[pianotech] mp3 recordings - How?

[Dale Erwin]

Hi Ron
  Having heard your pianos up close and personal in Reno and in Rochester, it is my opinion that the recording is very, very much like being there in person. Also that cut is one of my favorite on the Lilacs Album. The trebles are crystal and golden. Clear as bells,ear candy, insert any metaphor you want. Not like any I've heard before or since. When I first heard those trebles many years ago now I said " I gotta head in that direction" tonally.
   In fact as Jacob my son has grown musically ,taking piano lessons again I would play some of my favorite music, saying, hey, just listen to this. I played the Lilacs album. He said can I put this on my I-pod.Now he loves Rachmaninoff. He loves the sound of the piano. I am sooo shrewd.
Thanks
Dale

David and all,


Thank you David. It was Scott Davie's initiative to record theaudio CD from which this track came. He is a very fine pianist, withan amazing ability to shape a work, particularly with respect to hissensitive use of rubato. Scott hasn't unfortunately been a householdname, possibly because he's not one of those what-about-me pianists.He gave a copy of the CD from which this track came, Lilacs, toVladimir Ashkenazy. Mr Ashkenazy clearly recognized Scott's talent,and he is booked to perform Tchaikovsky's Manfred Symphony andRachmaninoff's original version of his Piano Concerto No.4, with theSydney Symphony Orchestra (SSO) at Sydney Opera House on November 21,23 and 24.


The concerts are already heavily booked, although there are stillsome tickets available.
Here's a link to the SSO's whats on page

Below is a link to an18:40 minute 192K file of Scott Davie playing Rachminoff's Variationson a Theme of Corelli on my 225 cm grand piano no. 3.

This is a classicalrecording, and the microphones were placed to get more of the room,relative to the closer mic placement typical of a jazzrecording.
