Songs for Mini Sets
You’ve been invited to perform at a hafla and the time limit is around five minutes. If you can’t find a singular song that allows you enough variety to showcase your abilities, put together your own mini-set. With a little editing (Audacity is free to use), you can have your own mini-set.
