  塞维利亚

  6/20/2019
  In the morning, we arrived at the center of the city. There the Cathedral and the Alcazar stood facing towards each other, creating a space full of historical and cultural depth. From there we embarked on a tour in the Cathedral, viewing the inside of the biggest Gothic Catholic Church in the world. Inside, the ceilings seemed far from our reach embellished with carvings from different centuries. The Cathedral contained an impressive amount of sacred artwork by numerous artists famous at the time. After a tiring journey of walking up 35 ramps, we reached our final destination, the top of the bell tower. From there the whole city of 塞维利亚 was within our view, colorful buildings gleaming under the sun and towers that seemed impressive on the ground now nothing but a little speck. We felt like the kings of the world.

  那是PURISIMA

  6/16/2019
  Notes from a member of the audience.
  
  

  (萨拉曼卡，6月15日^th, 2019)
  
  

  It was 9pm and a soft light was still pouring in through the windows of the church Purísima Concepción. The Spanish superlative “purísima” means “very pure.” The task at hand was simple, yet extremely challenging: could Groton’s Orchestra be as superlative as the sacred place that was hosting it? Could the music be “purísima”?

  An Astronaut in Medieval 萨拉曼卡

  6/15/2019
  Today we ventured into the city of 萨拉曼卡 once more, bright and early for our master class. At the DaCapo School, with the guidance of our instructor Mara, we learned common traditional Spanish folk music and the instruments used, most of which displayed creativity and resourcefulness among agricultural areas. Traditional Spanish music falls into three main categories: pasacalles, jota, and charrada. Once we grew comfortable with the rhythms, we formed our band of Spanish folk music with an arsenal of spoons, 响板, 铃鼓, 玻璃瓶, 臼和杵, pandero (which is made of goat skin), 还有贝壳. And then we danced to the jota rhythm. Mara taught us some traditional footwork. This master class showed us how to create music from very humble beginnings, inspiring a sense of community.

  萨拉曼卡!

  6/14/2019
  Though tired from our previous day of exploration, we embarked on our journey to 萨拉曼卡 today. After packing our rooms, we promptly checked out and began packing our bus. Unlike our previous bus, the cellos with their hard cases could not all fit in the carriage, so we had to pack them into the seats of the bus. 不过, we left sharply at 10:00am, and within a few minutes, the bus was filled with the sonorous snores of sleepy students! 一路走来, we saw the change from city to countryside, with towering buildings changing to long, 永无止境的字段. From the few farms with cows, to the vast wheat fields, the scenery was breathtaking. Through the mountains we went to leave the beautiful city of Madrid, but we were greeted by this new and comforting change. We finally reached Hotel Horus in 萨拉曼卡, where we placed our bags, only to get back on the bus to travel to the center of 萨拉曼卡 to explore and have lunch.

  The Finale of Madrid

  6/14/2019
  马德里的你好! Nathan and Montanna here.
  
  

  Today was our third and final day in Madrid. Tomorrow we head off to 萨拉曼卡.
  
  

  The day started late with breakfast at the hotel. Some Spanish staples such as hot dogs and mushrooms filled our stomachs. We also bought some traditional Spanish spread– Nocilla (like nutella but better)– from the neighboring supermarket to put on our toast.
