One of the most representative figures of the culture in Mexico It is without a doubt the flute player Horacio Francoconsidered one of the most renowned concert performers of his instrument worldwide, said in an interview that his agenda is full for the rest of the year.
Also a prominent athlete, Horacio gave this interview while he was heading to bicycle to record a video with Korean KL Joon, Since their time is very limited by everything that their presentations and conferences entail, this is the reason for this talk:
“I have many plans fortunately, because during the pandemic it was like a fair for all of us, so now there are a lot of concerts coming up; this Saturday I was part of the celebrations for the seventh anniversary of the El Rule Cultural Center. I will continue with another private concert and a motivational conference“, the flute player told this medium.
Franco will later travel to Zacatecasbut in Leon, Guanajuato, will have the honor, he says, of inaugurating the first National Recorder Festival organized by Gabriela Figueroa, one of her former students, where she will also offer a master class.
At the invitation of the Mexican Embassy in the Vatican, he will take part in a series of cultural events in Rome.
Upon his return to Mexico, he will perform at the International Cervantino Festival as a soloist of the “Carlos Chávez” Youth Symphony Orchestra and in November he will premiere a concert with the Bellas Artes Chamber Orchestra, and another one with the Campeche Symphony.
“The pandemic left a positive mark on us, in the sense that the public appreciated live concerts because they realized that they are irreplaceable due to the artist’s interaction with the public,” he said.
BUDGETS FOR THE POOREST
Horacio Franco He is, to date, one of the most emblematic musicians of our time for his social commitment, through music, in addition to knowing the cultural environment of Mexico of which he has been a protagonist.
When questioned about the role played by the federal government In this area, he stated that “in general, in this six-year term, there was great support”, especially for the arts. community and natives.
“He helped precisely the poorest communities, the most remote and the most unlikely places that are full of deficiencies nestled in the mountains, in Guerrero, as well as in southern Mexico with what they called Cultural Seedbeds with workshops on music, dance, theatre, choirs, circus, textiles and even literature that mainly benefit children who, without knowing it, have a high artistic level.
“They were joined by master craftsmen, and there was also a lot of restoration of monuments. Those who suffered a lot were the independent artists. because there was a huge lack of funding and the little that there was was given to those who have the least and that is truly very praiseworthy, because we had never seen the government’s efforts really focused on this type of cultural population, snatching children and young people from the clutches of drug trafficking, so I just wonder why they didn’t do it before,” he added.
That was the moment suitable to find out what their perception was regarding the rumor that the senator Susana Harp may direct the federal Ministry of Culture:
“He has played a very important role in the Senate approving and enacting laws, some proposals were not accepted for artistic and cultural ethnic minorities, so I see it as a good prospect for the future,” concluded the renowned flutist Horacio Franco.
