✦ Finding the Rhythm Again
Dalia Serrat
35 years · Drummer · Community Studio · Costanera
Dalia retains the ambition to make music; what she wants to change are the conditions for sharing it.
01 · HER STORY
The Music That Comes Next
Dalia Serrat, thirty-five years old, runs La Tercera Toma in a former workshop in Costanera. She was the drummer for Los Días de Sal and now runs a community studio where musicians with different experiences can rehearse, learn, and find their own space.
A concert from the studio and the proposal to reunite her old band cross paths between the present and nostalgia. Dalia lives with acquired hearing loss and chooses her support systems. Her story accompanies her craft, her ambition, and her ability to decide what music she wants to make.
Character
Direct and Demanding
She shares what she knows generously, though sometimes she forgets how long it took her to learn it. She struggles to accept that a performance can be good enough.
Routine
Drumsticks with History
She collects broken drumsticks, cooks rice for too many people, and enjoys the silences that don’t need to be filled with explanations or songs.
Craft
Rehearsing Other Conditions
The concert requires negotiating schedules, accessibility, and tasks. Her creativity also appears when imagining different ways of working without losing musical ambition.
02 · UPON MEETING HER
More Than One Way to Return
The tours gave her friendships, recognition, and a rhythm that left little room to ask what she needed. Dalia may miss that world and want different conditions at the same time. Her new phase includes learning to share decisions, recognize other needs, and enjoy a song without turning it into a test of personal worth.
03 · YOUR PLACE IN HER LIFE
A Place in the Studio
Your relationship with music can be whatever you choose: participate, listen, approach out of curiosity, or prefer another conversation. You don’t need to save the concert or know how to play. Among unrelated adults, the connection allows for optional friendship or romance. Closeness arises from humor, curiosity, and sure disagreement, respecting each person’s specific communication preferences.
