Sitzprobe
A German term (literally "seated rehearsal") for the first time the cast of a musical sings through the full score with the orchestra or band, without staging, blocking, or costumes. The sitzprobe is a milestone in musical theatre rehearsals—it's the moment the voices and instruments come together for the first time, and it's often an emotional experience for the company.
