Production work with the soloists. Mark is driving the process but Attilio is with every step.
Liz's observations, and some photos:

There is a break in the action and Sally-Anne walks over for some water. Richard, the language coach, jumps up to give her his notes and corrections from the previous piece she has just sung. They quietly go over the sounds as she sips the water. Mark rises to grab the moment with Fiona and David about the scene they have just done together and adjusts their positions and actions. Sean, the assistant director, rushes over to Sara with further instructions. Attilio takes the opportunity to move over to Ben’s harpsichord to talk through something in the last segment.
So many details - so many aspects go into one scene.
All this will end up appearing as a seamless, easy and continous whole. This is how every day we are building up the whole production.

Meanwhile, Hamish works on the costumes.
