― Wes HI DEREson (HI DERE), Tuesday, 17 March 2009 15:00 (sixteen years ago)

shit I should have listed conductors, too, because then I could namedrop Ozawa, Previn, Levine and Spano (lol he dated a friend of mine lol)

― Wes HI DEREson (HI DERE), Tuesday, 17 March 2009 15:05 (sixteen years ago)

― congratulations (n/a), Tuesday, 17 March 2009 15:05 (sixteen years ago)

wtf

― Surmounter, Tuesday, 17 March 2009 15:06 (sixteen years ago)

Everyone after Dave Brubeck is an opera singer; I think they've all sung at the Met...?

― Wes HI DEREson (HI DERE), Tuesday, 17 March 2009 15:06 (sixteen years ago)

i did not know this about you!

― Surmounter, Tuesday, 17 March 2009 15:06 (sixteen years ago)

25 or 6 to 4.

― Mark G, Tuesday, 17 March 2009 15:08 (sixteen years ago)

Yeah sur, I've done a lot of professional/professional-level ensemble singing gigs, both concert/oratorio and fully-staged opera.

The last thing I did (outside of pro church choir stuff) was this: http://www.operaboston.org/operas_marksman.php

― Wes HI DEREson (HI DERE), Tuesday, 17 March 2009 15:08 (sixteen years ago)

Gonna troll this thread by voting for Amy Grant and imploring everyone else to do likewise.

anyway i kinda have to vote relyea bc <3 <3 <3

― tehresa, Tuesday, 17 March 2009 16:03 (sixteen years ago)

wow I suck at namedropping ;_;

― Wes HI DEREson (HI DERE), Tuesday, 17 March 2009 17:19 (sixteen years ago)

One of my former conductors was so infamous for his inveterate namedropping that he became a punchline for us. he would always talk about some fabulous dinner he had with various famous classical/opera people that culminated in a totally banal event; it was like he ended every story with "... and then I asked Flicka to pass me the salt!"

(tehr you are probably going to be the only one who will find that funny)

― Wes HI DEREson (HI DERE), Tuesday, 17 March 2009 17:23 (sixteen years ago)

i find that funny because Flicka is a horse.

― Wes HI DEREson (HI DERE), Tuesday, 17 March 2009 17:39 (sixteen years ago)

I voted Vanessa Williams because I was seriously angry when she was de-throned as Miss America. Apparently I am still not over it.

― Sara R-C, Tuesday, 17 March 2009 18:00 (sixteen years ago)

Feel like I should cast my vote for Roberta Flack, but instead I'm gonna vote for Stephanie Blythe, who I am looking forward to seeing in Il Trittico next year.

Don't know where the nickname came from, but did you guys know that "flicka" means girl in Swedish? Wherefore Abba's Swedish language version of "Honey Honey" has the lyric "honey honey flicka lilla."

What about rising star Piotr Beczała, have you crossed paths with him?

― moe greene dolphin street (James Redd and the Blecchs), Tuesday, 17 March 2009 20:19 (sixteen years ago)

a nice voice on that one!

did anyone hear flicka on wait wait, don't tell me? it was kind of awesome.

― tehresa, Tuesday, 17 March 2009 20:49 (sixteen years ago)

I haven't crossed paths with him, no. There's an off chance I will be in an opera with Stephanie Blythe next season but it's kind of up in the air at the moment.

actually Opera Boston is gonna be the shit next season: http://www.operaboston.org/operas_0910season.php

― Wes HI DEREson (HI DERE), Tuesday, 17 March 2009 20:51 (sixteen years ago)

oooh. she was sooo good in orfeo!

― tehresa, Tuesday, 17 March 2009 20:52 (sixteen years ago)

Yeah, she sang "In The Beginning" for us back in... 2002? 2003? Fucking phenomenal.

― Wes HI DEREson (HI DERE), Tuesday, 17 March 2009 20:54 (sixteen years ago)

like she seriously changed 'che faro' for me. i sang it in college and apparently was good at it, but i always thought it was boring. hearing it with more mature musicality and her voice/phrasing completely renewed my <3 for it!

― tehresa, Tuesday, 17 March 2009 20:55 (sixteen years ago)

Probably the one good thing to having done limited, private voice study and having that primarily be in German art songs is that I've had few opportunities to have my ego crushed by hearing someone else blow a song I've performed out of the water in a way I could only dream of doing. On the downside, though, I don't have many examples of what I could do with the few songs I know.

ah well

― Wes HI DEREson (HI DERE), Tuesday, 17 March 2009 21:02 (sixteen years ago)

shouldn't the unwarranted high fives be on this list?

― mookieproof, Tuesday, 17 March 2009 21:04 (sixteen years ago)

excellent point, mr. proof!

― tehresa, Tuesday, 17 March 2009 21:04 (sixteen years ago)

I sang for them, not with them. Also we were slightly less famous than a damp sock.

― Wes HI DEREson (HI DERE), Tuesday, 17 March 2009 21:05 (sixteen years ago)

aw!

I still can't believe Shawn Colvin had the nerve to roll up on the Boston Pops in an ugly sweater that looked like it was made of hairballs and act all diva-ish. Every time she made a mistake in rehearsal, she would bring everything to a halt and whine at KL to make the orchestra follow her. It was fucking terrible.

― Wes HI DEREson (HI DERE), Wednesday, 18 March 2009 17:11 (sixteen years ago)

this reminds me of when m4ndy p4tinkin showed up 45 min before curtain (preventing us from being able to open the house on time), switched around his stage set-up during his sound check, then had the nerve to talk shit about our venue during the show about how the piano wasn't in the right place and we couldn't accommodate the way he really wanted to interact with his beloved audience.

― tehresa, Wednesday, 18 March 2009 17:30 (sixteen years ago)

not that diva behavior should ever be encouraged/excused, but at least M4ndy P4tinkin is famous

― Wes HI DEREson (HI DERE), Wednesday, 18 March 2009 17:31 (sixteen years ago)

haha

― tehresa, Wednesday, 18 March 2009 17:32 (sixteen years ago)

― Wes HI DEREson (HI DERE), Wednesday, 18 March 2009 18:58 (sixteen years ago)

its a sweater!

― ice cr?m, Wednesday, 18 March 2009 19:38 (sixteen years ago)

Yeah, don't wear a sweater when you're performing with the Pops. Rehearsal is one thing, wear whatever you want to that, but spring the $80 for a non-embarrassing concert top, you whiny harpy.
