BACKDATED video. theater, music, opera!
Name: mozart
Date: backdated to septeril 4th
Format: video
[ the video starts off with a theme of musical fanfare and no particular image to go along with it, but one might recognize the pulleys, lights, instruments and curtains in the background as belonging to the backstage of a theater. but wait, isn't theater banned?
either way, amadeus appears in frame a moment later. ]
Music is the substance of life. What better way to capture the hearts of a restless population than with a proper melody?
—Good evening, Mirrorbound! Try not to look so tense, now! Many of us are departing for the Black City tomorrow — myself among them — but before that, I have an important announcement.
I and a few others are putting together a production! We're recruiting artistic talent of all disciplines. Painters, tailors, actors, singers, conjurers, illusionists, and, of course, musicians. One can never have too many stagehands, either, so if you find yourself with idle, itching fingers, please make your way to [ [ADDRESS]. curiously, this is a throwaway location a ways away from the actual theater where rehearsals will be taking place ] this Friday and we'll put you right to work!
Don't fret about auditions, if you're willing to participate in a risky endeavor like this, we'll be happy to have you. My faithful producer will direct rehearsals in my absence, and the dates will be set shortly after my return in two weeks.
That's all! Don't miss this brilliant opportunity to spread the good word of music. [ musical theater, to be precise. ]
Addio! Remain healthy, my friends. I leave you with this.
[ more musical fanfare resounds, but this time the image focuses on a message of some sort. what could it mean? ]
( ooc: full disclosure, while parliament is distracted with political affairs, amadeus will be taking advantage and putting on an opera. theater is still very illegal by aefenglom's book, so keep that in mind! feel free to contact me here for questions. )

a quick laugh sounds on the other end. a mezzo-soprano is atypical for his heroines, not to even speak of contralti. ]
Hah. Perhaps it was cruel of me to ask both those questions at once.
I can help you determine your range, if you like. You sing quite often, I take it?
no subject
Not professionally, but I do sing.
[ It's one of her many talents. ]
Shall I audition?
no subject
[ this production is a very special case, and the more mirrorbound lending their unique efforts to it, the more convincing the whole thing will be. ]
But determining your vocal range will help me place you proper. And it's always helpful to know.
no subject
[ She pauses. ]
I imagine in person would be more ideal for determining pitch and so on?
