Guidelines:
1. Prepare 2-3 pieces to share with your practice buddy. 7 minutes or less. Pieces can be polished or a piece that is still being worked on. Perfection is not the goal, this is a practice session.
2. Prepare a short introduction about yourself and your songs.
3. Come expecting to make new musical friends and have a chance to practice.
How it works:
Students will log into Zoom. The host will welcome everyone and then the group will be divided into breakout rooms according to level. The students can introduce themselves and talk about their pieces and play for each other. Each student can play 2-3 songs with a total time of 7 minutes. The host will be able to visit the breakout rooms to see how they are doing. The breakout session will last 15 minutes - 1 minute intro each 6-7 minutes of songs. Groups will come back together and then be divided into another breakout to meet another friend and have another chance to play. This breakout room will last another 15 minutes. The main goal is to develop friendships and have an opportunity to prepare for recitals.
