    Welcome to my music blog. Today, I share with you my trumpet interpretation of “This Masquerade”, a slow tempo ballad that talks about two people who are in love, and who pretend to be just friends. This piece of music was composed by the American singer and musician Leon Russell. I've had the chance to hear this song in movies like The Exorcist, The Pursuit of Happyness, and The Bodyguard. The song is in the key of E Major. The melody is based on a descending scale starting on the note E and ending on the note C#. It has a 4/4 time signature and a rhythm that makes the song emotionally powerful. This generates a feeling of intimacy, vulnerability, energy and emotion. Harmony is relatively simple. However, the use of secondary dominant chords and chromaticism helps create a sense of tension and suspense, which builds up to the release of the chorus.

    Bienvenidos a mi blog musical. Hoy les comparto mi interpretación con la trompeta de «This Masquerade», una balada de tempo lento que habla de dos personas que están enamoradas, y que pretenden ser solo amigos. Esta pieza musical fue compuesta por el cantante y músico estadounidense León Russell. He tenido la oportunidad de escuchar esta canción en películas como El exorcista, En busca de la felicidad y El guardaespaldas. La canción se encuentra en la tonalidad de E Mayor. La melodía se basa en una escala descendente que comienza en la nota E y termina en la nota C#. Tiene un compás de 4/4 y un ritmo que hace que la canción sea emocionalmente poderosa. Este genera una sensación de intimidad, vulnerabilidad, energía y emoción. La armonía es relativamente simple. Sin embargo, el uso de acordes dominantes secundarios y cromatismo ayuda a crear una sensación de tensión y suspenso, que se acumula hasta la liberación del coro.

    As I shared with you a few days ago, I changed the trumpet mouthpiece. Adjusting can be a big challenge. The more you practice, your adaptation process speeds up. It has not been an easy task to understand myself with the low notes and to control some high notes. It often happens to me that I try to play a high note, and I get another one that I didn't expect, even a higher one. In this process of adapting, it is necessary to be patient and not get discouraged. This is like starting to crawl when you used to walk naturally before. The experience has been wonderful and a great learning experience. This applies to life, there are planned changes and others that come by surprise and unexpectedly. In planned changes we are in control of our decisions. The important thing is not to give up on the things we have planned. In the end the net result is what matters most.

    Como les compartí hace unos días hice un cambio de boquilla de la trompeta. Adaptarse puede ser un gran reto. Mientras más uno práctica, tu proceso de adaptación se acelera. No ha sido tarea fácil entenderme con las notas graves y controlar algunas notas agudas. Suele sucederme que intento tocar una nota alta, y me sale otra que no esperaba, incluso una más alta. En ese proceso de adaptarme es necesario tener paciencia y no desanimarme. Esto es como comenzar a gatear cuando antes solías caminar con naturalidad. La experiencia ha sido maravillosa y de gran aprendizaje. Esto aplica para la vida, hay cambios planificados y otros que llegan de sorpresa y de forma inesperada. En los cambios planificados tenemos el control de nuestras decisiones. Lo importante es no desistir en las cosas que hemos planeado. Al final el resultado neto es lo que más importa.

    This Masquerade

    Are we really happy here with this lonely game we play?
    Looking for words to say
    Searching but not finding understanding anywhere
    We're lost in a masquerade

    Both afraid to say we're just too far away
    From being close together from the start
    We tried to talk it over but the words got in the way
    We're lost inside this lonely game we play

    Thoughts of leaving disappear every time I see your eyes
    No matter how hard I try
    To understand the reasons why we carry on this way
    We're lost in a masquerade
    Both afraid to say we're just to far away
    From being close together from the start
    We tried to talk it over but the words got in the way
    We're lost inside this lonely game we play

    Thoughts of leaving disappear every time I see your eyes
    No matter how hard I try
    To understand the reasons why we carry on this way
    We're lost in a masquerade
    Wohoho, in a masquerade
