Cello Recital - Handel Trio Sonata

I performed a cello duet in my cello teacher's studio recital.

This was during intense covid-19 days and everything was on-line: cello lessons, (my work) and this cello recital too. My cello teacher's students all sent in a video recording of their work. I collected them all together and made a video that was posted on-line.

Since this was done in isolation from others, I could not duet with anyone else. However, through recording I could duet with myself. I did need piano though, so I contacted the mom of my daughter-in-law Bethany. An excellent pianist, she recorded that part and sent it back. I then doubled the bass line from the piano and put it all together in Garageband.

This music was just the first movement of the piece. It does end with a hanging feeling for the next part, but I was satisfied with the result.
