Day 38 - Doblinger's

Apartment in Salzburg

Today we woke up early so Dom could catch her flight. We all ate breakfast in the airport at a little cafe. It was ok, but I prefer breakfast made by me, for me. After Dom went through the gate, Tante Carole and I drove into the city. She needed to stop at the bank, and I needed to stop at the famous music store, Doblinger’s. I bought 3 books/pieces. One was ’16 Easy Pieces’, for Laura and I to share. And for Katelyn I want to get Mendelsohn’s something-or-other in D minor, but they only had it for two pianos. This is definitely a duet that is over my head. So I got her a piece by Mahler and a piece by Ravel. I’m really excited about the Ravel piece, because it is ‘La mere L’oye’, which I think the Youth Orchestra played in Ossiach and Opatija. It was really good, so I can’t wait to hear Katelyn play it. With the money Dom gave me, I bought my aunt a book called ‘Vienna for the Music Lover’. I think she’ll like it. Then we stopped at the house before driving back to Salzburg. We ate lunch at a beer pub around the corner. I read all afternoon, before pasta for dinner.
