Following Chopin August 11, 2007

Filed under: music,travelog — Jung @ 2:01 pm

Thanks to Andrzej’s seamless arrangements, “Following Chopin” troop of 25 had a memorable trip.

We covered Chopin Museum and Wilanow Palace in Warsaw, Zelazowa Wola — Chopin’s birth place, Antonin Palace (Chopin was once the guest of the prince there) — where I played a recital, Wieliczka Salt Mine Museum — where I saw an ad of my recital on a billboard :-) , Wawel Castle, Old Town, and Saint Mary Cathedral in Krakow, and the Krakow National Museum (where Leonardo da Vince’s portrait is in permanent display) — where I played a recital with a surprisingly large turn out, then Lazienki Palace back in Warsaw, and the farewell dinner at Andrzej’s beautiful home lovingly prepared by his beautiful wife Arlette and we also met their gorgeous 12-year-old soccer star son Arthur.

Here are a few of the photographs I took, to see the entire gallery visit my NEW gallery site here! I haven’t loaded the other not so great (pixel wise) pictures from my iPhone, maybe I will add more to the gallery later :-)
