Taking the simple idea of a conversation between two players, these six Musical Conversations are especially arranged to overcome the problems of playing together on the internet. Each performer in turn plays a short phrase that is then answered by the other player, enabling live music making via the internet. Especially good for flute lessons and other wind instruments as well as violins, Also in bass clef for bassons, 'cellos etc
The idea for these Musical Conversations came about as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic of 2020, and the Lockdown that prevented musicians from playing live music together. Roz wanted to find a way to support musicians and live music during this tough time.
Suitable for online teaching, friends and FUN !
