in 2008, ze frank has started a new project, which unfortunately ended before i even noticed it. it’s titled “color wars”.

my favourite competitions:

notice the book of the first one’s bronze winner?
it’s “life, the universe, and everything” from the hitchhiker trilogy. timeless literature! :)

“O Come, Little Children” (“Ihr Kinderlein kommet”) on nose recorders

update #2: mom took some photos during our performance for the family. they’re online now.

update #3: there’s another clip of our christmas caroling on december 24th.
