Unerwartet in der #Beethovenhalle bei der Eröffnung gewesen - was für ein musikalisches Erlebnis! #Bonn wirkte wahrlich ausgehungert nach so langer Durststrecke. Tolle Akustik im Saal. #Mahler2 #DirkKaftan #GerhildRomberger #Bundesjugendchor #CameronCarpenter #FabianMüller #SaraGlojnarić

“my heart was pounding as we stood up—so scared—and then we sang—we were perfect—and from then on it was tremendous—so gorgeous—the fugue—the tremendous ending—singing our hearts out—the tears right there—feeling so great—everyone immediately stood up & cheered & applauded—SO FANTASTIC—me singing with the Pittsburgh Symphony!”

An analysis, but with her Personal Note added:

"And when it was time for us to sing: “my heart was pounding as we stood up—so scared—and then we sang—we were perfect—and from then on it was tremendous—so gorgeous—the fugue—the tremendous ending—singing our hearts out—the tears right there—feeling so great—everyone immediately stood up & cheered & applauded—SO FANTASTIC—me singing with the Pittsburgh Symphony!”"

Right, as things are going nuts in the world I’ve been encouraged to release this old badger into the wild. Me and two mates with some singalong mahler 2 action on holiday a few years back. Video rated PG - scenes of very mild nudity/sun burn and some terrible singing..enjoy!
