Last week, tuesday, June 28. at the Alte Oper in Frankfurt...

Approximately at 20:45h Tori enters the stage, waving, blowing kisses to audience which cheers excitingly...

Then she sat down at her humongous Bösendorfer grand piano and started to play...

...and how beautiful she played, I can't explain! The set on the stage was very minimalistic - only the Bösendorfer, two organs and a piano. Only a few, well placed lights and a octagonal screen above her... and what's best: her alone without a accompaning band!

Did I mention that she played a glorious concert? BTW - she was as talkative as on other gigs, but that did'nt bother me at all. There were a lot of highlights, but the most extraordinary had been the version of "the piano man" by Billy Joel. One word: awesome.


But all good things have to come to an end, and so, after more than two hours of finest music, after two encores, Tori bounced off the stage & we were leaving the Alte Oper into a pretty warm and damp Frankfurt-City-Night...


cheers.
