Juterbog
Johan Tetzel was in this medieval town and was a preacher who sold indulgences for absolution of sins, but really to help the Archbishop of Mainz pay off his debts. This is a coffer of his.

Terezin
We spent half the day at the concentration camp Terezin and the town of Theresienstadt, which basically became a ghetto for prisoners after they expelled the town residents to make room for the increasing number of prisoners. I did not want to post pictures. Then the other choir members arrived, and now we start the part of the trip with them, with our first concert here in Prague tomorrow.
Luther Choral Festival in Berlin
One more rehearsal to go before the performance Saturday evening. 280 singers from the US have been working with Helmut Rilling on Bach's "Ein Fest Burg" and two Mendelssohn pieces, "Wir Glauben all an einen Gott" and the gorgeous, touching Psalm 42, "Wie der Hirsch schreit." Beautiful.
