Competition Day in Tolosa tomorrow

What a wonderful end to the concert tour before the competition. After spending part of the day in San Sebastian, we went to Aoiz to perform at the concert hall "Casa de Cultura.". The room was dry so we were finally able to hear everything clearly. Sone things were really good and there are just a few things that need to be cleaned up.

We went to a restaurant after the concert and, of course, we found an opportunity to sing for our supper... We sang Shanendoah for our Courier, Reinhart, since he was not able to hear this concert. In walked some other people, who turned out to be a men's quartet from Denmark. They sang a beautiful Basque fold song for us. It brought me to tears, it was so well sung. Then our director noticed that there was a children's choir from the Philippines in the next room. We asked if they'd like us to sing for them. They said "yes" and we sang "Let Me Fly."

They sang a version of a couple spirituals, including "This Train is Bound for Glory"

Then the quartet came into the room and sang another beautiful and comic German song.

I am pumped for tomorrow!
