historically accurate Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 1 hour ago, Harpymom said: Today is DD's culminating Master's recital, the end of her Fulbright, and the final exam for the degree. The venue is literally at the edge of the security zone, about a mile from where they're meeting tomorrow. She has three harps to move and she needs to finish and get home before the city shuts down later this afternoon. She's been describing the many black vans with tinted windows flying around, lots of sirens, and the really large guys with dark glasses casually strolling everywhere, suddenly. She also has to move a theorbo for a friend who is playing in her recital because they decided she would be more likely to not be hassled while carrying a large solid instrument case past the street blockade. She's been totally distracted by it all, which is probably good for her nerves! Hope they all got moved, and good luck to her! How exciting! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happi duck Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 My local big city was the location for an event like that and we were already a planning a trip into the city that day. It was wild to see all the security. As time went by and the deadline to leave was coming it just ramped up and up and up. Fascinating! Nice addition to what's already sure to be a great story for your dd! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junie Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Congratulations to your dd!! I hope that there's a way for you to watch her recital. And too bad that all of the large guys and black vans can't help her move her instruments! Also, I had never heard of a theorbo. How beautiful, but how awkward to carry around! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
