It's awesome that SST group has expanded! It's fun to meet Alchemist, Pointfrost and his girlfriend, joshrob and his girlfriend, DallasTreado's wife (pity Dallas couldn't be here). It's a pleasure to meet strong Dutch group again (Sirius, Dutchbat, Girlfriend, Scorefreak, Caliburn, hwh), plus Polish SST members I also already met before: Tonks, Olaziolek, marokw. I enjoy every moment spent here!
And what about concert yesterday?
I'm happy I've got another FMF concert under my belt. The venue is still awesome, the music is a pleasure, atmosphere and people are fantastic.
Disappointment for me was that this time we had no translation of our concert hosts into english (we had great guy doing the translation work last year - Piotr Krasnowolski - I really enjoyed my chat with him about translator work during one of festival meetings).
Joe Hisaishi was conducting and playing some of the piano parts. Still Tan Dun remains my fav conductor but it was a great pleasure to observe Joe Hisaishi's happy face moments during some of the pieces we had heard (especially Kikujiro and Totoro).
We've just started and I'm already happy! _________________ <i>"The piano keys are black and white,

This first day was indeed full of wonders
To meet SST members and also composers in flesh is a great pleasure! _________________ "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe" - Blade Runner |

Hi! I was so shocked to see you, SST group, in Cracow! Although I was too shy to talk to you ; )
Hisaishi's concert was amazing yet , as for me , too short! I have to say that one of my dreams actually came true yesterday.Also it was really nice to meet Hisaishi on today's meeting too ; ) He's such a funny and warm-hearted person!
And sadly we couldn't meet Klaus Badelt today... (maybe next year?) _________________ `(...)

I also liked Witcher 2 Suite. It was a bit different than on the cd, but still nice though.
As of day one, Kikujiro's theme - heard it for the first time and I've loved it. I've just ordered a CD from cdconnection |

Hi Hello-goodby!
Welcome to SST!
Don't be shy! Talk to us!
I'd be happy to meet you in person.

Well... maybe next time since I'm already at home ...Unfortunetely, I couldn't stay and listen other concerts. I had a train after Meet&Greet with Hisaishi-san!
I've heard that FF concert was amazing(?) _________________ `(...)
