Last Friday I went to the last of the concerts in the “Friday evening new classical” series. The one that made me book tickets to the series to begin with. Strings and a didgeridoo – which was too intriguing to pass on.

For a while it looked like I would miss it because of the conference trip with Active Solution, because that was originally pencilled in for Friday to Sunday. But the dates got changed so I got to do both.

It was… not bad. The strings and the didgeridoo fit together quite well. Especially the cello, which is roughly in the same register as the didgeridoo. But the didgeridoo didn’t stand out as much as I would have wished – it was somewhat drowned by the strings with their stronger, sharper voices.

Not a bad finale for the series, but it confirmed my already quite firm conclusion that this is not the series for me.
