FINAL CALL

Hi Cello Friends,

THIS IS YOUR FINAL CALL to join us and be a part of Project #18!

Still plenty of time to be a part of this one, AND you'll get this spooky arrangement of this piece (BONUS) for your cello choir music library.

All you need is your cello, 2 devices and some headphones.

You don’t have to be in costume, you don’t need a green screen.

AND you have ALL THIS WEEKEND and then a little extra to submit your play-through of this piece.

AND We have some sponsored places left too so there’s nothing stopping you!!
Just send us an email and we will get you on board!

Come and join in with Cellists from 26 COUNTRIES around the world!

No time?? It really doesn’t have to take that long… Especially if you are a pretty good reader.  Choose a part you’re comfortable with - we need strong players on ALL the parts!!

QUELL THAT PERFECTIONIST VOICE!

You know the one - the voice that persists and contributes to our self doubt and paralysis!

Just jump right in!  It really doesn’t have to take long.  Simply film yourself playing your part with an official backing track, and upload it.  

 
Register

AND IF YOU NEED HELP, it's definitely available….
LIVE PRACTICE SESSIONS - LAST CHANCE!!

I will be live on Zoom HERE for the following live practice sessions - jump in, get your questions answered in real time - don’t forget to bring your cello (and you’ll need some headphones to do the live practice component).

Saturday 1AM  CST - for the other side of the world.  
Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, all of you…. starting 3 hours from now.
Saturday 12 noon  CST
Sunday 1.30pm  CST

“Next Show in…
Check out the COUNT-DOWN TIMERS HERE

Join us for a chat, ask questions, and PLAY YOUR CELLO!

These sessions have been great!  So many great comments from you about learning so much and learning different techniques, and just a general good time-hangout. The catch-up and watch again links are on the website HERE, including play-throughs of all the parts - fast and slow versions!

Finally...
THE UPLOADER IS LIVE

After some initial bugs and 24 hours of beta testing (thank you beta testers!), we think all the bugs are worked out and we are READY.

Current Part Distribution (from survey)


Ok, i’ve uploaded…Now what?

In just a few days, you are gonna be asking yourselves that very question.

 

HERE’S NEXT WEEK

We have some great things planned for y’all!

 

LIVE FACEBOOK EDITING SESSIONS

All next week I will be hosting some facebook livestream behind-the-scenes editing sessions. If you are interested in seeing how these projects come together, come along and join me as I start the audio editing - I really appreciate the company too! I usually fit these sessions into my day wherever I can, so they tend to pop up at short notice and random times! The best way to find out when I’m “going live” is to watch the facebook group for announcements.

 

LEARN ABOUT DANSE MACABRE

Danse Macabre - history, composition and analysis discussion session presented by Rowan.

 

Find out how Saint-Saens’ famous piece was put together, have a look at the original score, and discover where some of the musical ideas came from. Compare our cello parts with the original scoring and the sounds of the full orchestra. There will be plenty of time for questions and discussion, and I’m sure we will go off on a few tangents as well. I hope you will join us as we explore the background and context of Danse Macabre. 

That’s it for now - Thanks for being a part of this project. 

Cello love from
