Day 1: Concert in Acropolis Mall

In the early evening, the crew trooped off to the Acropolis Mall, where they performed the pieces they rehearsed earlier. As they set up the performance area and got into their places, there was a great sense of expectation among the audience. The performance area was on the ground floor of the long central atrium of the mall, where people on the gound and upper two levels could view and listen to the concert. At any given time, there were some 100-150 people listening to the Traveling Notes youths, both Dominican and American, perform.
