The concert last night was amazing. It opened with Mack singing four songs, followed by Ellen singing four of hers. Mack's songs were deeper, while Ellen's were more lighthearted as is in keeping with her style. After a short intermission, Mack and Ellen sat in front of us in the audience, while the choir sang ten of their songs. The choir director did a fabulous job of creating choral arrangements of the music. Afterwards both artists said how moving it was to hear their songs in this way.
After the show we returned to the BrewPub (with many Aspen Choral Society members) where Mack and Ellen sat with us. We shared a few brews and talked about the concert. It was great to visit with Mack and chat, hearing stories about how his life, family, and career are progressing. It does not sound like he'll be touring again anytime soon.
Now to head for Denver for our flight home!
