Something to smile about...
From https://ottawapianos.com/ Earlier this year we ordered all the pianos we do every year in preparation for supplying them to Ottawa’s Kiwanis Music Festival and the Royal Conservatory Exams and then.well, we all know what happened. Ottawa Pianos is offering these instruments at the SAME discounted price as if they had been lightly used! New Pianos at demo prices, sold as new with a full 10 year warranty! Many are still in the box, ready to be prepped and delivered!

Something beautiful to share...
Kiwanis Music Festival - Some clarification re the Virtual Festival
A few days ago we asked the internet to stop misery scrolling for a moment, and to sing with us! Over 1000 people from 18 countries submitted a video of their p...erformance of Close To You (Burt Bacharach) in just TWO DAYS. Every submission that we successfully received was manually added to the collective. And then we saw the magic unfold Plug in those earphones and turn this up! We can’t adequately express in words what a gift your videos were to us. Each was like unwrapping a beautiful, personal, virtual hug. Thanks for trusting us with your voices, and for sharing your lives with us for a few minutes. We really hope the result gives you something to smile about. We’d love you to share it far and wide (please note, we won’t ask you to make it viral) Special thanks to Sleepy Mountain Films for this incredible edit. Until our next Couch Choir session Pub Choir
From Cara Gilbertson-Boese: Ottawa Voice Teachers...hi everyone! I hope you are all healthy and finding ways to teach online that are working for you! As president of NATS-NCR and as someone who has been using online teaching modules for the past several months I would like to offer you all a chance to explore ideas and techniques to not only turn your own studios into online studios, but to enhance the quality of lessons through online methods. I am tagging my fellow NATS me...mbers, as well as other voice teachers in the Ottawa area. It strikes me that one of the most amazing reasons that we have a thriving singing community is because of each and every one of you. I look forward to sharing a chance to connect and inspire one another. Please attend live if you are available. For those of you who cannot attend live, let me know if you would like the recording of the workshop to watch at your convenience! (PS...please forward to any other local voice teachers whom I haven't already tagged...thanks!) Let's meet on Zoom on Wednesday at 11:15am for 45-minutes. Click the following link. Cara Gilbertson is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting. Time: Mar 25, 2020 11:15 AM Montreal Join Zoom Meeting https://zoom.us/j/904887867
Something to brighten our spirits...
A quick update - we're just about done rescheduling the Festival into May and will send out that info as we confirm it. Because of the short turnaround regarding the Provincials deadline (May 20) and a few other logistical issues, we are offering Music Theatre as a video-submission competition. Note that we are communicating directly with those teachers/participants about how this will work. Also - per the feedback we've received - we are offering our school-based ensembl...es (bands, orchestras and choirs) the choice of sending in video performances or holding live performances at the end of May. We're getting responses to this now and will update our website as details are confirmed. We appreciate your patience at this time. We are a very small organization with a ton of details to juggle - thank you all for your positive suggestions and support.
