Making music, virtually

During the 2020 and 2021 seasons about one-third of ECO’s membership continued to make live music together, remotely, at weekly rehearsals. Because of this, ECO was able to release our first-ever YouTube concert videos: “A Low Latency Holiday” in December of 2020 (below) followed by “Popping the Pandemic” in April of 2021, available on our “Previous Performances” page.

None of this would have been possible without our conductor’s research and heroic efforts and the gracious support of the University of Washington’s Department of Digital Arts and Experimental Media. Marcin has published a post about our rehearsing experience.

Two play-along videos Marcin created, enabling members to work on their parts individually at home.
