(Sorta) Songtaneous
July 11, 2020 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
$15I learned a lot from our June session, so I want to offer another online Songtaneous in July.
Let’s meet Saturday, July 11th (using Zoom) for an hour. (We can go longer if folks want to). I have some songs I can share and some ideas about how we might make other music/improvise “together.”

If you have yet to attend a Zoom event, you can join from your computer or smart phone. If you’re using your smart phone or tablet, you will need to install the Zoom app in advance. If you connect from your computer, the program will download automatically. If you want to call in from a regular phone, get in touch and I’ll send you the call-in details.
Speaking of Zoom …
I am sharing share some tips that should improve the sound quality for everyone. (These are from my experiences teaching singing online.)
– Please wear headphones (if you have them). Feedback and distortion can happen when your device amplifies through its microphone the sound coming out of its speakers. You can’t hear this effect, but the rest of us can. Headphones solve this problem.
– At times, I will ask you to mute your mic during group singing. Note: I think the group will be small enough so that we won’t have to be muted throughout. (c;
– If possible, join from a computer or laptop with a high-speed internet connection. An ethernet cable running directly from the modem offers the best sound/video. If you’re using wifi, set up near your modem where the signal is strongest. If your internet becomes unstable during our session, try turning off your video until the signal improves.
– Again, if you’re on a computer or laptop, you can adjust your audio settings in advance. See this PDF for step-by-step instructions.
