After some very fast sleep(!), the group made an early departure to rendevouz with a boat cruise departing from the town of Melk winding its way through the beautiful landscape of the Wachau region, which is a UNESCO world heritage location. The cruise docked in the town of Durstein at the castle where Richard the Lionhearted was imprisoned.The group stopped briefly in the town of Gmund, a town close to the border of Austria and the Czech Republic, before continuing on to Csesky Krumlov, which is a charming small town and another UNESCO world heritage site. Two in one day!
As the group walked over to the church, we couldn’t help but notice all the big flyers posted about our concert. We felt a little bit like celebrities.
We sang to a very full house for our concert at St. Vitus Church.
Among the crowd of people, we found a pocket of folks from Iowa, Wisconsin, and Vermont who were visiting the town and happened upon our concert. Everyone commented on the variety of the repertoire, the apparent depth of vocal talent, and as one audience member commented, "rich and velvety mixture of voices."
