Choral Singing and Autumn Colours

Following a rainstorm last week, we were blessed with another couple of beautiful sunny days this weekend, with autumn colours beginning to show. I had no specific goal for my walk this afternoon, but along the way decided to extend it into the town park. 

When I got there, I could hear music. It turned out there was an open air choir concert going on - something we've not been spoiled with during the past 1½ year... I recalled I'd probably seen something about it in the local paper - to do with a choir festival this weekend, and also with BorĂ¥s celebrating 400 years as a town. As the weather was nice, and it wasn't too crowded (totally possible to "keep distance") I ended up staying around until the end, i.e. about half an hour. (I arrived in the park shortly after 3 pm. Don't know if they had started at 3 or earlier.)

It's nice to have a degree of freedom back, hearing the music in public would've been wonderful.

What a lovely and fun surprise! And the sky and trees cooperated with the concert as well!

Yes it was, Amy. :)

Ginny, just going for a walk along the same old paths as usual, the concert was certainly an unexpected bonus! :)

the blue mackerel sky and red trees is awesome. all of the fall colors are spectacular and that is the perfect place to listen to a choir, plus the weather was perfect... good thing you walked that way

To walk through the park with the choir would have been really splendid in my book. As for the red autumnal trees - heaven.

Graham, they were lucky to have a sunny weekend for the choir festival. Still beautiful autumnal colours on the trees this weekend - indeed, even more than last week - but now it's raining.
