    Against all criticisms and forecasts, Venezuela today holds the world record for having the Largest Orchestra in the World, and I can proudly say that I was a participant in this historic event. Last Saturday, November 13, 2021, a concert broadcast live was held in the Patio of the Military Academy of the city of Caracas with more than 11 thousand musicians on stage with the presence of the delegates of the Guinness World Records institution, and as a member of the tenor line of the Simón Bolívar National Choir I was present.

    Contra todas las críticas y pronósticos, Venezuela hoy tiene el récord mundial de tener la Orquesta Más Grande del Mundo, y orgullosamente puedo decir que fui partícipe de este evento histórico. El pasado sábado 13 de Noviembre de 2021 se llevó a cabo en el Patio de la Academia Militar de la ciudad de Caracas un concierto transmitido en vivo con más de 11 mil músicos en escena con la presencia de los delegados de la institución Guinness World Records, y como integrante de la fila de tenores de la Coral Nacional Simón Bolívar estuve presente.

    Despite being an event where a lot of music was shared, the main idea to break the world record was to beat the 8,097 Russian performers who had this title since 2019, with a piece longer than five minutes; For this, the Slavic March, by the Russian composer Piotr Ilich Tchaikovsky, was chosen and it was directed by Andrés Ascanio, a direct relative of our beloved and late Maestro Abreu.

    A pesar de ser un evento donde se compartió mucha música, la idea principal para romper el récord mundial era superar a los 8.097 ejecutantes rusos que tenían este título desde 2019, con una pieza mayor a cinco minutos; para ello se eligió la Marcha Eslava, del compositor ruso Piotr Ilich Tchaikovsky y fue dirigida por Andrés Ascanio, familiar directo de nuestro querido y desaparecido Maestro Abreu.

    Finally the record was achieved with 8,573 players of the aforementioned piece. Even so, it is not a secret that for other shorter pieces we were a couple of thousand more musicians, as in the case of the choir, which although it is not included in the record we were present performing Handel's Hallelujah, Venezuela, Alma Llanera and of course our National Anthem, which resounded throughout the city as never before.

    Finalmente el récord se logró con 8.573 ejecutantes de la pieza antes mencionada. Aún así no es un secreto que para otras piezas más cortas fuimos un par de miles de músicos más, como en el caso del coro, que aunque no se incluye en el récord estuvimos presentes interpretando el Hallelujah de Handel, Venezuela, el Alma Llanera y por supuesto nuestro Himno Nacional, que resonó en toda la ciudad como nunca lo había hecho.

    Unfortunately, the criticism and rejection of many Venezuelans against the event was immediately felt. And I do not blame them, in fact I understand part of their annoyance since the political dispute is what is lived day to day in my country and there are two sides with very different ways of thinking. For my part, I can only say that it seemed unnecessary to achieve the record in time of pandemic, but the activity was going to happen anyway, and as a child of the System of Orchestras and Choirs we feel committed to "We Oneself" to give the best we have to exalt our country. I am sure that most of those present only had in mind the musical part and we did not think of any type of poison, besides that no one was forced to participate and at least I can say that I received good food, despite what the press (I don't know other musicians, each one has different experiences).

    Lamentablemente la crítica y rechazo de muchos venezolanos en contra del evento se hizo sentir de inmediato. Y no los culpo, de hecho entiendo parte de su molestia ya que la disputa política es lo que se vive día a día en mi país y hay dos bandos con maneras muy distintas de pensar. Por mi parte solo puedo decir que me pareció innecesario lograr el récord en tiempo de pandemia, pero igual la actividad iba a ocurrir, y como hijo del Sistema de Orquestas y Coros nos sentimos comprometidos con "Nosotros Mismos" a dar lo mejor que tenemos para enaltecer a nuestro país. Estoy seguro que la mayoría de los presentes solo teníamos en la mente la parte musical y no pensamos en ningún tipo de veneno, además que nadie estuvo obligado a participar y al menos yo puedo decir que recibí buen alimento, a pesar de lo que comenta la prensa (no sé otros músicos, cada quien tiene experiencias distintas).

    The fact is that nobody has the absolute truth, I only know that I am happy to have participated and I think that any criticism should be directed to the organizers of this event, not to the musicians. I shared this experience with many friends from Hive Blog like my partner Jhoxiris and users like @douz, @nazaptp and @jorge234nv. I took a lot of photos and videos that day with my Alcatel Cameo X, and others were taken by my fellow choirs. I edited the video with Shot Cut and the main image of the post was simply edited with Windows Power Point. I hope this reading has been to your liking, as I always say, we read in your "respectful comments".

    El caso es que nadie tiene la verdad absoluta, yo solo sé que estoy feliz de haber participado y pienso que cualquier crítica tienen que dirigirla a los organizadores de este evento, no a los músicos. Esta experiencia la compartí con muchos amigos de Hive Blog como mi pareja Jhoxiris y usuarios como @douz, @nazaptp y @jorge234nv. Tomé muchas fotografías y videos ese día con mi Alcatel Cameo X, y otras me las tomaron compañeros del coro. El video lo edité con Shot Cut y la imagen principal del post la edité simplemente con Power Point de Windows. Espero esta lectura haya sido de tu agrado, como siempre digo, nos leemos en sus "respetuosos comentarios".
