Soprano extraordinaire Louise Alder joins Netty for tea in Glyndebourne. Louise, who is currently performing as Cleopatra in Handel's Giulio Cesare, enlightens us with her family, educational and versatile singing background, her passion for musical theatre, and her multilingual talents.

Louise, takes us behind the scenes of the opera Giulio Cesare. She shares her on-stage experiences and talks about juggling a diverse vocal repertoire, as well as the demands of singing and dancing. Louise also shares her adventures in Frankfurt and takes a deep dive into languages, from which we might learn a thing or two! Catch Louise Alder and the OAE in Glyndebourne this summer!

Tea with Netty is the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment’s podcast hosted by viola player Annette Isserlis (Netty). Over a cuppa (or something a little stronger…), Netty chats with a variety of conductors, players and other guests as she ‘spills the tea’ on the side of classical music you don’t normally hear.
