🌸 WELCOME TO OUR SPRINGTIME RECITAL! 🎶

Join us for a joyful celebration of music and renewal in our Springtime Community Recital! As the seasons change, let’s embrace fresh beginnings with performances that bloom with energy, beauty, and inspiration. Whether it's a piece that reminds you of spring, a melody that feels like a fresh start, or simply something you love to play, we can’t wait to hear it!

How to Participate:
🌿  Reply to this topic with your chosen repertoire.
🌸  Record & share your performance—or choose to play LIVE!

Let’s welcome the new season together through music! 🌷✨

 

General information and Guidelines below!

Reply to this topic with your name and repertoire selection if you would like to perform! If you don't know what you want to play yet, you can always just let us know your intent!

ABOUT TONEBASE COMMUNITY CONCERTS:

These events are NOT live-streamed OR recorded, but are private zoom meetings where tonebase members can share their hard work and perform for each other! 

 

These concerts can be played LIVE, or if you can't attend, you can submit a recording!

 

This is a GENEROUS and SUPPORTIVE space.

 

Performing is one of the best ways to push yourself, and really evaluate the work/progress you have made!

 

Repertoire is open to any piece!

 

Memorization is NOT required.

 

You can play select movements, or even sections of pieces! No need to perform a complete work!

 

Playing the piano is fun, but sharing your music with others is one of life's great joys. Join in on the fun and cheer each other on!

 

FOR OPTIMIZING YOUR ZOOM SETTINGS PLEASE SEE THE SHORT VIDEOS BELOW!

 

Because we use zoom for these concerts, it is important to have the best audio and visual settings available!

 

Check out these videos depending on the device you are using!

    I would love to play four of Chopin's mazurkas (Op. 6 No. 3, Op. 7 No. 2, Op. 24 No. 1, and Op. 17 No. 4) if there is time. If not, perhaps just 6/3 and 17/4,  or even just 17/4.

    I'd like to play "Chopin" by Schumann (Carnaval) and Chopin Etude 25/1.  Both pieces are in A flat major and I play them as if they had an inner "secret" connection (about 4 minutes).

    Thinking of playing:

    • Gershwin's "Someone to Watch Over Me'" (transcribed from his August 1926 live radio performance)
    • Hoagy Carmichael's "Georgia on My Mind" (transcribed from Oscar Peterson's 1963 rendition on his "Night Train" album)

    I'll sign up to play Chopin's Barcarolle in F#. I'll be traveling without access to a piano, so I'll submit a recording. Please let me know when the recording needs to be submitted.
