Remember, you can also participate in the Bards Session to start right after the concert, and get free music scores from Zakena! We will be there to help you in any way we can, and join in if requested.
And of course there will be free food and drinks for everyone, again courtesy of Zakena Plip and the Bards Association!
I had to lower my graphics settings to avoid lag while playing, so my screenshots are really awful. Still, I thought I should post these before this thread goes too stale.
A small crowd gathered in the plaza for the event. Soanna, a renowned bard and teacher of musical arts, was also present. She had specifically traveled from Quintherion to Hydlaa to join the event after Zakena's invitation.
A stage was set up at the feet of the statue of Laanx for the performance to follow. A stall was also set up near the stage, where Larili was serving food and her renowned beverages to all attendees for free.
The event started with the concert, where 14 songs by Zakena where performed by herself, accompanied by Migg.

The event attracted a small crowd, that stayed on for the Bards Session.
The attendants stayed on for the second part, the Bards Session. Three musicians answered the call and stepped forward to participate in the session: Damola Etedi, Esanor Serich and Gonger Xaraha!

Three promising bards emerged from the crowd to participate.
Zakena handed out music sheets suitable for training, and the three bards, directed by Zakena and under the instructions of Soanna, practiced playing the songs together. The bards displayed promising progress and the session was concidered by the participants a successfull one. Hopefully this will encourage more bards to actively take part in simillar music events in the future!
