ABOUT TONEBASE COMMUNITY CONCERTS:
These events are NOT live-streamed OR recorded, but are private zoom meetings where tonebase members can share their hard work and perform for each other!
These concerts can be played LIVE, or if you can't attend, you can submit a recording!
This is a GENEROUS and SUPPORTIVE space.
Performing is one of the best ways to push yourself, and really evaluate the work/progress you have made!
Repertoire is open to any piece!
Memorization is NOT required.
You can play select movements, or even sections of pieces! No need to perform a complete works!
Playing the guitar is fun, but sharing your music with others is one of life's great joys. Join in on the fun and cheer each other on!
FOR OPTIMIZING YOUR ZOOM SETTINGS PLEASE SEE THE SHORT VIDEOS BELOW!
Because we use zoom for these concerts, it is important to have the best audio and visual settings available!

martin Hi Martin. I'm not going to say what I am going to play. It's an arrangement of a well known song (it's well known to me if not to anyone else). I'm hoping people will recognise it :-)
-
Derek wonderful, thank you!
-
-
I'm looking forward to another beautiful community concert from our tonebuddies! Please reply here if you wanna play something!
-
Yes, I want to perform, but a lot will depend on my schedule. It's complex, to say the least. But I have several things in mind as possibilities. I will choose one and try to keep it at 5 minutes or less.
-
I have a fun piece on a Golden Theme, about 3 minutes long but as I played last week if there isn't enough time I'm happy just to watch
-
I think I have something that fits the theme for this concert, if there is some remaining time I would like to be in!
-
I’d like to join in for this recital. Or, would it be too early for the Songe Capricorne? And, since I played last Friday, I’d be okay to leave place for others this time.
-
joosje I would definitely want to hear you play Songe Capricorne
-
Blaise Laflamme me too!!!
-
joosjeI would love to hear that from you there!!!!
-
-
I’d like to join and play something. Not sure what yet. I’ll get back to ya’ll on that
-
Great theme, I would like to join and play Un dia de Noviembre by Leo Brouwer, if there is still room.
-
Ok, I've decided. I will play Sor Op.6, No. 11
I look forward to seeing you all there and enjoying your beautiful contributions!

martin hi Martin, I’m sorry I need to drop out of this concert. I’ve been experiencing some nerve issues in my hands. I’ll be seeing a neurologist this week for a diagnosis but in the meantime I’m taking it easy and preparing this piece for a concert is a bad idea
-

-
