Joint Activity for Friday April 10
Dear students, the Sinfonia ensemble will be joining us for a bit at 8:00pm to read through the excerpt of Beethoven 7, Mov. 4 for fun and inspiration. I will also have feedback for some of you regarding the videos you submitted for the mashup.
The first part of our rehearsal will be to sight-read a new full-ensemble work for the Symphony, of which parts and a demo recording will be available soon.

Mashup Video Recording Instructions
1. Use your smartphone, tablet, or other recording device to video record your playing in a horizontal/landscape format.
2. Make sure your instrument is visible, and for string players ensure that this includes your full range of motion while bowing. The tone holes of your stringed instruments should be facing the camera (not your face).
3. Our mashup video experiment is going to be done with Measures 352 to the end of Beethoven Symphony No. 7, Mov. 4.
4. The tempo of the click track for piece has been set to a reasonable pace that the majority of musicians should be able to play. If you need coaching on your part, please contact the CYOSC Staff to receive 1-on-1 help during their office hours starting next week on Zoom.
5. While recording, you will need to have the click track playing into your headphones or earbuds, so that your part will fit in with the final mix.
6. Do not worry about extra video at the beginning or the end of your recording--if you do not know how to do it, we will handle trimming it to the portion that you are playing.
7. The click track is available to download here as a MP3 file. The track plays two measures of 2/4 time as clicks before the reference audio begins.
