Ari's Salon Concert

It was the 2nd Thursday of the month,

so time for Ari's Salon Concert!

- the season started already in September,

but couldn't make it

as my feet were badly wounded

after walking a long distance

in new gorgeous shoes by Minna Parikka...

.

Countertenor Randall Scotting

pianist Gabriella Gyökér

in a concert of Baroque opera arias.
.

.

Mr. Scotting has appeared in Carnegie Hall twice in 2008

and is currently preparing his debut performances

with Minnesota opera in the US

and Landestheater Neusterlitz in Germany.

An artist with a brilliant and rich voice charming his audiences

with his extraordinary stage-presence.
.

Ari, László, Randall Scotting & Gabriella Gyökér

- very nice concert!

- songs by Handel, Haydn &

Hungarian composers Ligeti & Bartok

- especially the contemporary songs by Ligeti

were very interesting!

Have to go & buy cd's of Ligeti's music!
.

- funny though, didn't meet any familiar faces there,

except Ari & Laszló
