confess a secret a small
secret
I am a romantic
I do not know if of the many of the few that
they stay but I am romantic is still not
romantic that I still believe in education
I absolutely believe in education
I would even say that education is capable
to absolutely transform the world and
that we have reached where we are
thanks to education
it is assumed that things had to
work because that’s why we’ve been
working for time
There are times when you are surprised by life and not
they work like a wait rates educated
well in network words pierre the
famous speaker and French politician says
that the secret of freedom lies in
educating people is not bad phrase
It’s a bad way to understand education
but following my romantic position
I would tell them that I do not believe in an education
anyone
I believe in that education that is capable
to develop the human being 100% by
Inside and out
an education that is worth what
cognitive education where
emotional the social have the same weight
at least that the cognitive an education
to develop people a hundred
hundred would say our good friend Don
Quixote that can not be absent in this room
an education for the soul
Or as our friend sancho one
education for the tummy
both absolutely necessary
I’m going to talk to you about another romantic
an American composer john cage who
He spent a large part of his life looking for
silence beautiful search came to both
love the silence that composed a work
a work for piano in three movements
where the pianist did not touch the room
he sounded he just listened in his search
of silence
John Cage knew there was a room in the
fully armored nasa where no
sound could enter
eureka I can hear the silence and gave
the necessary permits and entered the
living room
what was your surprise when inside the
room had sounds unlikely thing thing
impossible because I knew it
later he learned that those two
sounds were his
the heart and blood circulation
they marked a low sound and the system
nervous marked a shrill sound so
so much John Cage tells us that all the
human beings are masters all beings
humans are masters even before they are born
another great romantic of the last century
Mr. alive is still home garnett who
in 1983 he presented he published his theory about
the multiple intelligences in which
tells us about the capacity we have
humans to adapt to this
environment that surrounds us and that same
capacity has never been better
said to create various structures of
brain that we could very well say in
your own words that are
intelligences different intelligences
speaks of a mathematical intelligence
of linguistic intelligence and a
Kinetic-body intelligence
visuospatial negligence from here to
here neither intrapersonal intelligence or
interpersonal
my ecological intelligence and they know which
is what is the first intelligence of the
that speaks gardner the intelligence
musical
according to gartner all human beings
we have a musical intelligence
another thing is that then we’re going to do
professional musicians or not what happens
what are we going to do mathematics
professionals or not or athletes
professionals or not but we all have
that ability
we all have that intelligence for the
Lord Gardner all human brains
they are gifted to make music
I could even add them and that’s a
personal question of my own experience
in the work that I’m doing to
diary that music intelligence
musical is the only one that brings all
the other intelligences
I do not want them to understand it as a
attack just a real action
if we make music and when I say we do
music is making music
Mathematical intelligence is put in
marching music and mathematics are
absolutely related know
rhythmic harmonies physical phenomenon
harmonic speeds of time that
we make music what language is
absolutely related meaning and
significant keys or the one that the efa
black eighth note held sun major yes
we make music what the body kinetic is
essential although only before
have to use the lungs which
the vocal cords and also keep
standing with which is also necessary
the intrapersonal that I am as a musician
interpersonal that is what we are
we as an orchestra are also there
even the ecological could be said if
we do a percussion concert
recycled music contains all the
other intelligences with which
we could say that when we do
music all the intelligences are put
underway and we promote them therefore
in that case I add the following sentence
all human beings are musicians
in the words of Jordi and you a
Spanish neurologist, very important musician
and that is working a lot and the
investigation of the relationship between
music and science tells us that music
it is considered a powerful stimulus
sensorial in which all are reflected and
each of the dimensions of being
human experiential emotional physics and
cognitive all
now I’m going to talk to you in that case about
a romantic lady mari carmen kings of
monte in January 2012 found a one
reviewed in a newspaper that said the
key music of school success
I thought here what a good journalist that
has been able to write this and that
above you have been allowed to publish the
key music of school success and in that
article we were talking about a thesis
PhD in Valencia in the
University of Valencia by Dona Mari
carmen kings of the mount a work of
field made with elementary students
Specifically 4,300 of all ages
from first to sixth grade in the
18 different regions of the community
Valencian
that doctoral thesis has a series of
conclusions I’m just going to talk to you
of one and a conclusion in data from those
4 thousand 300 boys and girls who were
interviewed that were evaluated that
somehow his file was known
academic
Interestingly almost 6 percent
I studied music after school I went to
conservatory or went to the school of
music or played in a band almost 6%
the 59
they know how many boys and girls approved
all the subjects of that school
group 99 percent
there are only two ways one of two or the
music our form not only go the
good ones
in any case if I go to school
of music after school already assured me
who feels 99% that he’s going to try it
everything except that in those centers
education for the use of the subject matter
it is happening is transforming the
student in some way therefore
doña mari carmen reyes what she poses is
that music is a wonderful
tool to combat
school failure
those are the data there is the thesis
I could also tell you about another
project in that case similar in in
chile in the city of antofagasta
directed by doña marcela lópez uribe
person who queue that have known
