Alphorn Concert:


At the end of October I had the opportunity to go to a concert featuring one of the world's oldest instruments: the alp horn (or alpenhorn), as seen below, is what you might easily recognize from Ricola ads. We listened to French horn music (ranging from classical to the Beatles) and also a reconstruction to an instrument which Pythagoras supposedly invented. All this provided a fabulous time for our ears AND at the end, our eyes got a treat as well. We viewed a selection of wildlife photographs taken by 3 professional Austrian photographers.

Thanks for sharing what you've been doing. You make Austria (and your home) sound like a great place to visit! Glad you're doing well! Evelyn
