In Behind the Curtain, hosts Soula Parassidis and Norman Reinhardt delve into the raw realities of life as opera singers. In this premiere episode, they reflect on the catalyst moment that led to the founding of their organization, Living Opera. It all began in Paris on October 13, 2016, when Norman faced an unexpected crisis during a high-profile, celebrated performance. This episode invites listeners into the high-stakes world of opera, exploring the unseen pressures that come with it.
Performance anxiety in opera, or any performing art, is a delicate balance between passion and pressure. Soula and Norman unpack the illusion of perfection that often overshadows the joy of performing, discussing the personal and professional toll it takes. They explore the importance of support systems and the fine line between striving for excellence and the harmful pursuit of perfectionism. Through candid conversations, they redefine success in classical music, emphasizing the need for trusted individuals to stay grounded.
By confronting their fears, they reclaim the joy in their craft. Sharing stories of both trauma and triumph, the hosts highlight the value of reframing experiences and returning to the basics of artistry. This helps combat cynicism and encourages a healthier mindset. The episode concludes with a reminder to nurture positivity and joy in both work and life, while acknowledging the inevitable challenges.
A powerful testament to resilience, this episode invites listeners to look beyond the curtain and discover the true essence of performance—an inspiring start to a new podcast series!
