Logra su meta: egresar de Berklee El NORTE, By Luis Raul Lopez, 01/25/15 ENGLISH TRANSLATION
During almost 15 years, Alejandro Ramirez Cisneros lived with one goal in mind,
study at Berklee College of Music. Today after accomplishing a dual major from the best
music school in the world, his goal has changed; his goal now is to coach and mentor
others to find their call in life.
The 28-year-old young men, who in last May graduated from Music Production
and Engineering and Film Scoring, came back to Monterey for few days to give
conferences and motivational speeches in different venues like the Tecnológico de
Monterrey, Police of Monterrey and different churches.
Alejandro currently is working as a photographer, lead audio engineer,
videographer and graphic designer for Berklee College of Music, where is famous for it’s
distinguishable alumni, like Juan Luis Guerra, Diana Krall, Esperanza Spalding, and Pat
Metheny.
After receiving a revelation when we was 13 years old he started singing and
playing guitar, he self-thought how to play the instrument, until one day he knew that he
had to get into the prestigious school.
“I asked to my private instructor, where is the best place to study music? And he
answered, there’s a place in Boston called Berklee, but I don’t think you can make it, it’s
very expensive and almost impossible to get accepted. Even friends and colleagues told
him that it would be almost impossible to make it to Berklee. 10 years after he set his
goal, and after studying high school at the Universidad de Monterrey, and Mass
Communication in the Tecnológico de Monterrey and also after getting his diploma from
the Escuela Superior de Musica y Danza de Monterrey, the musician made the big leap
to Boston.

Even though it was his dream to get there, it was in his first semester that he
realized that studying at this school was not easy, the competitive level was very high,
and the demanding classes and curriculum made everybody falling into very intense
stress.
“You have to work really focus, I arrived to Berklee at 25 years old with already
two degrees, but there are 17 year old kids that they been in the road for years, and they
are monstrous musicians, that makes the environment very competitive, and kind of
difficult”, explains.
In order for him to change that feeling, the “regiomontano” founded in the year
2011 “The Ubuntu Family”, formed with the intention of offering the students the
opportunity of having a family oriented relationships, rather than just academic
relationships.
At the beginning the group had few members where they were offered a space to
meet, today there are almost 300 members from Berklee, Harvard and MIT.
At the same time Alejandro inside the group, his purpose is also to awaken the
artistic vocation in young students, like the case of “Bence Peter” from Hungary, who
achieved the world record Guinness, becoming the fastest piano player in the world.
“He was a very shy person, who didn’t want to show himself as a piano player,
but one day I told him, very few people from your country have the opportunity to study
here, why are you here? That awoke him and today it’s a great pianist”, Alejandro
comments.
“It made me really happy because his success is also my success”. Besides his
motivational speeches and music production, work that he does regularly in Boston,
Ramirez Cisneros keeps going with his work as a lead composer in film protects,
television and video.

About “EL NORTE” www.elnorte.com
The newspaper Reforma was founded in 1993 as a branch of the newspaper Monterrey El NORTE, with headquarters in the city of Monterrey. Reform was the first news group that separated its retail division of the publishing division. This allowed a great independence in journalism, so that their journalists felt helped to avoid the temptation to write notes that favor advertisers.
When founded, on November 20, the newspaper union’s pressured news stands to be sold that day. But November 20 is a holiday in not working and opposed this, so that the newspaper had to be sold on the streets by the same journalists, executives and celebrities as a proposal, which saw a boycott.
Reform totally changed his method of distribution, because of its independence of unions (news stands) newspaper and resellers of print media. Even he was innovative in that it included in its pages the opinion of people with different political views.
Grupo Reforma is 85 years old. It began with the founding of the newspaper El Sol in April 1922, followed by EL NORTE in 1938, the newspaper Metro, Monterrey, in 1988, and the Reformation, in 1993. Four years later in 1997 born the newspaper Saltillo, Word, The Metro, in the city of Mexico, and Mural in Guadalajara, a year later. Born in 2004 Metro Saltillo, and in 2005, Metro Guadalajara. In the years 2007 and 2008 were born Metro State of Mexico and Puebla Metro.
Reforma independent journalism group angered the union, powerful company in Mexico City, just a year after his birth. The union controls the distribution of all newspapers in the capital city, and has traditionally been used by the political system to shoot down any publication that is considered unacceptable. The union took to boycott the distribution of Reforma in Mexico City in October 1994. Reform Group decided to create a separate distribution channel to sell Reform in the streets of Mexico City. The support of readers was amazing: the intellectuals, artists and ordinary people joined the staff of reform in the process of creating this channel. Dozens of people took to the streets to sell the paper; verbal abuse and even physical violence union were present. At present, Reform independently distributed to the homes of more than 100,000 subscribers, supermarkets and other outlets and for readers in the streets of Mexico City; the average daily newspaper circulation is 200,000 copies. Nationally acclaimed for being the newspaper with the highest circulation in the north of Mexico.
