Outside the Cultural Information Center, Podgorica, Montenegro
Our first concert in Montenegro was at the Cultural Information Center and filmed for public television. Thanks to the magnificent Maja Popovic for organizing everything. She brings a wide range of great arts programs to her center and we were honored to be a part of it. Here are some highlights from the broadcast.
The next day we had a workshop with students. There are many talented students there and we were happy to work with them in a workshop where we inquired: “How does the blues give you a chance to express emotions?”
Workshop in Podgorica. "What gives you the blues?"
As is our custom, we got everybody up and moving, then playing together to explore the power of the blues!
