Dialogues des Carmélites - Royal Opera House


Today was our first rehearsal on the stage of the Opera House and with it an appreciation of how big this stage truly is. I thought I would post some of my sketches from my journal to show my musings on the project, from the first rehearsal back in January. Most of these sketches were quick drawings related to the story of ‘Dialogue des Carmelites’ and the divide between the peasants and aristocracy. Here is a nun, based on the theme of hope and devotion that has come across to me; much more so since seeing the live performance of ‘Salve Regina’. 
Also I have got to hear the beautiful voice of Anush Hovhannisyan and watch the incredible Anna Prohaska in rehearsals!!
