The orchestra certainly changed their tune (pun intended) at last night's rehearsal. A smiling, warm, stage full of musicians greeted the Maestro with good humor and pleasantries. I suppose they feel he is worthy to hold the baton after Wednesday night's passionate and productive effort. It couldn't hurt that he released us a full half hour early, either! The man is gracious and light hearted while being professional and intense. The perfect combination for any conductor. He is truly a marvel.
Got to hear the tenor Christopher Pfund last night for the first time. He performs his intense solo from the orchestra seating level in the audience. It is powerful, to say the least.
Tonight, the show opens...is that what you say in orchestral situations? Or is that only for theatrics?
Well, toi toi to me, any how.
