The concert
Pretty great concert. Very much the old style classical performance, where the lights stay up, there’s some humor, the audience participates a bit, and we do an awful lot of clapping for the Opera singers, those divas.
To be fair, the girl in the green had amazing control. All four vocalists were quite talented, which was fun.
The Mozart Egyptian piece was really quite interesting, and a couple of the polkas really had some beat to them!
I have a PDF of the program that I’ll figure out a way to attach later.

Emergence

The one known as Josh emerges from the light (also known as the rooftop deck) after a delightful lunch full of kebab. We will not speak of the Coca-Cola.

I seem to be one of the few people in Vienna who pray to the wrong end of churches, and walk into cathedrals backwards…
The organist is practicing right now. I may never leave.

Apparently Mozart was buried behind this gate. (Stephansdome) (edited to correct location)
