Finished a studio recording with Victoria this evening(Sunday). Vic is 10-year old yamaha student who has composed a flute and piano piece to send to Japan for competition, and I've been asked to help her with a recording of the piece.
Went to this place called Lions Studio, Commonwealth Drive, quite close to Holland V. They have quite a professional setup there, looks like a good place if Guitaresque or Masak decides to do a recording of some sort. *heh heh*
I was quite nervous about recording on flute, not exactly easy to keep everything in good intonation. Well, heck, I decided to just enjoy myself and play. Everything went quite smoothly, since both of us had rehearsed together on 3 separate occasions. Gelling up wasn't much of a problem, Vic had good listening sense and she read my cues/movements really well. I was pleasantly surprised actually on our rehearsals; there are some young pianists who are so used to listening to themselves play, they hardly do any co-ordinating when they're in a ensemble!
We didn't get to listen to the recorded work, I do hope they send me a copy.

Yup, Guitaresque was there once to record QoS and Estampas.
Estampas was ok recording. Done in 1 take.
Qos was no recording. On-site rehearsed for 3 hr. Got frust, ANGRY and gave up.

hahaha.. u r rite, old goat.. with one correction - it wasnt quite Guitaresque then, i think the name could have been "Genre GQ" ! hahah!
*Fandango was recorded there as well. *
Anyway, back to the studio, i think the results were quite satisfactory. Afterall, they ARE professional yah? (so shouldnt have editing/mixing issues *Ahem* )
