Mich dünkt ich kenne diesen Klageruf

Tuesday we had our first rehearsal with orchestra. Something totally different than piano rehearsals. It's no longer the stage director (Romeo Castellucci) who is in charge, but the conductor, Hartmut Haenchen. This made the rehearsal a bit chaotic for us but it was good to have the feeling of the orchestra during our "action". I think everybody felt a bit disoriented but luckily we had again a piano rehearsal yesterday (Wednesday). It was a relief that we could go through the third act from the beginning till the end (with the different scenes in the correct order). Everybody was very concentrated and I had the impression that we were as quiet as possible on stage.
We still need to change some technical issues, but I am very confident that the artistic team will find some good solutions.
This evening we are again joined with the orchestra.
