Hi! I am not new to the forum but have been absent for a while. I am wondering if any of you have tried Skype practice or performing. I am thinking I would maybe like to have a person or group to practice Performing with. Any one interested?

Hi! I am not new to the forum but have been absent for a while. I am wondering if any of you have tried Skype practice or performing. I am thinking I would maybe like to have a person or group to practice Performing with. Any one interested? Although not Skype, something like this already exists and you can try it out. A few people from PW are already on it. Take a look at this thread for a description and explanation of how to use it.

What level were you looking for? I tried Skype with one other person and didn’t find it went well but I’d be willing to try again The edit is that Skype was patchy (not the playing

Intermediate I think. Currently working on Chopin Raindrop Prelude and Debussy Reverie, Gottschaulk The Dying Poet, and a couple of Christopher Norton Micro Jazz pieces. I would like to find some Skype buddies to practice Performing with/for.

Ok - I’m in midst of prepping for exam so that’s something I’d be interested in I need to get over my terrible stagefright! I’d only have 5pieces +2 studies to share until I sit the exam in June. So it could be a bit boring lol

We’ve done this before on our Online Piano Part Thread. I’d be willing to do it again. I’m actually just starting Raindrop also. (see profile pic).

I love this idea but I am using Discord for this purpose (Pinano server). I already have 30 hours of practice time and participated in their most recent recital (I played 4-5 pieces). I love chatting about music with the other Discord folks.

I need to be able to use my iPad and although downloaded the Discord App, it seems like I may need a PC?
I am in Atlantic Canada time zone for anyone interested in Skype.
