Maastricht based husband and wife musical duo, the Macaron Project, make it to the semi-finals of talent seeking programme We Want More.
French born tenor Eric Reddet and English born, pianist Abigail Reddet, formed the Macaron Project to share their love of performing a broad range of music together in more intimate concerts where it’s really possible to connect with the audience. Their goal is to bring opera and classical music to everyone.
They have recently brought their concept to delight a larger audience on the TV show We Want More. They are now through to the semi-finals! Tune in to SBS6 Saturdays 20:00 to watch their progress.
We Want More is a Dutch TV show in search of new singing talent. The show encourages all genre’s of music from Classical to Rock and everything between. Candidates audition to a five-member jury, who press a button decide if they go through to the next round. In an unusual twist, the jury member is able to change their mind as many times as they want during the performance. During the course of the show, jury members are also able to give sums of money to invest in the contestants to use for their development (for example to spend on singing or diction lessons).
The winner of the show takes home the sum of €100,000, second place €25,000 and third place €10,000.
Good luck Eric and Abigail!
