You have the power - the power of self expression ✊. Don't ever underestimate your ability. 🙏 🎶 🎶 🎶 . . Just as I use my hands to play and as my medium of expression for "that which cannot be put into words and that which cannot remain silent" (Victor Hugo), you can also utilise self expression in your own, unique way, as you express your right to remain unsilent in the midst of a society of injustice and oppression. . . Utilize o seu poder de se expressar. Você também pode. 😙 https://www.instagram.com/p/CBgA1NuBS9k/?igshid=1mf0oi8e3wykf

Literally had to hold in my stomach for this one! 😂 Try doing the action movements with your hands (just like in the video) lol! 😂 Ok, so this is the 'Castle Theme' (Super Mario Bros.) - a song request🎶 actually - and the one I was talking about in my last post that (to me) had needed some extra grooming before I could post. 😁 . . . Hope you enjoy 💗📺 . . . -- . . Literalmente tive que segurar a barriga pra tocar essa! 😂 Tente fazer o movimento com as mãos (exatamente como no vídeo) rs! 😂 Então, esse é o 'Tema do Castelo' (Super Mario Bros.) - mais um pedido de música🎶 na vdd - e aquela da qual estava falando na minha última postagem que (pra mim) precisava ser moldada antes de postar. 😁 . . . Espero que se disfrute 💛📺 @solunacaribe (at Trinidad, West Indies) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBYkvT2ng6S/?igshid=4rwpvt94odvo

Picked up this song🎶 yesterday and decided to record it while still finalising the other one that I was going to post. (*The other one is quite challenging/difficult and still needs some grooming 😞 I think you'll like it though, so look out for that 😉.) . . . Peguei essa música ontem e resolvi gravá-la enquanto eu ainda esteja finalizando a outra que ia postar. (*A outra é um desafio / bastante difícil e ainda precisa ser moldada 😞 Mas acho que você vai gostar, então, aguarde 😉.) . . . Now, this song "Señorita" (by Camila Cabello & Shawn Mendes) I thought was going to be "easy enough" to learn right away! 😂 Until I found myself, not "tongue tied", but "brain tied" with all those harmonies (double notes) one after the other. Looked easy, but 🙈... Anyway, with more time, I would have perfected it a lot more 😞 . . ✌💛 . . Agora, essa música "Señorita" (de Camila Cabello & Shawn Mendes) eu pensei que fosse ser "fácil o suficiente" para aprender logo de vez! 😂 Até que deu nó na cabeça com todas as harmonias (notas duplas) uma depois da outra. Parecia fácil, mas 🙈....Mas então, com mais tempo, teria aperfeiçoado mais a música 😞 . . ✌💚 (at Trinidad and Tobago) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBTLDheHdoj/?igshid=dfkgo0z5iuev

Ok, so here is it!🙌 The Mission Impossible movie theme I was talking about in my •stories• 😄❤ So who won? I guess BOTH sides lol because there is also a ♣ game version ♣ of Mission Impossible with the same theme song. 😂🎮 But still, how did the majority manage to 'read my mind' that I was going to post a song based initially on a movie!! 😱 😂 Very interesting and congratulations 🎉👏 . . . 🎬 By the way, this is my first 'Pan and Pandeiro' video. It takes a little longer to edit and sync up properly and I know I still have to work on it. But don't worry! There will be more videos like these on my feed. 😉 Hope you still liked it though..💙 . . . 🕛 Oh, and one other thing: please pardon the time of my upload here, but I wish my day had gone as planned. 😕 I'm still happy though that here in Trinidad it's still before midnight and that I was still able to post the video by today like I said in my stories. 🙌 . . . Enjoy your weekend 😙 (at Trinidad and Tobago) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAO-l3sBWAE/?igshid=1i57eizcgw96s

We're you ever addicted to playing 'Tetris'? 🎮 Well I was! Lol 😄 Here I'm playing the original Tetris theme song on the steelpan (tambor de aço). 💕 By the way, did you know that this theme actually comes from a classic Russian folk song called "Korobeiniki"? ☺🎶 . . Enjoy your day 💙 and let me know what other song you would like to hear me play/sing, etc.! 🎤 . . . I'm preparing your song requests! 😉 . . . @tetris_official @_russian_songs @sega @playstation @marvel @gamestop @atari @thegameawards (at Trinidad, West Indies) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_5bjR7DE0n/?igshid=vt3t25zkfv7c

Mexican Ipanema? 💕🎩😂 Haha...This is 'Girl from Ipanema' by the classic Brazilian bossa nova artiste - Antônio Carlos Jobim. 🎶 Another song request fulfilled 🙌 🎥🔴 Full 2-minute video on my YouTube channel under the playlist category "Brazilian". Link in my bio 👆 @solunacaribe **** Fun facts 🌸💬: Ipanema is a district located in the southern state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. It's where "the girl" came from. 😂 🌸🎵Bossa nova and jazz are not the same, contrary to popular opinion. Bossa is rooted in jazz however. It is like differentiating samba from bossa nova or blues from jazz. They are all different styles of music. 🌸🎵Now, both jazz and blues are like siblings, since they both originated around the late 19th - early 20th centuries in Southern United States (in places such as Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia and "The Carolinas": North and South Carolina). 🌸🎵Bossa nova (or "new wave" / "new sound"), now, is like their younger cousin from Brazil. What makes bossa nova different is that it mixes the Rio de Janeiro version of samba [°there are many types of samba☺°] with American jazz (...and remember that jazz and blues are intertwined 🎶✌). 🌸🎵Now, all the music genres mentioned (bossa nova, samba, jazz and blues) are rooted in West African music culture and expression that came about in their respective countries and regions as a post-slavery alternative to musical expression. 🌸🎵At the same time (around the late 19th - early 20th centuries) the steelpan (or steeldrum, as many call it) also originated in Trinidad and Tobago with the same baseline of the post-slavery search for alternative forms of musical expression (other than traditional drums). 🔹Blues + jazz = African-American forms of musical expression 🔹Bossa nova + samba = Afro-Brazilian forms of musical expression 🔹Steelpan, calypso, limbo (a dance form) = Afro-Caribbean (specifically Afro-Trinidadian) forms of musical expression ...plus there is also reggae that is a part of the Afro-Caribbean music community (specifically Afro-Jamaican). Ok, so that's it for today's music history lesson! 😂😙 @solunacaribe (at Cozumel Mexico) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_SckDwlAEt/?igshid=dpzfg2dtcufr

~UNDERWATER Theme~🐟🌊🐠 ° {•Super Mario Bros.•} ❤ ●Ok, so I just played this off the top of my head from what I remembered from back in the day, and then when I listened to a sample of the real tune, I realised it was faster ⏩ and that I may have played 1 or 2 wrong notes 😂.
