Poznań

Well, I did say I would be honest.... there were very few blank faces and no awkward silences after our Polish introductions... we were told we could be understood very well... which is a relief; Mike even achieved a resounding round of applause after tackling the Polish for a 78 revolutions per minute record ...

We were excited that our Chopin went down well too... The Minute Waltz [à la Barbra Streisand, of course] and the Prelude in Eminor continuing into Jobim's Insensatez, which uses the prelude as a skeleton...

Our hosts Affabre Concinui - The Polish Chamber Singers were delightful and we have another excellent friendship in the vocal group world... we hope to be coming to Poland lots more.
