@Fiddlerman 

I sent along my clip- piece for violin 2. It's a small clip and the best that I have. This is the first time I've used the share feature on googledrive. I hope I did it correctly. Please don't expect much hehe. 

and yes, a super beginner's part would be just... super!

@Fiddlerman maybe for the next project have a signup sheet of sorts. It would let everyone know what parts were covered and what was needed. 

Thanks so much for getting the music out there early. It really did help! Can't wait to hear the finished product.

I feel bad because I wasn't able to get anything done especially since  the sheet music and click track were available so early.

I had planned to get more than one part this year. Unfortunately my practice time has been reduced to 10 min scales here and there and the Christmas project remained un-played on my music stand. frown

I have no excuse, but my reason is that I am not ready. I might have looked like I was doing something, but not something any of you would have wanted to hear.

Looking forward to the finished product. I am afraid my recordings are a little shaky but I trust in @fiddlerman to edit away the bad bits.

Hopefully I can mix everything today. Don't count on it though. ;)

Don't worry about shaky..... It'll be fine. :)

There will be plenty of chances for you in the future. :)

I would have been extremely surprised if you could have submitted something this early in the game.

It sounds beautiful. Thank you for letting me participate. It will be a touchstone and a happy memory on beginning my fiddle journey.

 

Merry Christmas and God Bless Us Everyone.

@Fiddlerman you made us all sound wonderful! Beautiful finished product - thank you so much for letting me be part of it. 

This was my first project, and after getting over my nerves, I quite enjoyed it. Next time count me in for multiple parts!

Thanks again for making this opportunity available to us! Merry Christmas to all!

Sorry I missed this one. Had every intention of participating but in the end just never found time to work on it. Maybe next year.

That was fantastic! I was wondering how that would work when I saw the posts for it in the forum when I started coming here. 

????Congratulations on a job well done!????

Hello @Mouse - the forum has a huge amount of info to go through - so just pointing out the other projects we did in the past if you haven't seen them yet - the clever bit is the use of the shared click-track and score, and of course the final mixing-down by @Fiddlerman (not an easy task!) - if you look on the main "Forum" page you'll see a list of main topics - look for this one, and you'll see all the earlier group projects below it...  bunny_pole_dancerThey are all awesome !
