  The Virtual choir of “When Neruda Dreamed” singing "Cuando Neruda Soñó", a work written by Santiago Veros.
  The history of the work:
  
  Cuando Neruda Soñó is dedicated to people who want to find inner peace in order to share the best version of oneself with the people around them.
  
  This piece is an adventure of someone who is disconnected from himself and his environment, and undertakes a journey in total solitude, into an immense space carrying all of his uncertainties.

Only when we see ourselves and accept the multiple layers of our embodiment, can we connect with our environment and those around us. When we accept ourselves as we are, perfectly as we are, we can provide the best version of ourselves with the people around us and the world.

When I finished writing the piece, I renamed it "When Neruda Dreamed." The work finally pre...    less
