Tamar Kaprelian invited Elhaida Dani, Elina Born, Maria-Elena Kyriakou and Stephanie Topalian to record a new version of The Otherside while they were all in Vienna for Eurovision. In the spirit of that year’s motto, Building Bridges, the collaboration brought five voices together across national borders.
The connection to TRIPBOX came through ORF. Michael was already working as musical director for Austria’s Eurovision national selection broadcasts; when Tamar approached the broadcaster about the collaboration, ORF recommended him and introduced him to her management.
The session attracted a remarkable amount of press. After the initial interviews and filming, Michael cleared the recording room so the singers could concentrate. His team kept the journalists happy in the lounge with Viennese coffee — and the vocal recordings could begin in earnest.
