Lotus World Music Festival, here we come!
Rows upon rows of corn fields as we drive through Indiana, coming up to Bloomington… arriving in this beautiful city, wooed by delightful streets, filled with cafes, restaurants, shops… do some window shopping, have a fantastic dinner at Falafels…love the zahtar bread! Listen to the sounds of other languages being spoken around us… watch as the stages begin to go up in and around downtown which will soon be transformed into a magical space for all the concerts that will take place here this weekend… the world will come to Bloomington, artists from so many different countries: Mali, France, Spain, India, Ethiopia, and on and on… one big global party! And thousands of people coming into town for this annual celebration… find the venue where I will be singing: First United Methodist Church… have a peak inside… such a gorgeous space inside, I can only imagine what the acoustics will be like! The guys have safely arrived… touch base with them… everyone is happy…
Can’t wait to perform my Armenian folk songs for everyone here tomorrow night…
