Live Improv - Feb 23, 2007 #29 (Two pianos)
on: March 16, 2007, 12:52:50 PM
Here's a friend and myself playing a live 2 piano improv. 

Mics: (2x) Studio Projects B1
Interface: Edirol UA-25
Pianos: a pair of Yamaha C7's
Made a Liszt. Need new Handel's for Soler panel & Alkan foil. Will Faure Stein on the way to pick up Mendels' sohn. Josquin get Wolfgangs Schu with Clara. Gone Chopin, I'll be Bach

you mean you and your other hand?  hey, this sounds like me sometimes.

this sounds like travel of a terrible pianist to an accomplished one - and then, he/she slows down and dies at the end right when he/she is getting good.  at least the last note was correct and the best tone of all the others.

Does it really sound like only one person playing?   

That's an interesting analogy, progressing from disorder to refinement.
