Impressions
Ein A synthesis of the arts - music, landscape, food, great
new acquaintances. Thank you for the idea and the sovereign organisation!
The rehearsal locations were as varied as the pieces, absolutely
suitable for the summer heat, shady places, alleys,
churches, forests... And besides the rehearsals there was enough
time for siesta, short excursions or exploring the town.
the town. Simply great!
The trip was balm for the soul! Sophia has a wonderful charisma and her own joy in singing is infectious. In addition, she skilfully organised everything. This way, a relaxed group of several generations came together. Besides the singing, we were able to get a small insight into Calabria and felt really familiar with the place after a week. Thank you for this very special week, a real pleasure!
