Marta and I saw two latin jazz greats: MICHEL CAMILO GIOVANNI HIDALGO They performed on the Ohrid Summer Festival, some 150miles from Skopje, so it really was a chance we would regret for the rest of our lives. They performed as a duet - and it was like 5 musicians were playing. The sound was phenomenal - their playing was divine. Giovanni's energy is beyond everything I've seen with my own eyes, and Michel's virtuosity is unmatchable... A night to remember for a long long time... Pictures later, when I download them from the camera...

Very cool. Glad you got to go and enjoy it. I know Hildalgo, but I need to research Camilo a bit.

Hey Goki, Thanks for saving me some research time. Pretty good performance with a full band, too.

Must have been a great evening, Goki. Both those guys are loaded with energy, not to mention ability.

Gregory wrote: Fantastic setting! Indeed Gregory - a stage in front of a cathedral built in the 11th century. The acoustics is divine, and the whole place just enlightens the musicians. Usually, it's a place where classical concerts are performed. The inside of the cathedral is magnificent as well - both acoustically and visually... Too bad it suffered harsh times - it was destroyed in wars, turned into a mosque (all the frescoes covered with molter and bell tower destroyed), even turned into a military gunpowder storage. Lucky for us, it didn't have the same faith as the Acropolis... All in all - a fantastic place where one can experience spiritual enlightenment... The front of the church: http://www.macedonium.org/userfiles/ima ... Sofija.jpg The back, where a small amphitheater is built to house cultural events... http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/c ... %D0%B4.JPG Don't know whether I should upload some video clips... What do You guys think?!?
