one in one: miniatures & mutual aid
During the period of social distancing, self-isolation & self-quarantine due to the outbreak of Covid-19 in March 2020, Yaz challenged us to write a 1 minute solo for each other in 1 hour. Afterwards, we extended the invitation to anyone who wanted to try by posting the challenge idea (to write 1min violin and/or guitar works in 1hr) to our social media. We were overwhelmed with the amount of submissions we received, and decided to split our recordings into three volumes of recording over a one-year period (2020-21) with people | places | records.
