Far from the madness in France…perfect days in Sydney: A high school band entertains us with a Big Band Jazz
performance outdoors at Martin Place. We accidentally discover a fun Rock & Roll exhibit “What
a Life Rock Photography by Tony Mott” at State Library of New South Wales with it’s grand Ionic columns, then meander through the Royal Botanical Gardens.

We cap the day with a rousing evening concert of Mussorgsky orchestrated by Ravel, Pictures at an Exhibition, conducted by Miguel Harth-Bedoya at Sydney Opera House, still aglow in French red white and blue.
