Thanks for sharing folks. @susieq, I tagged you here to ensure you see Mike’s above reply. The hearing aids topic with recording/zoom sessions is a good one. Bluetooth to the apple device to hear the audio coming through our microphones. Be interesting to hear if this works for you, Susieq. Good topic to hear from the wider community as well 🙂

Very neat sharing, Steve. These are important endeavours. It’s a gorgeous song, and the way they play it really carries well. I also like the dynamics they use, harmonies, and various instruments coming in and out throughout.
I like how you share your process with this. Listening, especially live and with our instrument, and as we’re ready,…[Read more] -

Hi Beth, great question. Under the support tab there is a page called ‘subscription questions’. If you look at the question on that page saying ‘how do I cancel or upgrade my subscription?’, that answer will show you how to look at your current subscription.

Debbie, very enjoyable to hear you play this. Smooth and clear sounds, rhythm steady, and emphasizing notes on beat 1&3 sounds great! Changing string tuning is a challenge your taking on beautifully. Thanks for the inspiration 🎶

Love this, Steve. Nice work on the Viola, fun and interesting way to switch it up. Great playing and smooth hand position changes too. Your really in a good groove with this tune.
Do you notice much with the change in size/arm reach and weight of instrument compared to violin? I have yet to try a viola.
Awesome environment you choose to play in…[Read more] -
