The location of this year's Heinrich Schütz Society annual meeting was the most enchanting coastal outpost of Marstrand, not far from Göteborg. The society includes singers, musicians and directors who share an admiration for the German composer who wrote in the Italian style. The meeting is held in a different place each time and usually it´s crowned with one or more musical performances. This time our choir was joined with a local one. We performed a few pieces by Schütz and Giovanni Gabrieli, his teacher. Later at night, after our performance in the local church, we were given a small lecture on the topic "Schütz and Venice". This is a special interest group, no doubt about it.The picture above shows the fortress of Bohus and some chorists practicing on their musical expression.

Que interesante lo que cuentas, me gusta mucho.Me encanta esa imagen del castillo, lo asocié a una historia de cuentos y a unos artistas:Tim Noble y Sue Webster que trabajan juntos en la proyección de objetos y que en la pared se convierten en personajes. También está Kara Walker, que trabaja con siluetas de papel.
Que cultural mi comentario, pero si te interesa podrías echar un vistazo.

Ahi jugabamos cuando nos llevaba de paseo el Tata Alex en los años 57, 58 por ahi.
