Breakfast at 08.00.
Guitar (and Stick & Harp) meeting at 09.15. This addressed several circulations in several times. One of the most popular was six & three quarters against eleven-and-a-bit. Then, we strapped on magic chords & thrakked out. Exactly what the rhythms were, was sometimes difficult to distinguish. But they were very rhythmical.
Clients arrive for personal meetings at 11.00. Prior to their arrival, I took the opportunity to enjoy the superb views from the House. Looking down over the front door…
This is the staircase up from the town, where Alessandro & I walked at night on our arrival. Looking up from there…
The next floor, on the balcony in front of Big Al’s room…
Look a little further to the left, and the steps lead to the chapel…
The dormitories overlook the church…

At lunch, 2 performances & final comments. Thanks were given to the religious community which has allowed us into their space, and to Big Al for inviting me to join the Rome Guitar Circle & their guests on this course.
Now, packing & home. Front door call for 14.20.
