Un saludo a todos los Hive amigos que visitan mi blog.
Hoy les traigo una nueva interpretación de flauta dulce, en este caso, un cover de la canción "El sonido del silencio" e interpretada originalmente por Simon & Garfunkel
La historia verídica de esta canción habla de un niño pobre, un estadounidense, de Búfalo, Estado de NY que gana una beca para la Universidad de Columbia.
Allí, se hace amigo de un chico que terminó convirtiéndose en un gran amigo y en su compañero de cuarto o pieza.
Pero en su primer año de universidad, viendo un partido de béisbol, de repente, de la nada, se quedó ciego.
El médico dijo que era conjuntivitis y que pasaría. Pero, no desapareció, fue una catarata que le había arruinado los nervios ópticos.
El chico se quedó ciego, se deprimió, abandonó la escuela y regresó a su tierra natal.
Este amigo, un compañero de cuarto, fue allí, hasta su casa y lo convenció de que regresara a la Universidad.
El amigo le dijo: la oscuridad te acompañará y yo seré tu oscuridad.
El amigo empezó a ayudarlo, en todo y un poco más de lo que podía, le leyó los exámenes, los libros, todo.
Este ciego terminó con una licenciatura en derecho, y luego una maestría de Harvard y un doctorado de Oxford.
Al poco tiempo, se convirtió en un abogado de gran prestigio y se convirtió en consejero de la Casa Blanca.
Trabajó asesorando a presidentes estadounidenses como Gerald Ford y Jimmy Carter.
Esta hermosa historia de superación, de dificultades extremas, muestra la calidad de persona y el valor de una verdadera amistad.
Es la vida de SANDY GREENBERG.
Pero retrocediendo en el tiempo, en 1964, el compañero de cuarto que lo ayudó a graduarse le pidió prestado 400 dólares a Sandy. Necesitaba el dinero para lanzar un disco. Sandy le prestó el dinero.
•El disco fue lanzado en 1964, pero no tuvo mucho éxito.
•Aun así, una de las canciones se convirtió en la más tocada del año.
Era la canción que escribió el compañero de cuarto, Arthur Ira Garfunkel, conocido como Art Garfunkel, en honor a su amigo Sandy Greenberg, una canción que todos conocen, pero creo que, como yo, nadie conocía la historia detrás de la letra.
•Escuchar música conociendo la historia tiene otro significado.
Esta versión, cantada por Art, en dúo con Paul Frederic Simón, conocido como el dúo: Simon & Garfunkel. Les entrego acompañando éste breve escrito.
Ahora escuchen la canción y disfrútenla.
Greetings to all the Hive friends who visit my blog.
Today I bring you a new recorder performance, in this case, a cover of the song "The Sound of Silence" originally performed by Simon & Garfunkel.
The true story of this song is about a poor kid, an American, from Buffalo, NY who wins a scholarship to Columbia University.
There, he befriends a boy who ends up becoming a great friend and his roommate or roommate.
But in his freshman year of college, watching a baseball game, he suddenly, out of nowhere, went blind.
The doctor said it was conjunctivitis and it would pass. But, it didn't go away, it was a cataract that had ruined his optic nerves.
The boy went blind, became depressed, dropped out of school and returned to his homeland.
This friend, a roommate, went there, to his home and convinced him to go back to college.
The friend told him: darkness will accompany you and I will be your darkness.
The friend began to help him, in everything and a little more than he could, he read him the exams, the books, everything.
This blind man ended up with a law degree, and then a master's degree from Harvard and a doctorate from Oxford.
Before long, he became a highly regarded lawyer and became White House counsel.
He worked advising U.S. presidents such as Gerald Ford and Jimmy Carter.
This beautiful story of overcoming extreme hardship shows the quality of a person and the value of true friendship.
It is the life of SANDY GREENBERG.
But going back in time, in 1964, the roommate who helped him graduate borrowed $400 from Sandy. He needed the money to release a record. Sandy lent him the money.
-The record was released in 1964, but it wasn't a big hit.
-Even so, one of the songs became the most played song of the year.
It was the song that roommate Arthur Ira Garfunkel, known as Art Garfunkel, wrote in honor of his friend Sandy Greenberg, a song that everyone knows, but I don't think, like me, anyone knew the story behind the lyrics.
-Listening to music knowing the story has another meaning.
This version, sung by Art, in duet with Paul Frederic Simon, known as the duo: Simon & Garfunkel. I give you accompanying this brief writing.
Now listen to the song and enjoy it.
Letra / Lyric
Letras
Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
In restless dreams, I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence
And in the naked light, I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never shared
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence
"Fools" said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you"
But my words, like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
Then the sign said, "The words on the prophets are written on the subway walls
In tenement halls"
And whispered in the sound of silence
