"Just Us" Recital

Sunday, January 28, 2024

LOCATION: The Brownhoist, 4403 St. Clair Avenue, Cleveland

Recital begins at 2 pm.

Join us for an afternoon of music!

We are planning our "Just Us" members recital for Sunday, January 28, 2024.

Join us in the ballroom of the historic Brownhoist building, located in downtown Cleveland.

Open to GCFS Members and friends.

**************

Each performer is encouraged to play a maximum of 7 minutes in length.

Students and non-students alike are welcome to perform solo (or small ensemble pieces with other musicians in your pandemic "pod") in a friendly and supportive setting. Ensembles can include other instrumentalists who do not need to be members.

We understand that many teachers who are GCFS members may have students who are not GCFS members. These instructors who are members may invite their non-member students to the Just Us recital, at no extra cost to the instructor or the student(s). Non-members who would like to perform a solo are asked to pay $10.

** This is event has now passed -- see you in 2025!! **

Tips and Tricks for Virtual Performances

Tips for Live Performances over Zoom

-A wired internet connection with an Ethernet cable is often better than wi-fi.

-An external microphone is better than a built-in microphone since it has a wider frequency and dynamic range. Make sure your microphone is set to "automatically adjust microphone volume" in your Audio Settings.

-Make sure you have turned on Original Sound. To do this, go to your Audio Settings, scroll down to the Music and Professional Audio section, and click the box that says "Show in meeting option to turn on Original Sound." Once you have selected this option, exit your audio settings. You should see a box in the upper left-hand corner of your screen that says "Turn on Original Sound." You want Original Sound to be on, so make sure the box turns blue.

Tips for Pre-Recorded (Video) Performances

-We recommend you record in 1080p or 720p. This is the default for most smartphones.

-An external microphone is better than a built-in microphone since it has a wider frequency and dynamic range.

-If you are recording on a smartphone, place your phone in the 'landscape' or horizontal orientation for best results.
