Juan Manuel presents "An Ocean of Music"
every Sunday afternoon from 3pm to 5pm.

My passion for music, which I would like to share with you, probably dates back to my childhood. I remember that I spent most of my time listening to the Beatles and Tchaikovsky.

I cannot say if classical music is better than "jazz", "pop" or "world" music, as there are no comparisons to be made; but what I can say is that "historical" music is like a vast ocean to be explored, for its richness and abundance of masterworks, some of which awaiting to be rediscovered and enjoyed.

I would like to guide you through "An ocean of music" with a careful selection of pieces reflecting every historical period. I will use a certain sense of chronological order that will allow you to appreciate the evolution of musical aesthetics.

But the real criteria is a "sense" of what beauty is, along with a taste for variety, bringing together different styles. In other words, the proposal is to spend a couple of hours listening to a selection of masterpieces from every historical period in all their diversity and beauty.

This is part of the music I like; I´ll try to do my best and learn with every program. I hope you will enjoy it. I also would like to thank the people in RSA who makes it possible. Thank you for this wonderful opportunity!
