I tried to look around for older people who might have snuck inside, but all I saw were young people. The staff did briefly check the tickets upon entry, but didn't scan them, and didn't ask for IDs or passports. I guess that even if you're above 30, as long as you look young enough, it would be easy to get inside the venue. BB-8 and JTN 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just realised who I was sat with for the rehearsal… Am under 30. Got a ticket for tomorrow but thought I’d take my chances at the rehearsal today (despite sold out / no ticket). Ended up asking people outside if they had a spare ticket. Got one off a nice lady. We sit together in the auditorium. I ask how she got a paper ticket, obviously she’s important! Says she’s worked with John. I see this post after. Had heard of Anne from the Vienna concert. Obviously it turns out to be her! Didn’t realise till I saw this message, googled her, and thought “looks familiar” 😂 I was very grateful for the (free) ticket!

Popular Post BuzzLightyear 143 Posted December 12, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 12, 2022 Good morning everyone, what a wonderful experience! It took me a while to realize what was happening. Now, back home in Germany, I would like to share a few impressions with you... Already the moment I entered the opera gave me goose bumps. What a beautiful auditorium! The musicians were all very relaxed and had a lot of fun on stage. When John Williams stepped in front of the orchestra to thunderous applause, he greeted the musicians with a little "Buongiorno". I don't want to go into the individual pieces here, because some of you will still see the great concert tonight. It was interesting to see how John Williams worked with the musicians. Here and there he had little details to remark on. At one point he said something to the first cellist as they continued to play. John Williams was in a good mood himself and laughed a lot. At one point between two pieces he just stood there looking with delight at the magnificent ornaments on the stage ceiling. I think it must be a great experience for him to conduct at La Scala! Those were a few little impressions I was able to capture. I will remember this rehearsal as a great whole experience, with an electrifying energy, lots of fun and wonderful music!! I'm sure tonight's concert will be an unforgettable event and I'm happy for everyone who can be there. Have fun and enjoy it!
