Children Singers at Professional Level in Venezuela

Hello, hello, happy to make a publication for the Sound of Music at Hive! A few days ago I had a very nice experience and I wanted to share it with you, since once again the talent of the Venezuelan youth was present in the middle of our rehearsal of Handel's Messiah to meet a wonderful children's group.

These little ones are the Niños Cantores de Nirgua, a group from El Sistema that lives in the state of Yaracuy. A couple of weeks ago they had the privilege of having several presentations in the city of Caracas, and I will not deny it, I was very surprised to discover again that not only in the capital of Venezuela excellent music is made, these children are very special and great artists at their young age. I have faith that no matter the corner of Venezuela, there is always a lot of talent to give.

I recorded many videos that day, but I decided for the song of the video, which is called Montilla, because my dad taught it to me since I was very young, and I think he was the only one in my choir who knew it, besides the musical arrangement is by a personal friend of my family, Jesus Cordero. It moved me a lot of feelings to remember my first children's choirs where of course I was directed by my own dad and I learned many things that I use today in my day to day life.

These children are accompanied by great eminences of music that make life in the State of Yaracuy, but the most important thing is that they follow to the letter the teachings of the young director Khaterine Tejera, another daughter of the System of Orchestras and Choirs and that passionately and proudly has managed to consolidate this small group so much that they can already travel to other states of the country to perform, simply wonderful and admirable.

We are the professional group and example par excellence in our institution and I dare say in the country. This little presentation of the children was made while they were waiting for the bus to return to their town, and we also showed them a little of our work, but here among us, how much we can teach them in a short moment, it is more what they taught us with their innocence and great talent at such a young age, besides filling us with pride for our country and our people. The future of choral music in Venezuela is beautiful, I think there will be no room for so many singers in a few years 😍
