Gustavo Hernández is a talented drums player from the contemporary performance (production concentration) master's degree program whose culminating experience consisted on writing music to accompany Uruguayan Eduardo Galeano's best known poems. "El Mundo" takes us to an intimate, deep place where the drums and the bass set the perfect foundations for the harmonic development of the piece and, ultimately, its lyrics.

The recording session took place in April 25, 2016. Both audio and video were recorded during the same session.

EL MUNDO

Un hombre del pueblo de Neguá,
Pudo subir al alto cielo
Y a la vuelta, contó
He contemplado desde arriba

Un hombre del pueblo de Neguá
Pudo subir al alto cielo
Y a la vuelta, contó
He contemplado desde arriba

La vida humana, desde arriba, la vida
La vida humana, desde arriba, arriba la vida

El mundo es eso, reveló
Un montón de gente
Un mar de fueguitos

Cada persona brilla
Con su luz propia,
Entre todas las demás

No hay dos fuegos iguales
Hay fuegos chicos y grandes
Y fuegos de todos los colores

Hay gente de fuego sereno
Que ni se entera del viento,
Y gente de fuego loco
Que llena el aire de chispas

Algunos fuegos, fuegos bobos
No alumbran ni queman
Pero otros arden la vida que se acerca

Se enciende
Se enciende
