absolute

Derived from Latin absolutus, the notion of absolute is used to identify what is independent, unlimited and that does not result in midpoints. Something absolute exists by itself and is characterized by being whole, complete and totalas it is unconditioned.

When a opinion or judgment is described as absolute, for example, they stand out for being final, decisive and categorical. A absolute magnitude, on the other hand, it is one that is calculated from a value zero, which actually represents the lack of the magnitude in question.

As in these examples, the word absolute applies to various terms. A absolute numeral adjective, in this framework, identifies a adjective cardinal; on the other hand, a absolute liquid chemical It has the peculiarity of lacking water and being free of impurities.

In metaphysics, absolute It is that which is by itself (that is, it is not subject to anything since it has no relation to another reality).

On math, the absolute value of a real number It consists of its numerical value but stripped of its respective sign. For example: 5 is the absolute value of 5 and of -5.

Finally, we can mention that the absolute monarchy It is a form of government of the absolutism, in which the division of powers is not contemplated and authority is exercised by a single person. The monarch of this regime occupies his throne for life and holds hereditary power (that is, when he dies, his son will take his place).

Absolute hearing

This word is often related to the concept of absolute pitch, which indicates such knowledge of the sounds that allows you to identify the names of the notes just by listening to them, as well as playing them without the need for a guide. As with many other special abilities, it is difficult to determine if it is something that can be learned or an innate matter. On the other hand, there are people who soon after beginning their musical studies begin to demonstrate this facility, while great artists with decades-long careers depend on an instrument to get on a scale.

The universe Music is very broad and diverse, and in it coexist people who practice many hours a day, or who study for years before giving their first recital, with others who deny technique and discipline. The concept of a pianist, singer or even violinist can take many different forms, depending on the style to which they dedicate themselves, the way they play the instrument, the type of education they have received, and so on. However, any artist, be it a scholar or a raw natural talent, can have perfect pitch.

Absolute soprano

Opera singers are often related to whimsical divas who wear expensive coats and travel by limousine. It is also common to associate them with excess weight. And all this may be true in some cases, as for any other type of person; but the truth behind you professionals is that they spend many years perfecting their voices and studying music theory. Reading sheet music is much more than just recognizing the melodies printed on them; the true musician is able to see the message that the composer tried to communicate, the reason why he chose one tonality or another, the possible sources of inspiration that prompted him to put the notes together in that particular way.

After this observation process, aided in the best of cases by intuition and musicality natural in each person, the moment of execution arrives. And, once again, a good soprano is much more than someone with a rank long vowel; in fact the extension of the voice is, in part, a product of study and practice. It will be the fidelity with which you reproduce the most complex passages, the good taste with which you use the different intensities, the control you have over the rhythm changes, and the tuning, among many other parameters, that people will evaluate to form their own image Of the singer.

There is no greater qualification in the Opera than that of absolute soprano. It indicates that, according to the perception of the public and the musicians who have worked with her, she is a woman capable of covering works written for any kind of voice, such as being dramatic, lyrical or coloratura. The concept also usually refers to the vocal extension, denoting the coexistence of all types of strings: soprano, mezzo-soprano and alto. In both cases, it is an oversized idea of ​​an artist, a product of the fanaticism, since the voice is the most complex and varied instrument and it would be impossible for a single person to meet all the characteristics and skills.
