Predivna večer uz note koje paraju srce i griju dušu. Glazbenici su svojom virtuoznošću, ali i nevjerojatnom toplinom, uspjeli prenijeti svu humanost i nadu koju Gospodar prstenova predstavlja. Intimna atmosfera pod svijećama samo je dodatno naglasila magiju trenutka. Iskustvo koje ću dugo pamtiti.
