Excerpt from an interview with Eckehard Stier on Kiss my Arts, Auckland
At what stage does the orchestra rehearse with the singers?
In a concert performance such as this, the singers get together with the full orchestra quite late on – four or five days before the performance. It makes the rehearsals very intense. Of course, everyone will have been practising their part for a long time before that. We’ve also held singing rehearsals with piano, and I really should acknowledge the work of repetiteur Rosie Barnes, and Andrea Katz, a wonderful vocal coach who has worked very closely with the singers.
