An incredible night


On Saturday we opened the ‘Music at the fort’ festival. It really was an amazing event and I am glad that I even managed to relax for half an hour and see the first half of the concert. The audience was very appreciative and some members of the audience even came up to one of our stewards and said they had to pinch their arms as they thought they were dreaming. I cannot imagine better praise than that!
The Lund University Male Choir gave a marvellous concert and showed exactly why they sold 80 000 CDs last year. It really is an incredible choir - arguably one of the best male choirs in the world.
After the concert, the choir joined the audience for dinner. But the choir members obviously did not think that they had sung enough, as they kept singing in the restaurant all night. I do not know whether it was the singing that was affected by the drinking or whether it was my perception that was altered, but the more we drank the better it sounded!
The adventure continues…
