Sneak Peek of What's Next (Patreon)

More than one of you have requested sheet music or tutorials for The North Jetty, so I think I'm gonna do that next!
I have a tip for violin students to keep up creative momentum, and it hit me... I could really use it myself right now!
I call it the high/low approach.
That basically means, have one project going that's a big challenge (high), and also keep an easier one going that's more in charted territory (low).
The "high" one is to stretch skills and the "low" is to fine tune skills.
...plus to just get something actually finished! Ha!
So you know Ceiling Fan Song is my big challenge right now. It's coming right along! But there are so many unknown factors for me- harp, singing, orchestration, music video production...
....mechanized costume elements that need to defy the laws of physics lol....
That it's hard to say just how long it'll take me!
I thought about declaring a new deadline when I missed last October, but I really dunno if I can say!
North Jetty on the other hand.... I know that tune inside and out. Well.... do I???
Haha, that's what I was wondering when Ron wandered out of the control room to put some fresh coffee on...
It pretty much came right back.
Wouldn't it be cool to have a whole series on YouTube, maybe weekly release for about a month, about North Jetty?
First could be a nice music video style performance.
Then maybe one talking about the history and inspo for the song.
Then a video about the scale, notes and ornaments used, for violin folks.
Then a full play through tutorial. That vid could be 10-20 minutes long, but I'd teach the whole thing.
I've been thinking for a while, what should I put on YouTube?
This kinda combines requests from students with some really great advice from some of you music listeners here on Patreon.
If people seem to like it, perhaps I could follow this format for sharing good video performances plus tutorials in a nice predictable alternating pattern, for all my most popular tunes.
(And of course you will get early release of everything here plus updates and out takes!)
Meanwhile we'd get more YouTube exposure of our Patreon, and possibly some more patron pals for you to chat with here. :)
(Which of course could throw some more fuel on the fire to expedite the time intensive and higher cost new music stuff.)
So there you have it, a rough sketch of what may be to come.
Do you have any thoughts??
Have a great weekend!!!
