Musicians Katie Sadoff ’20 and Milo Reynolds-Dominguez ’20 spoke to the Arts Editor to share their thoughts on music in transition. Sadoff, majoring in computer science and music, said the transition online has not been seamless for music majors. “Zoom is great for conversing with people, but when you’re playing music together, and there’s a one second delay, the whole piece falls apart,” she said. “So it’s hard to do an ensemble virtually — to perform and practice music.” Sadoff, trained as both a classical and jazz clarinetist, remarked that the “synchronous quality of jazz” was practically impossible to simulate online, with improvisation out of the picture. Sadoff mentioned the cancellation of the long-anticipated concert with Wynton Marsalis, along with many other shows in Lincoln Hall.
