Cluj, Romania

We've had an amazing time here in Cluj over the past couple of days. I've met so many lovely, friendly people and seemingly an entire country's worth of talented musicians. This might in part have been helped by the fact that this is a university town rich with culture; it truly has been a pleasure to be at the centre of this.Always encouraging when one's [group's] first performance in a new territory is in a lovely concert venue to a sold-out hall with the audience giving multiple standing ovations at the end and demanding multiple encores! Can't wait to return here - there was talk earlier of making it an extended tour next time, perhaps including a stop in Bucharest and Brasov too.We're currently at Cluj airport following a masterclass this afternoon, waiting for a flight to Münster via Munich: the touring, travelling life resumes after a brief and blissful Romanian bubble.
