Putting on events

Case studies: Group activity during Covid

The pandemic has thrown all kinds of challenges in the way of group music making.

Usually in advance of the concert date you will receive a hyperlink to a webpage you'll visit to view the performance. Do check that you have this and click the link to confirm that it works ahead of the concert. You'll most likely be guided to a page indicating that you're in the correct place and to return on the date / time that the performance is scheduled for.
