Video - Rach and Chopin Revolutionary
on: September 29, 2006, 02:38:34 PM
Dear Friends,

I invite you to have a look at videos from my St. Martin-in-the-Fields recital in London this year. Please note the low sound quality and incoherence, it is due to recording made by digital photo camera in short clips, put together.

Rach:


Chopin:

  Not bad, it is average piano playing with what sounds like either a bad recording set-up or constant memory laps. ::)

wow. st. martin in the fields recital.  perhaps the video clip is not doing the recording sound justice.  the piano sounds a bit harsh - but mellower when played slightly softer.  i feel that the dynamic ranges could be a couple of degrees less.  sort of pushed in together.  tighter.  but, your talent and expertise probably tell you what WILL project.  listening in a small salon room vs a large recital hall must be very different. 

whenever you have time, i hope you will critique us!  if i can figure out how to record myself and put some recordings on this site.
