Day 3: Sightseeing in Munich and Concert with Munich International Choral Society




Day three in Munich was incredibly interesting.  We began the day sightseeing in downtown Munich, splitting up after listening to the historical sounds of the glockenspiel in the center of the old part of the city for sightseeing and lunch on our own.  "I can't decide if I should wear sunglasses or have my umbrella."  Jennifer could not have described the weather more accurately.  It would rain, then it would shine. 

Infamous Apfelstrudle!


However, rain or shine the concert with the Munich International Choral Society was going to happen.  Both choirs performed together in perfect harmony as if we were one big long distant singing family, performing Abendlied by Rheinberger and Locus iste by Bruckner. 

After the concert, all the performers met at a pub called Ratskeller and shared many laughs and stories, ending the night with singing and a unique friendship.

  1. You were right about that weather! Miguel and I got absolutely drenched as we hurried through the market square to try to make rehearsal on time. It was so clear not more than a few hours ago! Reminded me of South Texas crazy spring weather!
    That choir was very talented and so was that director! They were so much fun to sing with!! That concert was fabulous from start to finish!
