April 20, 2011- Today I took advantage of the opportunity to go to the Concertebouwe for a free concert. Every Wednesday around noon a free orchestra performance is given to whoever makes it through the doors. The performance was very good but it seemed more like a practice session for the orchestra, which it probably was. The building itself is quite impressive.
Performances from composers such as Bach and many others performed in that concert hall, which was made me appreciate where I was even more! Afterwards, Dan, Andrew, and I decided to get some ice cream since the temperature reached around 80 degrees today! Once we had our ice cream, we decided to walk through Sarphati Park, located just south of the Albert Cuyp street market, and enjoy the sun. Apparently everyone had the same idea because the park was full of people enjoying the sun.
It was a very enjoyable way to enjoy an afternoon!
