“I am completely focused on school. I thought: ‘I’m going to school, this is Juilliard, I have to make the most of it.’ So I signed up for so many classes that I worked from 8 a.m. to midnight. Non-stop,” he said.
“It was beyond my wildest dreams, the fact that I actually get to work for such a wonderful theater… and work with conductor Yannick (Nézet-Séguin), who is the sound director. main music,” added Orlinski. “It was something unbelievable. To my surprise I got my own Metropolitan Opera pass. ”
Orlinski is almost as famous for his breakout dance, which he started at the age of 18, as well as his singing.
“It really combines everything that I love. So the music, the freedom and the acrobatic style… it’s another way to express yourself,” he said. - Reuters
