Another working trip....Puerto Rico!

When it was still 40 degrees in NYC on April 16th, it seemed like the perfect week to head south and play a concert in San Juan, Puerto Rico. We'll have to thank our management for setting that one up! And since one of Aaron's best friends lives in San Juan, I was able to convince him to come along on this trip (it was a hard sell but I'm very persuasive).

San Juan is beautiful, especially the historic Old San Juan, which was defended from various colonial naval attacks by two magnificent forts.











































I enjoyed visiting the Museo Pablo Casals where they have a plaster cast of Casals' hands! Awesome.















Puerto Rico has some amazing beaches...this one is in the Northeast part of the island.

































Aaron's friend, the playwright Miguel Melendez, lives in the heart of Old San Juan and we were lucky enough to stay with him for a few days.

















Our concert was in the Centro des Bellas Artes Luis A. Ferre which has a beautiful 2000 seat auditorium. Not every seat was full, but it was a very warm and enthusiastic crowd and we enjoyed performing there very much. How could you not enjoy a trip like this???
