Interactive Class: Sor's Lesson Op. 31, No. 13

Sor’s music is some of the richest repertoire from the classical period for the guitar. His Lesson Op. 31 No. 13 is a wonderful juxtaposition of technically accesible writing with a rich musical content. This allows us to dig into principles of phrasing and their technical applications on the guitar.

Join Emmanuel Sowicz for this interactive class in which you will have the opportunity to ask questions or perform and receive instant feedback. Visit the forum to download a copy of the score so you can prepare and make the most of the session.

This will be our an interactive Livestream, so let me attach all the info needed for this exciting new tonebase LIVE format!

Note: The interactive class itself will not be recorded and is only accessible through participating the livestream.

What is this?

This interactive Livestream is our take on the cohort based learning model. We are used to learn in groups, we do that in school and in university, we do that when we interact in a community and learn from different perspectives. With new developments in online video communication software, we can bring this concept into tonebase and explore a new form of how you interact with our fantastic community!

What do I need?

1. We are going to use ZOOM for the interactive part of Livestream (the same piece of software that we have been using for the Virtual Hangouts). While it is not necessary to download the software, I would recommend it as it runs more stable as the browser version. In order to have the best audio quality, you can activate the option to Preserve Original Sound, here you find the documentation on how to activate that.
2. It's best to prepare for that lesson to get the most out of it in the interactive part! So listen to some of our fantastic release on 

How does this take place?

1. Simply watch the Livestream at the time indicated in the Live Calender! 
2. At the end of the approx. 25-35min Livestream, I will share a ZOOM Link in the Chat. Click on that link, it will take you to our ZOOM Cohort Based Course
3. In the Zoom Call, we will get into greater depth about challenging passages of that piece, we can discuss certain fingering possibilities TOGETHER and YOU can get a full masterclass experience if you decide to take part with audio and video (not necessarily needed, more on that below)! 

Why?

• Because we want to offer a place where true interaction can take place!
• Because we want you to have the full masterclass experience!
• Because we want you to truly engage with our inspiring and motivational community!

Frequently Asked Questions:

Do I need to watch the Livestream before the interactive class?

While it is not mandatory to watch the Livestream, the link to the class will be only shared in the chat of the Livestream! As the contents of the Livestream are going to be interactively worked on and discussed, it's a great opportunity to get you up and running on that topic!

I want to be there and watch, but I don't feel comfortable taking part actively and share my audio and video. Can I still participate?

Of course! You can still enter the ZOOM class without audio and video. Though I highly recommend to see this Livestream more as university group lesson and - more importantly - a chance to have a meaningful interaction not only with me but with fellow tonebase users!
