Same here.

I can read 1 2 3 but not the staff (that beyond the very basic), but I
can sing beautifully.

Hope there is a chance/possibility for a normal Joe like me to participate.

Cheers

If you need an alto, I can give it a shot if the piece is short!

Hi!

I have fond memories of the Debian Singing SboF in Curitiba! :)
Doing something like that remotely is probably not feasible, I'm afraid.

What works in my (CoViD limited) experience is distributing a video of a
choir director directing an imagined choir and singing a voice along.
The singers then record themselves (typically by their phones) singing
their parts while watching the director video using headphones.  Several
seconds of lead in and out are useful, and I imagine that starting the
director video by some clapperboard effect which is re-captured on each
part helps synchronizing them.

I'm willing to give a try to performing the bass part and to persuading
my wife (who sometimes uses Debian) to sing alto if needed (that is,
unless the Debian Women project steps up for this task in force. :))

Here's an example how this can be done, despite no two members of the
choir/orchestra ever meeting each other at the same time:

(SpyTube, but 「torify youtube-dl $URL」 stops both ads and tracking.)

I enjoy singing, and I learn iteratively, but I don't read music beyond
understanding the time value of the various notes.  Will there be coaching?

Also, were you planning on having everyone record a track and then
syncronising the tracks into one, or get together and sing on jitsi?

I think honsestly only a non-live option is realistic.

(also, I'm in Cape Town, so long delays too for live options)

Curious... I'm interested (I'm a tenor), and I might be able to convince 
my partner (she's a soprano).


However we're in Australia, so latency to .de is ~300ms, no good for 
live collaboration unless you're considering something to work around 
that (pre recorded, or delays lines etc), so it probably wouldn't be 
practical for us to participate in anything realtime.
