Since October of last year I’ve had January 14th marked in big red letters so that I would remember an event that I absolutely did NOT want to miss!! Stockholm Concert Hall had its open house today where you got to go in and talk to everyone in the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, play music quizzes, go in for free in to their music library and see all the sheet music they use, try all the instruments played in the orchestra, hear short concerts by different groups of the orchestra and so on. But I got home really late last night, had friends who stayed the night and so on so we slept in late and then just took out time making breakfast in the morning. Then all of a sudden I realized that it was in fact Saturday, January 14th and my heart just dropped…. I had already missed most of the things I wanted to see by that time and I was still in my PJs so I knew it would take me a while to get ready and get myself in to town in time for the end of it.
But after a while I decided that I at least had to try and see some of it!! So I showered, did my hair and make up and was out of the door in just 40 minutes (and on top of this I have a pretty nasty cold) and made the train in time and Im so glad I went! I got to hear parts of a brass instrument-concert and then I got to hear the half hour, final concert with the whole orchestra and I was in heaven!
Trumpet, French horn, trombone and tuba. It really was amazing!
Det låter ju helt fantaaaaastiskt. Tur att du hann med en del i alla fall. Krya på dig.
