Operatic role debuts at the Imaginary Opera Ensemble
Role debuts (Rollendebüts) are the first performance of a role on stage. They are an important experience for singers and also play a big role in their professional lives. This is because the question of whether someone has already sung the part on stage is decisive for an engagement. This is because you must be familiar with the stage and musical processes.
Our role debuts take place without a conductor and prompter. This means that the singers cannot expect any support during the performance. Therefore, they must study the parts much more carefully and be mentally more active on stage to avoid blackouts.
