A Vienna Opera chorusmaster has died, at 92
mainChordirektor Professor Norbert Balatsch died yesterday. A singer in the company from 1952, he was head of chorus from 1968 to 1983, returning as late as 2006 to help out with Schoenberg’s impossible Moses und Aron.
From 1972 to 1999 Norbert was chorus chief at the Bayreuth Festival.
