[Perform-talk] NFB talent show

Sun Jun 1 07:35:24 UTC 2014

Hello,

I am interested in participating in the NFB talents   competition. 
I play trumpet and the piece that I would like to play will require a accompaniment On   a flash drive or CD. Would it be possible for the recording to be balanced with my trumpet sound? Or would it be possible to use a microphone in front of my trumpet so it can be heard over the recorded accompaniment? 

Thanks,Winona
