Thanks for that William - I know what you mean about the "space" thing - and that is something I can usefully work on within the general context of how I approach the piece. Also interesting that it wasn't immediately apparent that the air and the faster section were the same tune - seems incredibly obvious that they are from behind the instrument, and even listening back to myself, but then, one knows as a performer what one is using as raw material and where it is going to go - but not how that comes across to a listener.monkey587 wrote:It doesn't appeal to me. A piece like this, especially a solo & unaccompanied, needs to create a sense of space to really work*. I listened to this track several times today, and I confess that it took me a few times to figure out that the air and the reel were connected.
Thanks, everyone - I've enjoyed this-evening doing this - and feel I've got quite a bit out of it! (Is that sad? Internet geek..... aaaaargh!). I really need to go have a snack and get off to bed. Cheers!
