BE PREPARED med Eivind Gullberg Jensen & Sascha Goetzel

When conductors worldwide all of a sudden were without their instrument, Quarantine Classics and Dirigentløftet teamed up with leading conductors in sharing sessions. Music Directors Sascha Goetzel and Eivind Gullberg Jensen created a series to share how they work to prepare for being in front of the orchestra. During Quarantine this series developed to be important arena for ambitious young conductors from all over the world. To be inspired, to be supported and to BE PREPARED.

It's all about – to be prepared for the orchestra. We will talk about problems that can arrive and give options of how to solve it. We will also build awareness of how to read the score in such a way, to anticipate the challenges - not for the conductor alone, but also the orchestra. So before the young conductors give the 1st upbeat - the already have awareness and prepared a toolbox to achieve their goals with the musicians of the orchestra, musically and technically.

Seson 2 of Be prepared is all about musical connections. Music life is slowly getting back on track and we prepare for live master classes next season focusing on the core repertoire building the foundation for any 21st century Music Director.
