Show Notes

We’ve been dipping into the LPO Offstage archives and revisiting our favourite episodes. In this one, YolanDa Brown sits down with baritone Roddy Williams, horn player Johnny Ryan and cellist Kristina Blaumane to hear what singers can learn from instrumental playing, and why the issues of balancing a voice with an orchestra may not be what you expect. 


YolanDa also discovers how the players transition from the concert stage to the opera pit and back again, and finds out about the surround sound experience Roddy has when he’s got some bars rest…


Plus, Roddy explains the lengths singers have to go to to protect their voices… 


Produced by Tandem Productions for the London Philharmonic Orchestra.
