  8. CLASSICAL or JAZZᵃᵈʲᵃᶜᵉⁿᵗ musicians/vocalists† —
    What has been your most successful resource for hiring a pianist / accompanist for long distance collaboration?
    No, there is no-one local. Yes, I've looked. For years. It's all country and emo-punk around here, or the actually trained musicians are working as teachers and have no free time.

    My first thought is to go with Fiverr, but I wondered if anyone knew of anything "better." (Or anyone specific on Fiverr?) I know there are sortof musician-exclusive Fiverr-type websites, but I'm not sure about the userbase size and general trustworthiness vs "we hyped this up but it's pretty cobwebby"…

    † yes, vocalists are musicians, too — I'm just covering all my bases

    PS - Not looking for "live" recording, just someone I can give sheet music w/ some directions to and have them record me a track.
