¿Qué me aportan los cantos?
Antes de iniciar una sesión de cantos me invade una sensación de quietud, de calma. Esta sensación de sosiego, de tranquilidad, pero al mismo tiempo de fortaleza permanece después.

Empezó el confinamiento y con él el miedo a contagiarme, la incertidumbre por el futuro y la tristeza por lo que estaba […]