I was lucky to work with her and
in which he is already in the university of
antofagasta but at the same time has a
social reintegration project through
of music in the school of 56 spain
she takes the children from the villages the
includes inside the school and then they
gives specific music classes and
He talks about working with these children to
break the chains of poverty
his illusion that those children that is
taking out of the camps in the area
most marginal of antofagasta ends
being his students at the university
I could also work with them in this case
my own experience in the project
creates soundtrack that this city also
has a lot to tell about it that a
soundtrack is a project of
educational innovation that we’re going
doing in primary schools and
secondary in which we started 20
teachers and 1,500 children and to this day
We are more than 90 teachers and almost
20,000 children working in music
as a tool of change
methodological and educational change
the kids
that project allowed us to meet in
several times one of them here in
Albacete in the congress palace and
exhibitions in which 900 teenagers
they came together to make music together without
problems without social differences
without unified cognitive differences
by a common tool music
happy in the stalls
listening to your happy classmates
on stage showing his work
to the classmates and that when finished
the event see all the teachers
on stage and each of the
groups chanting their teacher’s name
or teacher made the skin look
of hen chicks that a Sunday by
the night they wrote in a public tweet
there’s nothing better than having music
first hour
yes it is true that one of the premises
important in this project in creates
soundtrack is the empiricism that I want
to say with that he evidently spoke
of a specific music a music in
the one that we have to make music
therefore the way to learn to
making music is making music
I do not believe in the exclusive theoretical part
but I just think that the process in the
that we are learning by making music
Of course I am a musician and you will go
Of course he says all this because he is a musician
I assure you not to be an astronaut and
I had read
I can assure you that I would be saying
the same things that not all
the projects that I am working
We are managing kids that car
self-management in school entrepreneurship
the group oa the music school and
academy or the mbit and school group
of music of torrelavega
They are groups of kids that we are
working in a transversal way with the
music not to make musicians
I think that is what I would like
be very clear I do not talk about the
music to make musicians talked about the
music to enjoy music and
especially to make them better
people
music for all that music is
become a core tool a
transversal tool in a
tool that changes us inside and
outside
regardless of what tomorrow we are
what we are
as these projects in goa as
the piti with the project by crosses that
we made in the Valencian community
once a year in summer
music becomes the backbone that
It serves to bring together all the others and
that transforms these kids this
way inside and out and
transforms his way of understanding the world
to relate how interesting it would be
that our politicians made music
together the same there were not so many
problems
the music has a problem that there is
play chukkers together
also when a good soloist forgive
soloist then stop doing it and it’s not
nothing
many things that we learn when
we are making music and not for that
we have to be musicians
professionals
you also have to talk about another and another
romantic in this case the work the kingdom
who works at the University of
mcmaster in canada a neurologist and
psychologist who says the following when
a person makes music and returns to
process involved when a person does
music listen beyle the score
interprets is excited remembers imagina
controls his motor skills and also anticipates
what is going to sound all that makes a
musician but all that makes a person
who makes music
good latin music the same no
curiously researched that each of
those actions is in one part
different from the brain therefore we
create a template in which when a
person makes music the visual cortex and
the auditory cortex start up
the tactile sensory cortex also the
motor cortex and the prefrontal cortex
also the cerebellum the basal ganglia
the drill area where the language is
the clinical systems where the
emotions the hippocampus memory
short term and the parietal lobes yes
they have counted them are eleven parts of
brain that are put to work
at the same time and assured that neither cabral
sun sets in motion so many parts of the
brain for her the music becomes
in a great neuronal accelerator
if we approach another romantic the
German figure
miller karate works at the university
from hannover
he tells us he has done research in
the one that watches and attentive to the sequence
temporary with a few seconds of practice
musical with a few seconds of practice
musical are enough to improve the
neuronal connectivity
if we are working by touching some
days increases the size and number of
blessed if we stayed a few weeks the
axonal realization is reinforced and
we throw ourselves months or even years
we are able to change even up
the neuronal capitalization what
allows a better feeding of everything
the brain what are we talking about
gentlemen, we did not want to look for a
education that was one hundred percent
developing the human being
I can tell you that it is precisely
this point of sr
the miller poster is my point of work
right now in musikene top center
of Basque country music I’m not
working now on whatever it is doing
educational neuroplasticity with my
senior students are trying
get it in the least time
get the best results because
every time we understand better how it works
the brain and it’s not a matter of
study more a matter of studying
well we work neuroplasticity to
get in this case the best
musicians possible and with the minimum
effort
based on which processes
musical tsonga fap that are capable of
absolutely transform the brain
in that case of professional musicians who
I’ve told you before that it transforms the
brain of anyone
I would end with 3
why is it in this country?
to music education
why it is about whether in this country
musical educators and why are they
depriving our children of their children and
a fundamental tool against
school failure
remember we do not make music because we are
humans but we are human because
we make music
[Applause]
