As we were leaving the museum, we came across this group playing at the entrance. A huge crowd had gathered and were listening raptly. I can’t explain the profound effect it had on me – it was a beautiful, moving performance, with their music echoing in halls of the venerable Rijksmuseum. My husband recorded it for me (below), so I’d like to share it with you.

I just now uploaded my all my remaining images, so this ends my Rijksmuseum gallery, as short as it is ;-). We leave for Barcelona early tomorrow morning, so may (or may not!) be away from Pbase for several days. Thanks so much for all the kind comments, and if you get to Amsterdam, definitely don’t miss this great museum!
