Davis Youth Flute Choir presents holiday show

The Davis Youth Flute Choir, under the direction of Maquette Kuper, just released its holiday 2020 performance virtual video. The performance of “A Christmas Banquet, A Renaissance Collection for Flute Choir” arranged by Judy Nishamura can be viewed at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-2QudEvSD0k.
Performers met throughout the fall and were able to get in a few “socially distanced” outdoor rehearsals in Kuper’s backyard.
“It was a special bonus to be able to hold a few live rehearsals during COVID since the online version of rehearsal does not allow for actually playing together and listening to each other to match intonation and timing and to remember how to follow a conductor,” Kuper said. “That said, the ultimate task was to listen to ‘click tracks’ of the music while each person records their individual part and submits it to be mixed by audio and video engineer Stephen Bingen.”
