Elvis has been sighted!

Well, the big news in Bergen today is that Elvis is alive and well! We were planning a relaxed and healthy lunch at a vegetarian cafe called Viva Las Vegis. The theme of the place is a tribute to the King of Rock and Roll. After we ordered our sandwiches Jim Moffitt disappeared and all of a sudden there he was, Elvis Presley, in the flesh! After all these years looking pretty well. He's lost weight, no doubt due to the vegetarian diet and the amount of walking one can do in Bergen, but he's still the coolest. Sadly, Jim missed the entire thing. I'm not sure where he was, but we were able to show him this photo.



The rest of the day was pretty much a blur after that encounter. We rehearsed with the BWQ at the concert hall to prepare for our concert on Thursday at Troldhaugen. We will perform a piece by Jean Franciax together along with a few selections from each quintet.



Tomorrow we will perform two school concerts for children in grades 5-7. We will play some of our Hawaiian selections for them along with a movement of the Trubitt. We're looking forward to it.
