Alpine Music in Murren

We were told we had a surprise waiting for us after dinner tonight, and what a splendid surprise it was. Tara arranged for two local musicians to entertain us with an alpine horn and an accordion.

Sitting on the hotel's back deck, with a panoramic view of the Swiss Alps, we listened intently as they performed for an hour. Then they encouraged members of our group to try the alpine horn. I didn't attempt it but most of the teens and a few adults did. We had a good laugh over some of the sounds they made and we learned how difficult it is to play this unique instrument.









They concluded the show by leading us in a circle dance through the hotel. 


An alpine concert is a wonderful way to end a day. YOLO!!
