One last video for 2020 – or one first video for 2021. We invited students and music staff at Rockford High School to submit video/audio of the traditional canon Dona Nobis Pacem to a click track. Just once through the form. Then, through the magic of Pro Tools and Final Cut Pro, I put together this full length canon of the piece, featuring staggered entrances and a sense of ensemble that belies the virtual nature of the piece.
And of course, we could all do with a little peace in 2021, couldn’t we?
Happy New Year from myself and from all the wonderful musicians at Rockford High School.
