Day 6 🀩

Day 6

Today we had our last Warm up outside on the lawn before we leave for Amsterdam. We spent the morning with the usual lessons and masterclasses. In the afternoon we had practice performances of our ensemble pieces and chamber groups. During this we also worked on our stage presence that Elsina helped us with yesterday. It was funny to see how everyone performed differently and we helped each other with suggestions. We now feel very prepared for our concert tomorrow!

At lunchtime Emily announced that the NTKs have sold over 100 tickets for the concert so we are looking forward to playing to a big audience tomorrow. The prize for the best ticket seller was tied between Nina, Marloes and Jannemein, who all sold 13 tickets each!

All afternoon we practiced our flute choir pieces ready for tomorrow and worked with the fantastic singer and actor Sterre, who is singing in the concert tomorrow. She is the character Luna in Luna's Magic Flute, which is a story involving many animals. It's been really fun to mix flute playing with acting as this is new for most of us. Sterre had some really funny stories to tell us afterwards about how she once had to play dressed up as a Barbie, and once sung a concert whilst hanging from a crane!

Our bags are packed and we are looking forward to seeing you tomorrow at the Concertgebouw. We are very excited!

See you there!
