So here I am sitting at the doelen enjoying my free tea on a very swanky white couch. I'm here for a choral ensemble concert. The codarts chamber choir ensemble is singing the Brahms Gesänge, Weltliche Gesänge, Neue Liebeslieder and the Schumann Spanisches Liederspiel. The choir is made entirely from Codarts students and get this: SO ARE THE SOLOISTS...all of them. That's right, my friends, there's no special guests to fill the seats....people are here because they're interested in supporting young people in the arts. In fact there is an entire concert series held right here-- where the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra plays--featuring only students from Codart's classical music academy. Oh and in May, the Codarts symphony orchestra will be playing under the batôn of Yannick Nézet-Séguin himself. I must say I am thoroughly thrilled to see the show.
Oh and there are 12 soloists...at the intermission 2 of them got approached for gigs...how's THAT for opportunity?
