4 orchestra's this 1/2 year+ ballet

March 20, 2009 at 11:49 AM

This half year I play in 4 orchestra's. One concert is double so I had to choose one. Special pieces are Stravinsky violinconcerto, Holst doubleviolinconcerto. Also a ballet has been made for a piece from symfony in C from Stravinsky. The balletschool put in on Youtube.

I have played violinconcerto's, harpconcerto's, pianoconcerto's bassconcerto's, an operette (Lustige Witwe Franz Lehar with the Vilja song), but never a ballet. It is very difficult to play with all the barchages and symcopic rests. During an rehearsal the dansers say we slowed down and did not play fast enough, like on the cd. They also missed the 1th horn, so they missed some essential accents during that rehearsal. From 3.50-4.07 minutes you can see my orchestra in the dark. Here in their balletschool with the cd

And here my other concerts:
