It happened again today that my plans for the evening, and my plans for the blog, were drastically changed. Odnoo and me were suddenly and totally unexpectedly given free tickets to a concert with a famous opera singer. The music was mostly traditional Mongolian (which I like a lot, the tunes are often slightly melancholic) but Verdi and Strauss had also found their way in. Only one thing annoyed me immensely: the event was filmed, and quite often they filmed also the audience. While doing that a horrible spotlight was turned on which blinded me and most other people.
Gorgeous colors! This is a horse-headed fiddle orchestra, but as you can see two Western instruments are there too: the grand piano and the violoncello.
Note that this concert was not at all for tourists, in fact I saw no tourist-looking person at all.
The protagonist in action.
The conductor.
