In the choir since 2018
Presently, working with Teodor Currentzis is definitely the brightest part of my life. I first met him 7 or 8 years ago and instantly realized what a unique and otherworldly phenomenon he was. Yet as much as I admired his creative output, I could not even imagine that the audience only got to see the tip of the iceberg that his actual work comprised. You can only realize its true scale once you become directly involved in it. All his projects are a chance for each of us to discover something we have yet to acknowledge about ourselves. This happens every single time — can you believe that? While speaking to the whole troupe, he manages to communicate with each member on a personal level. This is my impression, at least: I am but a drop in the ocean, yet Maestro is speaking to me. And we cannot imagine it any other way. We grow due to this dialogue in which both parties trust each other unconditionally. This is amazing!
