Hopefully this is just for demo purposes and there will be more than 4 musicians in the pit during an actual performance?

I watched the clips from the Japanese production and the orchestrations we're bigger, but who kneels about the MTC one.

Um, this is the rehearsal band simply giving a barebones presentation of the Oveture.  I hope you ARE aware that casts of musicals don't rehearse a show with a full orchestra in the rehearsal studio.

^Yes most of us are aware of that, but for someone that isn't how would they know that from this video?  Bad PR.

And most rehearsals only use a piano and not a full "rehearsal band".

Exactly, Tag. My partner and I watched this and wondered the same thing: will it be a combo, small orchestra, full orchestra? The article didn't mention this particular.

No need for you to be condescending to me BrodyFosse123.

I gotta admit, that was unnecessarily snarky.
