¡VIVA ESPAÑA!
1. Mrs. Paulson expresses her joy at seeing the Priory Choir on Barcelona’s streets. She noted how excited she was when they were walking around the city, and how proud she felt when saw posters advertising Woodside Priory School Choir plastered on the walls.
2. The choir enjoyed visiting the Palau de la Música Catalana. Located in Barcelona, it is built in the beautiful “modernista” style of architecture. Vivian Chuang (11) says that it was one of the most beautiful concert halls to which she has ever been. Here’s to hoping that the choir can come back and experience this life-changing opportunity all over again!
3. The whole Woodside Priory Choir went to the monastery of Montserrat, located at the top of the mountain of Montserrat. The view from which this picture was taken overlooks the beautiful, expansive mountains of Catalonia. Zeta Weiss (10) says that visiting the Monastery was a great part of the trip and she loved bonding with the upperclassmen who went.
4. Wow, what a spectacular building! It must have been an amazing experience to perform at the Iglesias del Sagrado Corazón de Jesús. Vivian Chuang (11) explains that it was unforgettable how so many strangers came in to listen to and to enjoy their music.
5. After days spent rehearsing and performing at multiple venues, the entire Priory choir relaxed on the beach in Barcelona. “It was not on our schedule, and we just kinda got out of the car on a whim as we were passing by,” Vivian Chuang (11) said. The choir is pictured climbing on top of the spider web structure, which according to all of the members, was a great way to take a break from the busy retreat.
