The model seems well-suited for the work-from-home world, with one significant exception: Virtual rehearsals aren't possible.
"There's what they call latency, where there's a delay. And so to actually play together is quite difficult," Unsworth said.
Due to the pandemic, until recently, in-person performances have been limited. Since accepting the invitation to join the ensemble last summer, Unsworth has had a chance to play with Quadre only a couple of times, including during a trip to the Bay Area last fall, when the group had their first real chance to rehearse together. The ensemble also performed at several local food pantries during the visit.
