Butler Tour-Florence and Bologna Concert




Just a quick post...will put up a few more pics. Had a great concert last night in Bologna, singing our final two selections with members of the University Choir and Orchestra. Large and appreciative audience.

Spent a few hours (!) in Florence, where the architectural and sculptural beauty is quite overwhelming. And, had a huge serving of chocolate mint and nutella flavored gelato mixed together. Yum!

Aboard the ferry boat, cruising from Patras, Greece to Ancona, Italy


Brunelleschi's famous Dome in Florence


Butler Tour Choir performs in Bologna

And we are joined by our new "Bolognese" friends for the finale


GELATO!!!

NOTE: On Sunday, March 20, at 5 pm local time (12 noon EDT) we will be singing for Mass at the Vatican. We will perform four motets in Latin, and it's supposed to be a pretty important day in the Catholic church. We've been told that the Cardinal from Rome will be in attendance this day. The Vatican website seems to have a list of events that are streamed and/or carried live via radio, if you are interested in following us.
