Virtual Recital Experiences: To Bring Students, Families and Your Community Together

The concept of holding a virtual recital showcasing our students online was likely inconceivable for the majority of independent music teachers earlier this year. Since all the performers and audience members are likely calling in from their homes, you have less control over the performance environment than you would in your regular performance space. In preparation for our virtual recital for the Music Prep Division at Stephen F. Austin State University, students and their parents would record performances from their own mobile devices and share them using file sharing services such as Google Drive, Dropbox, WeTransfer and iCloud Drive.
