Vinicio Haro, Flute Student in the Music
Access Project
Vinicio usually discovers new recordings through "other people's suggestions
or recommendations. Sometimes I discover new artists through pieces
that I might be playing in my ensembles, and then go out to look for
the recording." Vinicio listens to all types of music, "I like
classical music (especially from the 1800's to present day), all types
of jazz including blues, Latin, Afro-Cuban, be-bop, standards, big band
and ballads. I also enjoy music such as the tangos of Spain and
Argentina and modern day music like rock and R&B. I am drawn
to these types of music because they relate to what I am doing in life
and they are unique in their own way."
In his iPod Vinicio currently has "a melting pot of my favorite songs/pieces
in all genres. I do not have a complete album in my iPod." His
iPod includes a wide range of artists/composers including Bach, Chopin,
Piazzolla, Billy Joel, Audioslave, and Shakira. |
