Culture

Saturday night was the opening event of the month-long Festival Casals de Puerto Rico.

We were invited to join Dagmar and husband Phillipe for the concert. Originally from France the couple has been in Puerto Rico three years, and Phillipe runs a cigar factory. De Anne first met Dagmar at an afternoon ladies event several weeks ago. Polish composer and conductor, 3 time Grammy winner, Krzysztof Penderecki (yes, I never heard of him either) directed the symphony orchestra, two choirs - adult and children's, plus 6 opera soloists.

 De Anne was thrilled by the performance and I stayed awake, so the evening was a success.
