piano
● Yerli Lugo – Vocalist	● Javier Gómez bajo eléctrico
● José Daniel Lugo – Timbal	● David Gómez (director musical) – trombón
● Reinaldo Pérez – Congas	● Reinaldo Antonio Pérez – Trumpet
● Navarro trompeta y Luis Navarro – Trombón

The Pirisalsa Orchestra and its Manager Frank Colina gave a message to all the new talents, which goes like this “if you have a musical dream, don’t let difficulties stop your path, believe in your virtues, try to be yourself, don’t copy nobody, be original, offer your own proposal and believe deeply in it, don’t stop no matter how hard the circumstances are, fight relentlessly until you break down the barriers and achieve your goals. He who perseveres achieves.”

The Son Rumbero Academy: E-Learning in virtual classrooms reached the world of dance

Latin America / Venezuela / Caracas

The Son Rumbero Academy, in step with technological advances, now opens a virtual classroom that will allow you to access an interesting range of online courses open to all through distance education processes with invited international instructors.

The teaching and learning processes are led hand in hand by education professionals, people who handle various tools and techniques that allow reaching the objectives of generalized instruction, now, the means and the contexts that affect this process are in the same way. of great importance to meet the aforementioned goals, hence the institutions invest so much time in physical improvements for the setting of the spaces destined to unite these processes.

It is not new to speak that technological means have invaded all areas of knowledge, there is no longer an area or content that is not already in process or in the process of being taught through the internet, hence the term distance learning. It is not something that escapes from the normality of our day to day.

Professor José Manuel Pérez, director of the Son Rumbero Academy with a great career in the field of salsa and education professional in the area of computer science, is carrying out a process of teaching dance through virtual means, in this case, using the so famous virtual classrooms, where it focuses on asynchronous and asynchronous communication processes by which, the didactic interaction with the students predominates as the elementary basis of teaching, the student becomes the main center of self-information managing their learning through tutors and classmates from the open classroom for the specific dance specialty, is learning to dance by learning, it is doing it between appropriate means and environments.

Aula Virtual - Son Rumbero Academy — Aula Virtual – Son Rumbero Academy

The ways and methods of how to educate in the world of dance have always been maintained, in fact many people look for different alternatives given the circumstances of their tasks, work, home, occupations, in itself, an endless number of causes motivate the desertion when it comes to complying with schedules and routines in dance halls or gyms…

How many do not avoid entering this face-to-face modality due to little free time or the long time it takes to travel to a location, hence new ideas arise that facilitate access to world of dance from any corner of the world and at the time you want, and who would not like to adjust their classes to the hours and days they prefer, even more so if they can change them weekly according to their availability.

The Son Rumbero Academy project is not an original project, E-Learning and virtual classrooms have been in the educational world for several years, only that for the context of dance it was present in tutorial videos, a positive element but more of the same circle for some:

With a virtual classroom, the teaching process is extended, it not only depends on what the student has seen and practiced, in this we obtain constant supervision of the process, teachers dedicated to nourishing theoretical information and practicing something extremely important when understanding music and shaping it in dance it is about taking evaluations, participating in forums or conversations with several students in the same classroom, surveys, tutorial videos, correction process by videos sent to the teacher, easy access to multimedia elements…

from songs to explanatory audios, a world full of of elements that support to a greater degree the fact of learning from any dance discipline, not to mention seminars or professional courses, certifications of improvements in methodological processes in teaching for teachers and instructors, going from evaluation processes for dance competitions to complete percussion courses, a whole world of knowledge and elements given to the me You work in dance and now in music.

For this month of April, the project will begin with 3 high-impact courses, one on Cuban folklore dictated by Mr. Damian Ballester, a certification for instructors based on planning, evaluation and methodological processes of teaching by Professor José Manuel Pérez , closing with a theoretical-practical seminar on the complex of the rumba soon dictated by a professional in this area, director of one of the largest Cuban groups and participate in endless documentaries oriented to the complex of the rumba, a surprise that They will give us soon.

In the same way, they are betting on a new teaching method for beginners, those who perhaps want more privacy when starting steps in the world of salsa or another genre, new media that can contribute to the development of the diffusion of salsa in the world.

The invitation is now open for you to follow the accounts of the son rumbero academy on Instagram and Facebook at @sonrumbero, by the numbers of its offices in Colombia +573022582306, Venezuela +584122110104, Chile and soon in Peru and Argentina.

Eduardo Herrera

Latin America / Puerto Rico / Puerto Rico

Puerto Rican singer Eduardo Herrera presents us with his new album “Libre” which will have 10 songs, one of them has the same title as the album, which aroused our curiosity. He mentions that his song “Libre” deals with a false love that destroys and manipulates at his convenience, his process of liberation from all that is bad or toxic in that love and, above all, the search for a force to have the courage to face everything and so on. being able to value yourself as a person and being able to look at yourself in the mirror.

Eduardo Herrera tells us that “it is not just a song, it is a way to get out of a prison, of the emotional and physical abuse that you can receive from a person who supposedly loves you… for me it has a lot of meaning, I sing it with great emotion because I lived it I got over it and now I’m free.”

The origin of the album was thanks not only to the singer but also to the good musicians who accompanied him, designed and finished him, among them the arrangers Richard Marcell (piano and bass) and Adán Pérez (piano), Tito de Gracia on percussion, Juan Carlos Cardona (Juako) with Trombones, Jesús Alonzo with Trumpet, Ángel Torres with Baritone.

