Today is the day of the speaker throughout the Dominican Republic, April 18.
What' s the name of the sheath they give to the speakers. Peterl
Vazquez, no, no, no, the other sheath, which is a
statuette. The award, the Golden Microphone Award, yes, not that.
That' s not just the locutory. Well, it' s supposed to
be the announcers, because for you to participate in the award, you have
to be the announcer. But this profession is very young, sixty- eight
years old. It precisely fulfils today because it was earlier when the first test
was given for speakers, et cetera. It wasn' t the Dominican voice,
a sheath like that, that was thirty- two. At that time
they were called announcers, announcers. Yeah, but does that come from English?
Does that come from English? In fact, the word announcer is only
used in Spanish or English. In English not disyoki, announcer, etcetera.
The term of the speaker does not exist in English. I don' t
think it' s just Spanish. No brao how can do anything that has
cradio, but whoever does this as a profession, be it commercial, the
one that you see as commercial, etcetera, you are an announcer. That
one in English is announced. Well, world- wide it' s the
day of the announcer on day three, but in the Dominican Republic it'
s the 18th of April. They tell you that good. That was the
day the first test was given of I don' t know what pod for
the speakers. Alfred Lopez, who writes a blog about etymology. In the
newspaper twenty minutes, he was asked about the origin of the term announcer and
he says that we know as announcer or announcer that person who has the office
to speak on radio or television to give news, to present programs, etcetera.
Just as the real academy defines it. Etymologically it comes from the Latin
locutoris, whose literal meaning was that which speaks and which is formed by the
verb locki. To speak more the suffix thor used to indicate profession or occupation.
The Latin verb locki has also given us many other terms related to this
word as a locutory, a place to speak, whether in a prison,
a telephone booth, a cabin or a radio station. Here there were loudspeakers
before in this company and one side were the technicians of these guys conson Vain
and on the other side there was a small room with microphones and they were
loudspeakers. All the radio stations had the rhythms, they had the loudspeakers,
they had the glass and subway and in the cibao and everywhere, per radio
changed the way they distributed. We also hit all together in the same place.
While speaking, the crazy talker does, the one who speaks much too
eloquently, the one who speaks effectively, electing and stirring or persuading. The
particular way and tone of speaking each circumlocked use of many words to say something
that could have been expressed more briefly in speech. Short talk interlocutor, each
of the people who take part in a dialogue, conversation, conversation between two
or more people, soli and lock or reflection inside or out loud or I
do a lot of soliloquio and ventriloquo. Person who has the art of or
the gift of speaking without looking, who is she who promoted the words they
came out in God Orian. So on the day of the announcer, a
race that is languishing and that is almost dead, career provided occupation as he
wants to call it. Yeah, well, buddy, this good dario aponte
wrote a newspaper article. Look it up today about the announcer, one of
the best voices we' ve ever had. Excellent lawyer, father of a
good friend of ours. He also explains and talks about the history of the
speech, but about the speech here in the Dominican Republic, specifically how it
was started at an already professional level and two regrets the laws that kind of
issues look for it in the newspaper. Today, both radio and this profession
have had the bad luck of having few chroniclers, that is, few people
who write, who do the chronicles in the time of what this profession has
been. I remember I used to edit a magazine from the speaker' s
circle. She' s very good. There I wrote many well- trained
speakers and I read it with some regularity, because my neighbor, Lino Minier,
has already gone out of time, as he collected them at home and
I always went to his house to read magazines and books on radio and communication,
being a teenager and well, one of the men who took care to
write about the radio and leave at least documented much of what I had researched.
A great researcher and a chronicler par excellence. The chronicler par excellence,
of the radio donteo you will see because there has left several books written.
