I've listened to the first part. The recording quality is not optimal. Because of a too high volume level, you hear distortion. (35:03-35:05, 35:55, 40:46 etcetera) Furthermore the way it was recorded gives strong "stage-noise". Sounds like they mounted microphones at the stage floor itself....
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comment.
DeleteAs far as the first issue is concerned, that is one of the problems if you are recording with a programme like Audacity. You just don't know the volume of the transmission in advance, and adapting the volume of the recording during the transmission is hardly an option. I expect this performance to be broadcast by other channels in the next months. If that happens I'll try to make a better recording.
The second issue is entirely beyond my control. I assume that you are right about the microphones. It was probably an attempt to make the sound as 'realistic' as possible, forgetting that the result can be annoying if you can't see a thing.
Thank you for your great work! What a marvelous resource for phantastic music!
