Hi @siomarasalmeron, thanks for the comment. I've never been to Venezuela but have been curious about the Antonio Lauro Vals which I played some when I used to study classical guitar here in Malaysia.

Well said, it's a very big difference to do music as a part of life and to do music as a means of making a living. The dynamics I feel is very different as well as the kind of thinking, planning and work needed to make it happen.

I have a lot of friends working in music all around the world & it doesn't seem to be easy anywhere really - it takes work and an understanding of your skills + what the market needs.

Thanks again for commenting and taking time to write a thoughful comment.
