It was in 2019 that we first attended a concert featuring Julia, the niece of Isabelle, my Nordic walking friend. Her niece is a violinist. It's a small world, because there was also a violist in the group: Stanley. He plays the viola da gamba. 

Isabelle suggested that this time we attend a duo concert by Julia and Stanley at a private home. And we're big fans, so Lisa and I booked our tickets. It's different from going to a concert hall: you go to someone's home. We were staying with real patrons, in a Haussmanian flat in the 16th arrondissement. We were seated in a beautifully decorated living room with fine furniture and paintings, as well as two musical instruments: a grand piano and an organ. Finally, after the concert, you can chat with the musicians or the other audience members over a drink and some refreshments. There's often so much you want to tell them. And on Saturday, we were very lucky, because you're going to hear Julia talk to us about this concert.

In the notes that come with the transcript, we'll be taking a closer look at how Julia structures her speech and what linking words she uses. We'll also notice the difference in the use of " nous " and " on " and we'll ask ourselves whether it's possible to say " on " instead of " nous ". On connaît la réponse, you mightt say. No? 

Finally, we'll look at how this collection of collections is also a good idea for your French studies.
