It's
been a whirlwind few days here in Argentina.
The students' joint concert w/the Argentina National Youth Orchestra was
fantastic! They played so well together,
and the concert was enthusiastically received by the audience. There was even a contingent who gave WYSO a
standing ovation! And judging by the din
of voices at the pizza party afterwards, the students have made many new
Argentinian friends.
Yesterday
was a long bus ride to Mar del Plata.
It's cold here - lows in the 30s last night. But a warming trend is coming, and by the
time we're in Rosario, it should be in the 70s.
The students are off rehearsing this morning, and we chaperones are off
to infuse the local economy. It's our
duty after all!
Your
students have been amazing - you should be very proud of them. They're conducting themselve as wonderful
ambassadors for WYSO, Wisconsin, and the U.S.
