What should I wear?

21C Request: “No specific preference but it would be great to try to root the players visually to their country of origin, through their clothes or backgrounds of the videos, so that it helps us show the range and breadth of the GO orchestra. I leave it to the players’ discretion how they can best achieve that, whenever possible.”
