Thanks for the link to the great read! Enjoy your time in Thuringia. We’ll be in Saxony-Anhalt next week and hope to get to a couple of places in Thuringia or at least eat a lot of Thuringer brats while we are there.
Hope you will have time for a trip report to this interesting, music filled area, when you return.

Mona , needless to say , one of our destinations the other night was The Gewandhaus . Gewandhaus Orchester , and Andriss Nelsons , the program was Bruckner 8 . Magnificent performance ( eight horns , four doubling Wagner Tuben ) and as throughout Europe , an immpeccably mannered audience . A packed house as well , two thousand seats filled . On the way to Dresden tomorrow , more music in the weeks to come.
