Once a year le chateau Rabouchet which is about 10 minutes from us, opens its park for a concert. Last year France was celebrating its shared heritage with Canada and a group from Nova Scotia performed the musical traditions of Acadia. This year a woodwind trio composed of a French oboist, a Swiss bass saxophone, and a Russian clarinetist played a wide range of music from opera to contemporary. The program is arranged and supported by our Department, the Gironde. After the concert, the chateau offered wine and hors d'orvres. This event, like the marche du producteurs was not as well attended as last year. I am beginning to think that perhaps there are fewer tourists in the region this year due to the economy.
