Rehearsals in Ostrava
Rehearsal in Philharmonic Hall (Photo: RV)Last week Ostrava Days was all about seminars lectures and individual meetings and by the end of the day drinking beer in one of the local pubs.
This weeks schedule has changed things a little. Now we have all of the above plus rehearsals. This puts a strain on everyone, but once in awhile you see one of the participants disappear for a couple of hours to catch up sleep.
This morning and afternoon I withdraw for a while, just to be on my own for a moment and to do some work for myself. Yesterday I helped out with a rehearsal lead by Petr Kotik. I have prepared some audio stuff for Louis Andriessen's La Passione. This piece is going to be performed during the final concert of the festival at the end of next week.
Another thing that is about to happen is the upcoming rehearsal on Saterday with Zsolt Nagy. We are going to work on Blink Blink with Ostravská Banda for the premiere next Wednesday and I am really looking forward to that.
