LOS AÑOS 70: EVOLUCIONES Y FUSIONES.

La potencia de los amplificadores, la distorsión de las guitarras, las melodías diluidas entre gritos y un ritmo marcado y repetitivo son algunas de las características de un nuevo rock que aparece en la década de los setenta: el Rock duro, también llamado heavy metal o heavy rock.

La mayoría de los grupos que tocaron este estilo lo fusionó con otros posteriores. Los más destacados fueron Iron Maiden o ACDC

 

 La crisis económica de los años 70 propició el nacimiento de la Música punk. Su lema es el no futuro, y se caracteriza por la búsqueda continua del escándalo, como reacción al desencanto social. Su actitud, su ropa, su estética han tenido muchos adeptos, incluso en la sociedad de hoy en día. En su música se observa la inexistencia de la melodía, los gritos continuos, el ruido y el ritmo vertiginoso. Los Sex Pistols y The Clash son sus más claros exponentes. En España destacó Ramoncín.

La reacción a la estética punk no se hizo esperar. El espectáculo, unido a la buena música y a la mezcla del pop y el rock, además de una excelente puesta en escena y una promoción discográfica, produjo la aparición de cantantes y grupos que no tienen un estilo definido, pero que conectan con los gustos de la sociedad del momento. Es la época de los que muchos llaman rock comercial y otros el glam rock.

  Revive los días de Glam Rock. Esto te llevará de nuevo a los días en que los hombres llevaban zapatos de plataforma, pantalones de satén y brillo de labios. Características de las actuaciones de leyendas del rock de la década de 1970 como David Cassidy, Rod Stewart, T.Rex, Bay City Rollers y muchos más.

HISTORY OF ROCK

 

 

FOR ELISA-BEETHOVEN

(Idea de Jose Ramón-Musiqueando)

FOR ELISA

The year 2020 is the "BEETHOVEN YEAR". On December 16, the 250th anniversary of the birth of this musician is celebrated, and that is why throughout 2020 there are many events to remember him. "PARA ELISA" is one of her best-known works. You have heard it in some television commercial, mobile tone ... and everyone who starts studying piano dares with it.

But who was Elisa really?

They say that, in 1810, Beethoven attended a piano recital where Teresa, a very talented girl who dazzled the entire audience, was going to perform ... until it was time to perform a Beethoven play, which was present there. Nervous, the poor girl was unable to touch her and left the room crying. Beethoven ran after her and, to calm her, promised to compose a sonata for her. The following day, the pianist received a score that over time has become immortal. It was called "For Teresa (memories of April 27, 1810)". It is supposed to have been a confusion of those who studied Beethoven's manuscript, mistaking "Therese" (which was what he supposedly put) for "Elise". Another version of this story claims that Beethoven dedicated the popular song "In Memory of Elisa", referring to Elisabeth Röckel, a soprano with whom the pianist had a good friendship.
