May 18: To Valencia, and Rehearsals

Bid goodbye to Barcelona early this morning. Arrived in Valencia, City of the Arts and Sciences, and after lunch went straight to the Conservatory for rehearsals with our host choir. Afterward, we were treated to a merienda (snack—a fine one) by the Conservatory folks.

 Katie, Barrett, Lyla, Antoinne, and Alex at the rest stop.

 Streets of Valencia; walking to the Conservatori Professional de Música.

 Self-explanatory.

 Chorale in the Teatro San Esteban @ the Conservatory.

 Anais, David, Brenna, Tom, and Taylor.

 Rehearsing "Ay, mi morena" with Dr. Southern.

 With fellow "coralistas" from the Conservatory Chamber Choir.

 Esteban, Adam, Alec, and some jerk (yours truly).
