The Magic Flute





Last night, thirteen of us were able to enjoy the second last night of Mozart's Magic Flute at the Sydney Opera House... a magical evening by all accounts. Thanks to Eszter Donald, the principle cellist and a friend, we had second row tickets and could see right into the orchestra. It was a beautiful evening, with a nearly full moon above.

The themes of the Magic Flute turned out to be good ones for our upcoming retreat, especially the importance of silence! Just two more days to go before we head west to Seven Hill.
