TENET Germany Travelogue, Day 8
Clara Osowski, Mezzo-Soprano

All good things must come to an end, and unfortunately, it is true for our Tenet tour together. 

We're thankful for another beautiful day as we scatter across Germany, some navigating the train back to the airport, some (at an ungodly 06:00) onto the next set of concerts in Leipzig, and some disappearing into a much needed holiday!

A quick recap and a German primer follows:

Tage Eins: Gute Reise! Flight to Germany.

Tage Zwei: Schlafzeit. Jet lag in Germany.

Tage Drei: Konzert. Our debut tour concert.

Tage Vier: Zug. Modern train travel marvels to Kassel.

Tage Fünf: Kultur Sommer! It's not just a small town!

Tage Sechs: Grün. Everything in Kassel seemed to be green.

Tage Sieben: Festlichkeit. Celebration.

Und jetzt, der letzte Tage, Heimat. Traveling away from one's homeland gives us an appreciation for what we have in our lives. Luckily for musicians, we carry a piece of home and family with us wherever we go, in our instruments and voices, and our ability to collaborate while in service to others to any audience. This tour was a beautiful reminder how small we remain across the ocean, but how powerful music and good will can be in gestures beyond words and language barriers, and even shared Schnitzel.

We hope to see you soon at a concert next season, and we thank you for taking this trip with us!
