oye - here is a recent effort for your critique and comments.  always trying to find ways to improve this sort of stuff.  used to be only audio work, but now everybody wants video too.  the performance was with alive audience and a loud HVAC which gave me fits during post.

audio was ORTF KM140s and AB DPA 4090s > Lexicon U42s > Thinkpad T410 i7 running Reaper.  video was captured with panasonic ZS7 AVCHD at 720p.  syncing was done with adobe premiere and output as mp4 at 720p.

'Tis the season to catch the classical craft.

How 'bout a symphonic flash mob revelatory railstation Ravel Bolero blare-o blowout & bow-out?

Ingenious staging particularly appropriate for the piece I think.

Nice work, no warts I see or hear.  I enjoyed this when you posted a couple months back & didn't mean to neglect to comment.

I'm looking forward to my Carnegie Hall Piano virtuosos series. I've got center balcony first row all year (and a low pro schoeps m-s rig on the way...)

hiya gutb - thanks.  fun stuff.

just did some work at octoberfest in mt angel, oregon.  one of the wierder performances was an alpenhorn/accordian/cow bells trio - very entertaining.  here is a link to harp, flute, clarinet trio doing some norwegian folk songs by grieg.

I'll likely have an extra seat for some of these, and there are great slats in the balcony for the positioning of  microphones.

Interesting instrumentation is cool.  I bet that alpenhorn was something else. I was once at a Tibetian monistary when a large religous festival was underway and 4 or 6 monks were playing those huge Himalayan equivalent horns (plus bells, gongs, and the rest). I wish I had made a recording of that!

Love to make it to Carnegie someday, though in my case it will certainly be as audience member.  I'll just keep recording, recording, recording 'till I get there.

Get a load of my dentist:

He's played all the great symphony halls in the world including Carnegie

Alternate chops.

Unlikely, but is he an woodsman or pig farmer as well?
Wait, maybe me he dabbles in the martial arts!

[bobbygeeWOW]

Unlike myself I would doubt that he's involved in those sorts of more ... er, primal undertakings Lee

Possibly martial arts, but I will testify that he's got a good touch when wielding sharp objects down my hatch ...
Not many people study world class piano on the side while running at the top their class in dentistry school!

Chops is chops, vont diverses.
