The students witnessed a rehearsal by the Universidad de La Serena Symphony Orchestra and attended a talk given by the composer and academic, Fernando Guede.

The students of Architecture Workshop I, led by academics Álvaro Saavedra and Alejandro Orellana, participated in a series of activities together with academics from the ULS Music Department.

During the morning, they were received by the University of La Serena Symphony Orchestra, in the general rehearsal of their VI Season Concert “Aires De España”, under the direction of the North American David Handel. The participation of the Architecture students in the rehearsal, framed in the didactic activities of the subject, had the purpose of strengthening the students' development of observation through an acoustic-visual sensory experience.

During the afternoon, the students attended a talk given by the composer Fernando Guede, an academic from the Department of Music. On this occasion, Professor Guede presented some of his compositional works, explained the ancient links between architecture and music, and delved into the introspective dimension of the creative process.

For professors Saavedra and Orellana, in addition to the cultural contribution to the training of students, “these activities represent a great opportunity to link with related disciplines within the university community, with the institutional will to deepen ties between academic units.”
