Yesterday was the premiere of "Dame aux camélias" - and it was a huge success! The orchestra played excellently, and the dancers danced very concentrated! The large hall was almost full (1500 people!) And at the end there was huge applause for all, especially for Nicola, Michan, and Alexander, our three soloists. Of course, for Allen, our choreographer - and not least for the great Chimei Philharmonic Orchestra!
Previously, there was some stress - the first flute was the night before had fallen hard, but it played quite well despite pain. In general a fantastic woodwind in the orchestra!
After the evening performance all were then invited by Allen (Wortspielung. ..) in a great restaurant, where a huge buffet was waiting for us. In the very comfortable night party (sing Taiwanese beer, orchestra members who think karaoke to have, etc. ..) I have I think found what many Taiwanese girls, the highlight of the year: on the photo with a conductor - honestly, have at least 50 times I posed ... :-)
On the day of the premiere, I had quickly made a bit of sightseeing, I was in fact not yet really come to - that is, temple after temple after temple in the burning sun ... But beautiful, even a castle found the original in 1653 been built by the Dutch, is "The Chic Khan tower. But even here, the Dutch could not keep state (the times have changed not really www.your-are-not-long-dabei.de ) ... :-)
Today was the second performance, brutally simple clock at 15.00 - and that was a bit harder ... While it was all OK, but Allen said that I was relatively slow at the side with my tempo, and on the part of the ballet were still some bumps. But still it was again a huge success and we have to do this week, three BOs to everything even more beautiful. As of tomorrow, namely re-tried in Taipei, this time with the Taipei Symphony Orchestra. The dancers are free, but I'll continue tomorrow, the orchestra einwidmen in the secrets of the Verdi game. Friday there will premiere at the Cultural Center in Taipei, with DVD and TV recording. Do I perhaps have a haircut before. Maybe with "Happy Ending ?"...
