Ana: (nodding) Absolutely stunning. It's moments like these that make you appreciate life's simple pleasures.
Daniel: (checking the time) Alright, everyone, let's head into the city center. We've got some exploring to do before our final rehearsal this afternoon.
Kate: So wasn't yesterday our last?
Daniel: It was supposed to, but now Mr. Lewis has written that we can do a little more practice today because we won't be able to tomorrow. See the brochure, from 10 in the morning to 10 in the evening is the program. Which means there is no chance.
Ana: What time is our final rehearsal?
Daniel: At 3 p.m
*As they made their way through the bustling streets of Split, the group soaked in the vibrant atmosphere, taking in the sights and sounds of the historic city.*
Max: (pointing) Check out that street performer over there. Shall we stop and listen for a bit?
Andrea: (smiling) Definitely. It's always inspiring to see other artists in action.
*They paused to listen to the soulful melodies drifting from the street performer's guitar, nodding along to the rhythm as they exchanged knowing glances.*
Kate: (excitedly) I've heard there's a local market nearby. Shall we go take a look?
David: (enthusiastically) Sounds like a plan. I could use some fresh fruit for a snack later.
*They navigated their way through the maze of narrow alleyways until they reached the bustling market square, where vendors displayed an array of colorful fruits, artisan crafts, and local delicacies.*
Ana: (sampling a piece of fruit) Mmm, this mango is delicious. Anyone else want to try?
Teodora: (eyeing a handmade bracelet) These bracelets are beautiful. I think I'll get one as a souvenir.

Daniel: (addressing the group) Alright, everyone, let's focus up. We've got a lot to cover today, so let's make every minute count.
*The group launched into their medley, seamlessly transitioning between "Heartbeat," "First Kiss," and other traditional folk tunes. Each note resonated with precision, blending together to create a tapestry of sound that filled the rehearsal space.*
*As they performed, they caught the attention of a fellow musician who had been rehearsing nearby. Intrigued by the harmonious melodies drifting through the air, he approached the group during a break.*
Musician: (smiling) I couldn't help but overhear your performance. You guys sound incredible!
Teodora: (grateful) Thank you so much! We're FolkBeat Harmony, and we're preparing for a music festival here in Split.
Musician: (extending a hand) I'm Marko, a local musician. I must say, your fusion of traditional and contemporary music is truly captivating.
Andrea: (pleased) It's great to meet you, Marko. We love incorporating elements of our culture into our music.
