The concert went very well and again we were blessed with a standing room only audience. Kelli Lueder, a soprano in The Choral Project, met up with a friend from the Basque choir who came to the choir festival we went to in San Luis Obispo four years ago. Here name escapes me now, but I'll update this later. Anyway, they had a great time on the bus and she was able to give us some more insight into the text of the two Basque songs we are performing in the Tolosa festival.
This photo was taken earlier today after rehearsed at a local historical house, which is now a school. We went on a walking tour of Zarautz and found that this town is a surfers hang out. They also play soccer on the beach. We were all impressed by the sense of community the locals have. And we experienced their willingness to stop and talk to us, even if we can only say about for words to them.
