ENGLISH

Morocco’s first World Cup classification was in Mexico 1970 where the soccer team sang for the very first time in their history their National Anthem. Previous to 1970, Morocco’s National Anthem only had a musical version since it lacked lyrics. Morocco’s second time in a World Cup was in Mexico 1986 where it classified for the first time ever to the next stage of the tournament in first place of its group, defeating Portugal 3-1. This was a first for an African and Arabic team! .

ESPAÑOL

El primer Mundial en el que participó Marruecos fue el de México 1970 donde sus jugadores cantaron por primera vez en la historia su himno nacional. Anteriormente a 1970, el himno nacional de Marruecos era netamente musical pues carecía de letra. En 1986 Marruecos asiste a su segundo Mundial en Mexico 1986 donde por primera vez clasifica a la segunda ronda con el primer lugar de su grupo venciendo a Portugal 3-1. ¡Marruecos fue el primer país africano y árabe en pasar a la siguiente ronda en un mundial!

One of Mexico’s most famous divas during the Golden Age of Mexican Cinema was Maria Felix. She was born in the northwestern state of Sonora on April 8th, 1914 and she died on April 8th, 2002 at the age of 88 years old. Do you think this Mexican diva programed her mind to leave this world and immortalize her image on the same day that she was born?

ESPAÑOL

María Félix fue una de las principales divas de la Epoca de Oro del Cine Mexicano. Nació en la ciudad de Alamos en el estado de Sonora (al noroeste de México) un 8 de abril de 1914 y murió el 8 de abril del 2002 a la edad de 88 años. ¿Crees que esta bella diva se haya preparado mentalmente para dejar este mundo e inmortalizar su imagen en la misma fecha en que nació?

ENGLISH

I love the performance of Coldplay’s song MY UNIVERSE given by the Ukrainian children choir COLOR MUSIC. One of Mexico’s most famous scientists, Marcos Moshinsky, was born in Ukraine and immigrated to our country at age 3. His studies focused on Quantum Physics…a necessary tool to understand the universe. Through music and science…let’s connect with OUR UNIVERSE 🤓 !

ESPAÑOL

He quedado impactado con el coro infantil ucraniano COLOR MUSIC y la interpretación que le dan a la canción MY UNIVERSE de Coldplay. Curiosamente, uno de los científicos más reconocidos en nuestro país, nació en Ucrania y emigró a México a la edad de 3 años naturalizándose años después como mexicano. Su especialidad era el estudio relacionado a la física cuántica…conocimientos muy importantes para comprender al universo. ¡A través de la música y la ciencia, conectémonos con NUESTRO UNIVERSO 🤓!
