TH: I love contemporary music. It takes a while to relate to it. But I became enthusiastic about new music as a harpsichordist. #askandreas

TH: After the 18th century, there's not a lot of harpsichord music until the 20th century. #askandreas

TH: I love the harpsichord works by Ligeti and Gorecki. I think it makes a great balance to the early music. #askandreas

One of our staff members asked: Andreas, do you ever explore you baritone voice? #askandreas

Musica Viva Australia @MusicaVivaAU

AS: Yes - in fact, during these concerts, I will be singing a Purcell drinking song in a baritone voice. #askandreas

AS: And I also some songs that use sprechgesang need to be sung with my chest voice. #askandreas

Our CEO asked: and here you are at the top of your career and you're still studying? #askandreas

AS: Apart from me, he is the person who knows my voice the best. #askandreas

AS: His presence alone triggers the right reflexes. #askandreas

AS: He taught me that singing should be effortless. #askandreas

AS: Sometimes, singers get too focused on being expressive, which means adding pressure. #askandreas

2011-03-04 15:19:36
Musica Viva Australia @MusicaVivaAU

AS: But you have to focus on finding the "target words" and learning how to connect the word with its meaning while singing. #askandreas

Musica Viva Australia @MusicaVivaAU

AS: But there can be too much of it and it loses the natural flow. #askandreas

2011-03-04 15:20:21
Musica Viva Australia @MusicaVivaAU

AS: I try to get music to flow gently without focusing on shaping everything in detail. #askandreas

2011-03-04 15:20:47
Musica Viva Australia @MusicaVivaAU

AS: Which is difficult, because I taught all my students that they had to "shape their words" ... #askandreas

AS: A few years ago, I even produced a film about my singing teacher. He has a very interesting past. #askandreas

AS: He was on stage with Boris Karloff, Margaret Hamilton. Then his mother died and he wanted to be a classical singer. #askandreas
