Romania

Ester, my girlfriend, she is a documentary film director will participate on Aristoteles Workshop in Romania organized by Arte/France. So I had to organize couple of classcial guitar concerts there. I used to plan a lot to play the guitar in Romania/Transilvania especially Bela Bartok's works. It finally can happen that is so cool!

I got in touch with a nice Irish guy called Bob Boles Yesterday via phone. He has been living in Nagyszeben/Sibiu for three years. He is a musician and painter. I could reach him with the help of Istvan Toth who is the deputy director of Hungarian Institut in Bucarest. Bob is the founder of European House of Arts in Romania. I'll play classical guitar music on literature events six times in August in Sibiu thanks to Bob. I like to be in an international artist gang. There will be two gangs: film boys and girls at the workshop and musicians, performers, designers etc. at Bob's gang. Hopefully with the film boys and girls we will be able to make guitar concert videos and/or about the gang and upload then to this blog. Anyway I'll take a camera there... According to my plans I'll stay in Sibiu for two weeks so I am looking for more gigs right now.

I am very excited...

Bob wrote me only two emails about his thoughts and I could realize that he thinks basically on the same way about our modern age we live in, art, European art etc..

Ester and me Today:



I was so enthuciastic Yesterday so I called the Hungarian Institut in Delhi as well. The phone line was terrible so I had to try it twice. The director was not there I will have to try to reach him on Monday again.
