The L1 approach solved the problem for many, including those attending the conference, of Hearing Together. Now there's so much to learn about Playing Together.

The idea would be for Cliff to work with an ensemble at the Conference putting arranging a few songs and using the deep principles he's developed. Attendees would observe and ask questions of Cliff.
The format for this presentation will be for Ken Jacob to ask Cliff Goodwin questions and for Cliff to give his thoughts and seek those of the audience.


In the evening, Cliff would demonstrate "finished product" with The Linemen, allowing attendees to ask questions about his choices on the five songs used to introduce the L1 system. A final set of songs could be added for Monday entertainment, with spouses, loved ones, favorite waiters and waitresses etc. to enjoy.
A few topics sure to come up are:


* Exploiting the lateral (left to right) field
* Getting out of each others' way
* Modesty
* Making every sound mean something
* Supporting the vocalist
* Supporting a soloist
* Space, and musical holes
* Designing a set list
