Hi Nora
What an excellent post. I am after the same information and experiences, as
I have just started to go solo myself, with a local music society who hold
'informal' concerts 3 times a year at an old folks home.
Question:- Using a taped accompaniment, have you ever had a disaster, like,
the tape / or t/recorder breaking??
