"We use Elk to overcome the distances in Norrbotten in Sweden - a large and sparsely populated region. With the ability to play remotely together we can offer quality music education and a greater range of instruments to students in villages and smaller communities that have limited or no access to local teachers."

Peabody Institute of John Hopkins University (US)

The Peabody Institute of John Hopkins University has emerged over the decades as one of the world's preeminent and influential music education institutions. From its beginnings in the mid 1800s, Peabody has prided itself on its ability to bring together communities of artists, teachers, and scholars to uplift the quality of human life through the arts. And they've done this not only through its rich history of musical training and expertise, but by embracing innovation.

Requirements for using Elk LIVE

For optimal performance, bandmates should be within a 1000 km (620 mile) radius.

You can connect and stay in sync with musicians further away, but you might not get that “in the same room” experience.
