We lament that indoor workshops and other events
will be far & few between as we follow seasonal protocols.
Some ERS members have been telling the executive

Play a duet. Record one part, then play the second part along with your own recording! If you need some music, we recommend the collection by Steve Hendricks. It is easy to find two part pieces because the selections all list the number of parts. The level of difficulty is varied, so you will have to check that out for yourself, as well as sorting out the best instrument to play for each part.

Check out Recorder Dots https://recorderdots.com This site was created by James Howard Young: I provide custom scores and parts for recorder players. Download parts and interact with the built-in mixer that allows you to mute the part you are playing and play along with the others in real time. The mixer works on all devices and requires no special software. Join now for just $5 a month. Your support allows me to keep making unique arrangements for recorder. Try a demo first. You can see his incredible work on You Tube.

Kudos: "Thanks also to members of the Edmonton Recorder Society for being the first group of people to play through the score and show me how awesome and fun it would be to perform this piece live."
