New York, once, which was a lot of fun - but not Washington. It's on my list for "one day." :) Meanwhile, I've just posted about a concert in a small church in the Philippines - was good. Different. On a bamboo organ. (http://pamposhdhar.blogspot.com/2009/02/haydn-on-bamboo-organ-in-philippines.html) Alas, I’ve never been to Washington.

It turned out to be a wonderful experience. So different without the tourists (like us!) On an earlier trip, my sister and I walked in on a Bach concert in one of the old churches (the oldest in the city, actually, but the name escapes me now). Again, fabulous. You might want to try something like that while you're in Paris. Have fun!
