SCOTLAND'S BURNING - Beginning Orchestra

Videos are due Monday, June 1  (REVISED)

Follow these steps to practice and make your video.

If you upload a video for this project, you will only need to fill out one Practice Log for the last week of May.  ALSO, you will get an "extra credit" which is either in place of a missing grade or extra credit.
REMEMBER - This is supposed to be fun!  We are going to share our music with people who will appreciate our hard work and our love of music.  This is not about being perfect.

1.

Practice Scotland's Burning #19 in your book.

2.

Practice (not recording yet!) with Ms. Neidhold playing Scotland's Burning.  We are playing this as a round starting with Viola, Cello & Bass then Violins come in second.

BIG HINT!!!  Play with one headphone in and one headphone out.

SCOTLAND'S BURNING - VIOLIN
SCOTLAND'S BURNING - CELLO

REGISTER

4.

After you register it will take you to a page with lots of information about how to make your video.  If you want to be included, you really, REALLY need to read and watch the videos.  BOOKMARK THIS PAGE.  Or you will have to go through the registration process each time.  Here is a link to that page (in case you forget to bookmark - please register first.)

On this website, STEP 1 is like #2 above - practicing with the recording.
STEP 2 - Super important to make your video so we can include you.
STEP 3 - Practice with Ms. Neidhold conducting
VIDEO INSTRUCTION PAGE
Your video will have ONLY you and your playing (no background music).  The company will blend all of your parts together to make our orchestra performance.   Your video will NOT look like Ms. Neidhold's YouTube examples.

5.

Now it's time to record.  Pressing the record button when we say "GO" is important.  You may have to try this several times before you get the video recording you like the best.

​You can record with Ms. Neidhold conducting on the VIDEO INSTRUCTION PAGE or you can record with the YouTube video you have already practiced with.

6.

Upload your video to the VIDEO INSTRUCTION PAGE.

7.

Email Ms. Neidhold and let her know you submitted your video.  She will check that your video was correctly received.

If you want to see an example of what our video will look like, check out this video.
