Jorge Segovia 2A. Does Art have to be beautiful? the answer is " No" if you are listening to Tom Waits, a wonderful musician who is only committed to art and despises the music bussines. His songs are a punch in the stomach and only occasionally filled with melancholy. Here you are an example.

Andalusian gipsy singing.Today we are going to speak about ¨Camarón de la Isla¨, a famous Spanish singer who was the best flamenco singer in Andalusia and the world. His real name real was ¨Jose Monje Cruz¨, he was from San Fernando, Cádiz (South Spain). He died in Barcelona by a serious disease. Camarón married Dolores Montoya, whose nickname is ¨La Chispa¨ and had four children.This artist began to sing when he was five years old because he had to help his parents. If his family hadn´t been so poor he wouldn´t have had to sing so early. Probably, because of it, he was bigger and brighter than other singers. Camarón recorded 17 discs, but after his death his family published 17 discs more. The best disc is/was Soy Gitano, which was the disc that sold better among all flamenco discs in Andalusia.Today, ¨Camarón de la Isla¨ is a legend for a lot of people. moreover, his live has been taken to the cinema. Nowadays, in Cádiz, a museum of Camarón is being built in a famous place which is known as ¨ La Venta Vargas¨.
I hope that you like this small biography. Here, I uploaded a link so you can listen to ¨Camarón de la Isla ¨ musicrockpop-Camaron What famous singer do you prefer?
MIKE OLDFIELD Mike Oldfield is a British musician who was born in 1953. He writes his own songs and he plays many different kinds of instruments. He has published thirty six compac discs along his music career. At present, his music is considered a kind of “New Age” but many songs are classics of the eighties like “Family Man, ”, Tricks of the Light or “ To France”. Some people think that this music is only instrumental, but Mike Oldfield has many songs which are sang by different singers like: Bonnie Tyler, Maggie Reilly or Pepsi Demacque. In fact, each of Mike Oldfield´s albums is different. If you want to listen celtic music,you will have to listen to his album: “The Voyager” which contains the famous song “Women of Ireland” of “The song of the Sun” a versión of the “Luar na Lubre´s” song (a Galicia´s folk music group), “O son do ar”.Mike Oldfield´s most important invention wereTubular bells which are instruments that were in churchs and cathedrals, but Mike Oldfield used that sound for this album “Tubular Bells” which was his first album and his first success in 1973. I´m sure that you know one of his most famous songs; these songs appear in a film: “The Exorcist”. It´s “Tubular Bells”.
APOCALYPTICA
Don´t scare! Many people fright when they listen this name; Apocalyptica is one of my favourite music group; probably, you think that this group may be a ghotic or even an evil group, but one way or another you are mistaken! Apocalyptica is a Finnish group that it was created by four cellist teachers who loved the Metallica´s song, and they used to play their songs, because of, this first album was: “Plays Metallica by Four Cellos”; in this album they play the most famous Metallica´s song like “Master of puppets” or “Nothing else matters” only with their cellos. Years later they had problems and one of the members left the group, although when they have to go to any concert, there is a cellist who goes with them but really, the group nowadays has three cellos; moreover, they tried to change the style music, only instrumental at the beginning, so they introduced more instruments like the drums or the piano; you should watch this video: “No education”. There are some songs which are singed by different singers too, for example, “Bittersweet” or “Faraway vol. 2”, however this last song was composed without the voice in the album “Reflections” (“Faraway”), but then, they put it in the album “The life burns”.
