  • Tecwyn Evans Bliver Musikchef På Den Jyske Opera
    Pressemeddelelse Aarhus den 14. marts 2018 Tecwyn Evans bliver musikchef på Den Jyske Opera Den New Zealandske dirigent Tecwyn Evans er udpeget som musikchef på Den Jyske Opera fra 1. juni 2018. Musikchefen refererer direkte til operachef Philipp Kochheim. Tecwyn Evans vil de kommende sæsoner dirigere et udvalg af koncerter og enkelte operaopsætninger samtidig med, at han får det kunstneriske ansvar for Den Jyske Operas Kor, med 24 professionelle operasangere. Derudover vil han i tæt samarbejde med operachef Philipp Kochheim tegne den musikalske linje, stå for kontakt til gæstedirigenter og dialog med landsdelsorkestrene. ”I første omgang var vi på udkig efter en kordirigent, men jeg er ekstremt glad for at have fundet en musikchef i Tecwyn Evans. Evans kan ikke kun tage hånd om den kunstneriske udvikling af Den Jyske Operas Kor, men er også en vidunderlig dirigent, en stor stemmeekspert, og som en sjældenhed mestrer han den balance mellem orkestergraven og sangerne, som er så vigtig for opera som kunstform”, udtaler operachef Philipp Kochheim. Tecwyn Evans er et kendt ansigt på Den Jyske Opera. Han dirigerede i 2017 turnéen 70 års opera og i 2016 på Madama Butterfly-turnéen. I 2018 står han i februar-marts for den musikalske ledelse på hele danmarksturnéen med La Traviata og vil i december dirigere årets julekoncerter.

  • New Zealand Singers Taking Flight
    NEW ZEALAND SINGERS TAKING FLIGHT Research Project Report On Ways Of Strengthening The Preparedness Of Young New Zealand Singers For Advanced Study And Career Paths Based In The UK By Jenny Wollerman FOREWORD BY KIRI TE KANAWA I am often asked if there is something in the New Zealand air or water that produces remarkable singing voices - we are renowned for it internationally, and I am always surprised and delighted by the number of my compatriots I see excelling in opera houses around the world. Yet, as with any serious endeavour in life, success in singing is not just about having a lovely voice. Singing is a highly competitive business, and there are always many more outstanding young singers than there are roles for them to sing. Having a great voice is just the starting point for an international career - our aspiring opera stars also have to be better than their rivals in many other essential areas: musicianship and intelligence, work ethic, tenacity, technical preparation.... In addition, young New Zealand singers often find themselves competing on an uphill playing field. Not only are they as far away from home as it is possible to be and usually very short of funds to boot, they may also be less advanced in their vocal development than their competitors. One of my motivations in establishing the Kiri Te Kanawa Foundation was to find innovative and constructive ways to assist young New Zealand singers with their international career development. It's relatively easy to give young singers a big cheque and send them on their way hoping for the best, but I have always thought that a more considered and strategic approach might produce better results.
