Alongside well known operaperformers such as Eva-Maria Westbroek there's Jacob and Raphael (boys soloists of Nieuw Amsterdams Kinderkoor), the next generation of operastars, in Alban Berg's Wozzeck. How do they prepare for their role, and what do they think of Wozzeck and opera in general? Watch this behind the scenes video and find out. 

ABOUT THE OPERA
In composing Wozzeck, Alban Berg wrote one of the most innovative operas of the twentieth century. This poignant work shows how a vulnerable person can be driven to commit a deed of despair. Wozzeck became an instant classic, and its expressive power remains undiminished today.
