Prompt 9

Musicians face lots of challenges because of Covid. What many musicians love most is performing in front of a live audience. A way to deal with this is livestream concerts. Earlier in the pandemic, my girlfriend and I paid for tickets to a livestream concert and it was really fun, even though we were just watching on our couch at home. It does not replace live concerts, but it certainly a good alternative, and it is cool to know that there are many other people watching and enjoying the live music at the same time as you. Another challenge for musicians is teaching. Many musicians make a good portion of their income from teaching. I teach 11 students, and during the summer I taught my students over Zoom. It again, is not an ideal situation, but it allowed some continuity in my students’ lives and allowed me to keep earning money as a musician when there were not many other ways to do so.
