  1. It was a wonderful time and the performance went super! I had to do also an improvisation because the CD with the Electronics on which I sang which should had to stop, didn't. The person who had to control it did probably a wrong manipulation....So I went on improvising on Baroc music that went on by Biber which was in fact a very nice flow over that inspired me because of the subject what the Lectures was about.
    Than I played the Romance Romana by Irma Bilbao and a part of a sonata Pathéthique from Beethoven.
