After our amazing time in Nordlingen, it was a bitter-sweet goodbye as we departed for Stuttgard. On our journey, there was lots of traffic, we were hit by a truck, and we were even pulled over by the border police; could it get any worse? NO IT COULD NOT! We arrived to the Stuttgard Music School which was located in one of the most beautiful areas in the world. After rehearsing a few times with a conductor at the school, we got to explore the streets of Stuttgart where we saw these eccentric trees, cute shops, beautiful buildings, heard the most amazing street music, and ate spinach pie and peach yogurt gelato, YUM! We got back to the music school for our second concert where we heard the incredible Brass ensemble (conducted by the famous Mr. Gassi!) and played incredibly, even with a conductor we weren't very familiar with. We all made some very nice Stuttgard friends as well. The bus ride home to our hotel was probably the best moment of my life! The band decided to sing our entire concert while gazing out the window at the beautiful scenery-- simply priceless. My band family is amazing!
