This is hard times for everyone, especially for us musicians and other freelancers... That’s why we’ve come up with this idea to keep us all busy and motivated! As our Easter flights have been cancelled (and believe it or not, refunded!), we’ve got hold of some unexpected money we’d like to invest in this.
Budget is 350€ and we are hoping to share it between the 6 winners of two different categories who will be recording some of our arrangements, see full list below.
TIMETABLE:
-Saturday 18th 8pm: deadline for sending us your videos.
-Sunday 19th 8pm: videos will be published on our YouTube channel and Facebook page.
-Sunday 26th 8pm: videos with the most likes (YouTube & Facebook combined) will be the winners!
CATEGORIES & PRIZES:
Category A: Actual Violin Duo, for those of you who have been lucky to be isolating with another of your kind.
-Winner: 100€
-2nd place: 50€
-3rd place: 25€
Category B: Self Violin Duo (or 2 players in different locations), if you are crafty enough and can record yourself playing both parts and then put them together.
-Winner: 100€
-2nd place: 50€
-3rd place: 25€
HOW TO APPLY:
Contact us with some info about yourself or short bio/CV. Tell us the piece you would like to record and we will send the 2nd violin accompaniment over.
