The last day in Paris this summer, we were walking around to catch some last breath of the Parisian atmosphere. I cannot remember where we were, but at some point we heard the sound of violins and cellos coming from a courtyard around some public gardens. There was a rather large group of young people playing classical music, and they were quite good. The most striking thing was that they seemed to play not just for the public, but also for themselves, as they really seemed to be having a very good time playing together.
I took
a lot of pictures (two 512MB CF cards... almost 100 pictures in RAW format) of which 20 or so are good enough to be shown around (they were moving a lot, and it was not very bright where they were playing). I have a gallery with all of them, and I will post the address later...
This guy was playing in the center. Quite an interesting and intense character... Reminds me of Othello. I know somebody that had a little crush for him

They were all young, and each seemed to come from a different part of the world. More of these photos later... I remember I asked to one of the girls that were playing a contact address where to send the photos, in case they were good... I should look for it, maybe it was saying the name of the group.
