How Bass-Baritones Amuse Themselves (David Bižić and Yuri Kissin)

Yuri Kissin

So this is how baritones and basses kill time when they are not on duty during the orchestra rehearsal. Well, some basses, baritones, and bass-baritones. And probably many tenors and counter tenors, and maybe even some sopranos, mezzos, and contraltos. Yuri Kissin and David Bižić give us a peek at what goes on in the back row when the conductor isn't watching.

There are parts of Don Giovanni that you just don't get to do if you are a bass-baritone. Say, Donnas Elvira or Anna. I think it'd be fun to have a beer or two with these wild and crazy guys. If you have a low tolerance for silliness, do not watch this video!

At YT, the poster calls this: 

A different Don Giovanni orchestra rehearsal 

I'd call it: When Serbia Meets Siberia
