Therese Aune - "In My Quiet Place" (Official Music Video) from Red Eye Transit on Vimeo.
The Boréales festival started officially on Friday. The opening
ceremony took place inside the beautiful Abbaye aux Dames. There were
two interesting photographic exhibitions, Constructing Views and Territory,
the first one about Norwegian architecture and the latter exploring the
boundaries between public and private space in urban landscape in
Latvia (open to the public until 31st December). There are some photos of the opening evening here (FB access needed). If you look closely, you may find some familiar faces...
The highlight of the evening was, however, an open air concert given by a young Norwegian singer-songwriter, Therese Aune, accompanied by a salmon soup and a piece of rye bread. Despite the acoustic conditions that were probably not the easiest and the rather crispy air, Therese's expressive melodies and her warm and quaint voice created a pleasingly dreamy atmosphere. Me like!
Oh and the soup was good, too - maybe just a pinch of more salt next time.
