Just wanted to give you a bit of what’s been going in since I’ve been in Berlin. I’ve seen a great parts of the city during the night. It really seems different all lit up. That being said, there is a ton to see day or night. Seems the weather is getting better so I’ll head out a bit more this weekend. Last week between shows I headed to Erfurt and Halle…Erfurt for an audition and Halle to see friends and stay a bit. Erfurt has an incridible Dom that kinda pops out of nowhere on the way to theater. It is definatly something to check out. Halle… what a great city. I visited the
Handel House – the house Handel was born in and spent his youth with his family. It’s been converted into a museum with some manuscripts, period instruments and a tiny theater
that gives historical info about Handel at different points in his life – great place to visit for a musician. Aside from that it has a great museum and theater. I saw a production of Tannhauser on Friday. I’m currently in Barcelona and heading out to see La sagrada familia cathedral. Hoping to catch up with friends as well as hear some concerts this week before heading back to Berlin – then London – then home to Chicago!