Eduardo Herrera says that since he was a child he has sung in different choirs as he mentioned in the previous report, but from the age of 11 he fell in love with tropical music thanks to Jerry Rivera with the song “Casi un Hechizo” becoming addicted or passionate about the sound of the trumpets the congas and the romantic songs. After the separation of his partner, he began to write his own songs, and later he met a first-class musician named Adán Pérez, a great pianist and arranger; together they met to write and create the current themes of the discography.

He (Eduardo Herrera) also told us that he was in a choir called the Housing Authority Youth Choir, where he had many pleasant experiences and the opportunity to sing at Radio City Music Hall with the British Rock Symphony. In 2016 he produced an album of sacred music and had the honor of meeting Richard Marcell, winner of several Grammys as an arranger and musician, in that production he made 5 excellent songs.

The discography “Libre” has themes that speak of pain, love and the hope of a new beginning for the artist, that is, it is a production with a great variety of lyrics, he confesses that each song is its own story, it has its own identity and hopes that the salsa audience enjoys his work to the fullest since he left his whole being in that production.

In order for the professional life of an artist to be recognized, the greatest obstacle must be avoided, which is oneself, limiting oneself, being afraid; always says: to all my brothers or sisters who are starting something or have a goal in life, don’t give up, fight for your dreams

Fundación Cultural Madera 15 where Brotherhood, Sports, Dance and Salsa go Hand in Hand

By the end of the 70’s and beginning of the 80’s a group of young people from different parts of the country gathered by chance in the same sector 4 de las Mercedes in La Victoria, Aragua State, began to listen to the new genre of the time, the popular “Salsa”.

Fundación Cultural Madera 15 donde la Hermandad, el Deporte, la Danza y la Salsa van de la Mano

Each one with different tastes but without leaving the genre, they felt the desire to imitate the Venezuelan and international bands they knew through the Lps, so every weekend they organized themselves to play their instruments with musicians already studied and the guataqueros in an empirical way.

These meetings became more and more frequent and due to the need of an acquaintance of the zone to have a salsa group they decided to form the first salsa group of the sector called “El Quinto Sonero”, then years later with many of the members of the previous group they formed the group “Juancito y su Son” and years later the “Conjunto Sabor”.

It is worth mentioning that the rehearsals of the different groups took place in the homes of some of the members, playing songs by Ray Barreto; Eddie Palmieri; Dimensión Latina; Grupo Mango; Trabuco Venezolano Grupo Libre and of course Grupo Madera, among others.

By the end of the 80’s this same group of young people always supported by their families decided to formalize all the events that took place during the year, thus creating the “Madera 15 Foundation” unifying culture, sports, art and dance all in what was once a “Little Square” and over the years became a court, which would become its main location.

Its name is due to the admiration that everyone felt for Grupo Madera and product of its unexpected accident in which most of its members lost their lives on August 15, 1980.

For this reason the affection and the interpretation of many of their songs and the attendance to their concerts. Once the tragedy occurred, the passion for the Caracas group grew, specifically in the Marín neighborhood of San Agustín del Sur, which was invited to the inauguration of the Cancha in 1989, an invitation that was accepted and it was possible to enjoy three days of Afro-Caribbean songs and dances among neighbors and people close to the area.

From then on, cultural, recreational and sporting activities are carried out and one of the most important meetings is organized every year on December 31st, where the Guataca de Fin de Año is held, which began as an informal meeting of these young people every year-end, specifically on the 31st of the year, and continued with a soup on January 1st, welcoming the new year.

Currently by decree of the Mayor of the Municipality of Ribas in La Victoria Aragua State, specifically by Mayor Juan Carlos “Jaimito” Sanchez in his 1st term in 2012, the Municipal Day of Salsa is celebrated, and are invited to cultors and musicians from different parts of the country to participate in this special date with all attendees, which enjoy a unique day full of much feeling.

For years, all kinds of musicians, orchestras, groups and salsa characters that have exalted the salsa culture, as well as characters of the gaita and folklore, have passed through the festival.

Today, the tradition of the Guataca is still maintained, paying tribute to the life of its famous characters and remembering those who left for another plane and those who unfortunately emigrated.

Hand in hand with the music was also formed the dance group of the area called in its beginnings “Los Gurrugurru” which performed nationalist dances and sang aguinaldos and parranda every Christmas. Today there is still a dance group called “Danzas Tricolor” also dancing all the national folkloric dances.

Through both groups passed the great majority of the young people of the sector and after generations their children and now grandchildren, all under the direction of Griseida and Mileyda Batidas.

It is important to highlight some emblematic names of the foundation among them stand out:

Benilde (RIP), Mercedes (RIP), Ligia (RIP), Aminta (RIP), Alicia (RIP), Carmen (RIP), , Williams (RIP), Santana (RIP), Agustín (RIP), Neptali (RIP), Mileyda (RIP), Ángel Miguel (RIP), Amalia, Dinora, Raquel, Adela, Eugenia, Ángel, Jaime, Nelly, Entre otros.

Participating Families:

Los Bauter, Los Yanes, Los Ascanio, Los Bastidas Salazar, Los Momplasiert, Los Power, Los Anzolar, Los Escalona, Los Guevara and many more.

Memorable sites

La Placita, La Cancha, La Matica de Amalia, La Esquina de los Bauter, and El Terreno.

There the traces of all those who in their time gave their hearts for the good of the most rumbustious sector of La Victoria were captured.

This message goes to them:

MADERA 15 we are all and even those who left.
