- Performance: Oakland University School of Music, Theatre and Dance “Virtual Steel Band” presents a piece called “Rainmaker” (written by Patrick Fitzgibbon) that the class worked on earlier in the semester. Once classes went online, each student brought home a pan to continue practicing. In order to record this video, each student had to record themselves playing their part while listening to a reference track. Once each student’s video was completed, Patrick edited them together. He says, “It is a real challenge recording this way and I was very impressed with all the work these students put in.”
