Reflections on an Unforgettable Trip to Bruges and Ypres

 

 Our recent school trip to Bruges and Ypres was a truly unforgettable experience, combining music, history, and adventure. We began our journey in Bruges, a city known for its fairy-tale charm. One of the highlights was a scenic boat tour through its winding canals. As we floated past medieval buildings, stone bridges, and hidden courtyards, we were amazed by the city’s peaceful beauty and rich history. 

After our boat trip, we had some free time to explore. Naturally, many of us headed straight for the Belgian waffles and world-famous chocolate shops. With bags full of sweet treats and souvenirs, we soaked up the lively atmosphere of the town square and its bustling markets. 

 

Later that day, we took part in an acoustics workshop at the Concertgebouw Brugge, the city’s modern concert hall. We learned how sound behaves in different environments, experimented with our voices, and gained insight into how venues are designed to enhance musical performance — it was fascinating and fun.