The most complete of all edited it about thirteen, fourteen years ago and I
think you still get poll, but I have it the same. They'
re signed gifts. Many of those books are academic reference. Today in universities,
when you talk or are classic, something that has to do with communication
and speech. But look, there' s a question. There' s
a legend that says a legend if I had called the word, that tells
them that all the speakers are ugly. When I said the speech to me,
they put me in the head, they told me that and they said
good. The thing is, we' re fire. If we were pretty,
we' d be on TV, but we watch TV and watch ugly
people dickheads. What I was taught in school was that the more faith the
face was, the more the individual had more proclivity to have a better voice,
that is, and better voice was kill, then true better you Or
be very particular characteristics in what he calls better you, etcetera. But I
dismantled that when I started to meet Boricua, Cuban and Venezuelan speakers, Venezuelans
and Colombians and Mexicans. There is also a Tiger that here is a voice
that our generation will remember to be called Vaina Gress, John Gress, the
voice of barceló for a long time. Tiger was a good daddy and Mr
Lava was also the one from Ubat Chila de Junivers where he was already I
say you Right, your old but here our friend, now, from this
time, from now modern, our friend and I speak forget who, who,
the friend I am not pussy. He' s got a show there
that' s half a day in hex, that' s your pretty team
and he' s got a rum voice from a mozarrón. To me too
is my friend, the pussy Luisa Angelio, but also, for example,
of my adult adolescence, it is early. He' s reigning, infant,
infant, last looking good. But Rubén Truck, man esta voz,
Rubén Camilo has a very hard- working voice, not a voice wave,
they are microphonic, yes, yes, but very educated, yes, very
educated and has a technique. No. And Ruben Camilo records you up below
and in the middle guy pussy, guy who has tolo tone to you know
it was beautiful, it was no, because Rubén Camilo is already about sixty
- five or seventy years old and too old. He' s old,
yes, yes, yes, well, but then he' s going to
play Roberto Rodriguez, Rodrinico, not ever, Roberto meets the rules that start
a big voice with a hard face, face of macha. Yeah, I
' m the most beautiful old man in this country and the most beautiful voice
in the whole Dominican Republic. Slowest, long and long. Well, but
Roberto Rodriguez three jochi and Roberto, you know, you know what joche Ochi
is passionate about speech, a passionate work of crazy radio and when you sit
down with joche to talk about the best voices in this country, I haven
' t seen. Well, there' s a lot of people Hey,
they must have one of the memorial files in their head of voices that I
didn' t even get through my head. One day speaking to me,
he mentioned a lot of people I knew the voice, but I didn'
t know who it was. I don' t know if it was,
but Hochi gives me the impression from the knowledge he has that it was a
radio broadcast these people who talk radio. He' s a Guarchist radio,
an enthusiast. I was radia to you, they made you clubs. Yeah,
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that kind of thing. What
happens is that Joche did better in the mood and people forgot that it'
s originally Hoche is a announcer. It' s an announcer on made a
lot of radio. Corporán did everything he built on the radio. Corporan'
s story is very interesting. I think one of the most successful stories,
most interesting because they incorporate, which is from Cibao, if I am not
mistaken, He was from Kotoi Corporán, is from Cotuy and was born in
Cotuic Corpora. He arrived here very young in the capital, did everything and
arrived on the radio and on the radio made a career and built a radio
and television emporiompre that, unfortunately, could not have the luck to survive the
time, perhaps as the sacrifice that took him to build it, sold the
radio group what was deceived in the process was made for the marlo business with
a printing press. The television changed, the reality changed and good already the
last years of Corporada were a little difficult, but it does not stop being
a very important page of the history of the communication of the Dominican Republic.
Just like Mr Aracena, who was the founder of Radio Guarachita, perhaps one
of the men with the greatest cultural impact of the last seventy years in the
Dominican Republic, because he helped catapult not only Credio Guarachita had the best speakers
of his time the service of that station, but he worried about a segment
of the population that was ignored, neglected by the media at that time that
were the bases in the social base more of the most dispossessed social class.
To this one he spoke visionaries and he did it very effectively and to the
point that to the present day still the name Guarachita is part of the ode
and the Dominican culture. Totally thanks to all the people who have informed me
that they have congratulated me on this day, thanks to Group moderated by that
great cheque and that great separation that we do not make waiting for the faces,
the only salchista that always hempre to jueba. A clear question, because
it has to do with what Witter said, what has been the speaker you
liked the most and that, when you met him, you thought it was
uglier than the devil. Don' t put me on the list. It
' s just that I' ve always been clear. Hey.
