So we finally arrived in Denmark after hours of traveling. Holstebro is beautiful and the air is very refreshing.
Today was pretty exhausting. First we were up at 8am to have breakfast. The food is AMAZING...fresh bread, fresh fruit, strong coffee, and great main dishes.
The day started with a great breakfast with the Danish choir. Then immediately thereafter we rehearsed from 9 to 12:30 with all of the choirs. We worked on the Songbridge pieces. All of the choirs have such incredible sound, each and every one unique.
After rehearsal we went to lunch and had individual pasta salads with chicken. We then went for a walk into the City of Holstebro to meet with the Vice-Mayor. We were given a presentation on Holstebro and why we should move here.
Then we all got refreshments and headed out to the streets for shopping in the town. Then we returned to our camps and rehearsed some more for our concert tomorrow night. We also got to hear each choir perform their own folksongs. They were absolutely amazing. After rehearsal we had the option of dancing to the music of two Danish musicians, but Sarah and I chose to go to bed (but apparently the people who danced had a lot of fun).
