Two nights ago a string orchestra played in the church in the village of Gorbio. The 5 euros to enter goes towards the restoration of the facade of Eglise St. Barthélémy.The group, made up of musicians of all ages, is called Arco Musica and they were astonishing. Beautiful music - we heard Mozart, Bach, Albinoni, Vivaldi, Grieg, Sibelius and so on.
The small photo shows the 1st violin about to give a note to the rest of the group so they can tune-up.
j'aime beaucoup les regards, tu as su prendre les expressions, l'ecoute, superbe
ReplyDelete100% agree with Olivier. Couldn't have said it better.
ReplyDeleteVery intense expressions. Well caught
ReplyDeleteSuch a nice moment in time captured in digits. Well done.
ReplyDeleteI love classical music and play violin myself, too. I played in the 1st violin section in our high school orchestra but I was never "first chair" of the 1st violins! Tant pis!
ReplyDeleteThe fellow in back is not quite as attentive...but I bet he played like a dream once he turned to his music.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful capture.
ReplyDeleteA magique moment !
ReplyDeleteHalf in english half in french.
ReplyDeleteIt's better to say in my own language :
Que Momento Magico !
Thank you
Lovely all around. I too recently experienced beautiful music, of a different sort but nonetheless beautiful--Sting with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra at our wonderful Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall in downtown Portland.
ReplyDeleteOh how I wish I could have been there. Lovely setting, lovely music.
ReplyDeleteV
If only we could have been there. Lovely photo, the concentration on the violinist's faces is amazingly captured, you are so clever.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful portraits here, Jilly.
ReplyDeleteI feel all the attention in these looks.
All four faces are good here, all expressing attention and focus in their own way. It's a great photo.
