• Eine Kleine Nachtmusic

    July 4 in Switzerland ⋅ ☀️ 82 °F

    And what a way to finish off the night and somewhat symbolically the whole stay/trip!!

    We attended a Tibute to Ennio Morricone "Filmsinfonic" concert at Tonhalle Zurich.
    A beautiful building, The Tonhalle has been Zurich's concert hall since 1895 , home to the Tonhalle Orchestra Zurich , founded in 1868. The venue was held in Grosse Tonhalle hall, with its famous acoustics, which offers 1,430 seats (yet doesn't look "that big").
    Tons of interesting info hete: https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tonhalle_Zürich

    And of course the music itself!!!! Although understandably verbotten, I (aso understandably), couldn't help myself and clandestinely recorded a small piece of the last set (which should be familiar to everyone).

    3 encores were given; none unfortunately were my favorite piece, "Le Vent, Le Cri", (translates to "The Wind, The Cry" in English). It was featured in the 1981 film Le Professionnel, and in itself is a variation of Morricone's "Chi Mai" (Italian: whoever), composition written in 1971, when it was first used in the film Maddalena.
    Oh well...

    In any case, a truly awesome evening ❤️
