"Hates maths, loves swirls" Violeta Parra

My favorite singer is Violeta Parra, who was born in October, 4 1917 in a small town called San Carlos, located in Region 7 of Chile, his childhood was spent in the field where she started playing guitar when he was nine and his first songs when she was twelve.

In 1952 she married with Luis Cereceda and had a son named Angel and a daughter named Isabel, the same year, following the advice of his brother, Nicanor Parra, Violet decides to travel through rural areas of Chile, to meet and learn about the popular music. These trips were the ones who reached his heart, and became a singer of this type of music, in the constant struggle against the stereotypes, Violeta, recuperated and created  this music forgotten and despised by Chilean people.

I like Violeta because she was a woman how broke all the schemes established by the conservative society of those times. Her versatility it's amazing for me, since it was not only singer but also was a painter, sculptor, embroiderer (working the burlap), writer, in fact she was the first latinoamerican who managed to exhibit their work at the famous Louvre museum, Paris.
When I hear her story or songs, I can see behind them; their strength, perseverance, a passionate woman who fought for his ideals, dreams and emotions.
Unfortunately with grief at not being able to sustain the project to have a center of folk culture (a tent in La Reina), due to the indifference of the Chilean people, and the abandonment the love of her life Gilbert Favre...Violeta Parra  ends with her life in February 1967, died  when she was just 49 years.  
Finally I would like to say that my favourite song is "Run- Run", because is  written from the sorrow, heartbreak and the honesty of a sad woman.  
This song is special for me, because my daughter is learning it. So... when i say "Run-Run" she's start to sing

 "Write as you want, using the rhythms that you go, play different instruments, sit on the piano,  destroys the measure, screaming instead of singing, blowing guitar and percuss the bugle. The song is a bird without flight plan never fly in a straight line. hates math loves swirls"
