Zoom Concert with prerecorded music videos

[mksteacher1]

I am trying to put together a Christmas concert with friends who live in various states.  I was told that I could have musicians send me their recordings via Zoom, where I could store them, and then pull them up during the concert.  I'm struggling to find information on how to do this.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Hi @mksteacher1 

You could have Zoom meetings with your musicians and record those meetings, either locally or in the cloud.

You could then play those recordings back during your event, just by having them downloaded in advance and sharing them as videos in your event.

I hope this helps.

This sounds like an interesting project.

It would be best to download the videos to your computer and share their view into the session like this: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/360051673592-Sharing-and-playing-a-video

This will provide the best audio and video quality

Oh, thank you so much, Bort!  Really appreciate your input.  I had an idea and went with it, and I have 10 musicians ready to do this, and now I need to make this happen.  Thanks again!
