Trombones de Costa Rica Music Festival
Sunday, September 16th, 2007If there aren’t already enough reasons to visit Costa Rica, an event held October 13-16 should entice you to make the trip. The 2007 Costa Rican Music Festival features the members of TCR with special guest Jonas Byland and takes place at a beautiful mountain resort outside San Jose. Airfare is generally very cheap; I booked a round trip ticket from O’Hare for $263 last year. Attendance fees are also quite reasonable, especially when compared to festivals in the US and Europe.
I’ve translated a lot of the event information from the Trombones de Costa Rica website using freetranslation.com. Do not be afraid if you are not fluent in the Spanish language. During last year’s festival we were able to communicate musically and learn from each through non-verbal communication. If you have ever wanted to visit Costa Rica maybe now is the time to do so.
