The point of this and other videos is as a teaching assistant. It works (for me, at least) on different levels.
I can adjust the speed, so that if it's slower (like this one), you can hear the notes, and get a 'feel' for how they all come together (well, hopefully)
I can split out any of the parts - I can give you just Solo, just S, or A, or T, or B, or I can isolate the Sop+Alto, so that you can hear how they sound.
It also allows me to look at the on-screen score, and hear the piece as it progresses.
This and other scores are written in Finale.
After some hurdles, I settled on OBS for the recording, and I find it works very well.
