A concert in Castle great hall, Durham University

A concert in Castle great hall, Durham University


I had a great concert last night.


Durham University has a music department and often hold some small concert or performance.





Last night, DUOS Durham University Orchestral Society presented





Chicavsky - the Nutcraker suite


and


Dorak Symphony No. 9 - from the new world





I like to listen to classical music, but I rarely go to concert when I was in Taiwan.


The ticket sometimes is too expensive. Luckily, I am in Durham, they often carried out music concert.


Local residents and students enjoy them a lot.





I had a concert in March, it was hold in Durham Cathedral. It was big space, so I can't see many, just listening


the music only. But this time, I sit just in front of those musicians, I can see their face, each postures,


when they wait for next rythm. I enjoyed the concert last time very much.





Castle great hall is situated in Durham castle, being part of University college. It is listed in World heritage.


Even though I am a student in Durham University, I still can't going their without permission. Of cause, we can't


take photo there.





But you still can take a look via below website.
