The above surely makes for a beautiful Sunday.
So, Christin ( who needs a little diversion ) and I drove through the Carinthian countryside, ending up in the town of Ossiach, situated on Lake Ossiach.
It so happened that on this Sunday, April 26, the "Jugend Sinfonie Orchester" of Carinthia gave a concert in the Alban Berg Concert Hall.
Why not add "Music" to Sunshine, Mountains and a Lake ?
Concert starting time at 2PM gave us enough time for a light lunch and off we went to the Concert Hall.
I estimate that the Orchestra consisted of about 50 to 60 members who produced a lovely rich sound.
The big surprise were two soloists:
Anna Rupitsch, about 18 years of age, played a flute.
Flawlessly executed with a mellow sound she gave one the feeling of an experienced concert flautist,
playing a composition called: "Fantasie für Flöte und Orchester".
What a pleasure.
Then onto the stage came a young man, also about 18 years old who played a violin like a seasoned pro.
Luka Ljubas had absolutely no problems with the rapid finger work demanded by Sarasate's
"Gypsy Melodies", nor later by the almost equally demanding "Theme from Schindler's List".
There are surely great musical futures waiting for Anna and Luka.
