Musician and composer Michel Camilo


Michel Camilo is Latin jazz and classical musician, piano player, composer and conductor from Santo Domingo, Republica Domenicana. He studied 13 years in National Conservatory and at 16 years old he became a member of Nacional Symphony Orchestra from his country. He moved to New York, here he studied at Julliard Music School.  One of his greatest compositions is ‘’Why not’’ which won a Grammy recording by Paquito D’ Rivera in one of his albums. All years he plays at the Carnegie Hall, and he is invited to many festivals, like The Newport Jazz Festival, Heineken Jazz Festival and different tours around Japan.


He create a new style called Caribbean Jazz music, and he makes tributes to different composers around the world combining the music from his country and the jazz music. I like this musician, because he is so virtuous, is a beautiful person and humility.

   He is my nephew!!! he is only 5 years old, i think he's gonna be a very smart person, because he said his first word at 2 years old and he learn anything so fast. All my family celebrated his first birthday in a room in Valparaiso, it was everything fully decorated, there was globes, a lot of food, children everywhere and a beatiful cake of Doki,  his favourite TV show. My mother took this picture in his bedroom, he was dressed with a spiderman suit, i remember that i was trying to joking with him and he was laughing all the time. When he travel with his mother to Tomé, we went to the beach, and he was crying, because he don't like the sea water.

My expectations for this semester

Well, my expectations for this semester are: first, try to acquire more knowledge in all my subjects to apply them in other ambit of my music career, specially playing the clarinet, and at the orchestra. I would like to participate in different contests and expand my experiences as a clarinetist to be prepare for future challenges. I'm studying a very important concert inside the clarinet world, called Mozart Clarinet Concerto for A clarinet, is complicated, because it must be played with rigorousness. Also, i have an sports subject called Table tennis which is a interesting sport, because i have to be very concentrate and think about what the opponent will going to do. I'm going to compete in a table tennis tournament, so i have to practice a lot. In general i hope to get better in all my subjects and grow up like a musician.
