Clarinet Notes From France (CD & MP3) May 2010

Why You Should Consider Buying This Album

You’ll be making a tangible contribution to my work – helping support my development as a clarinettist the second time around. I personally paid for production costs so 100% of the retail price goes direct to me – no middle men!

Your purchase will encourage other musicians who think they’re not “good enough” or believe that they need to spend a lot of money on the recording process the to get out of the practice room and share their unique style of music making by self-producing an album without the fear of ridicule

You’ll be supporting the concept of more “authentic” recordings i.e., audio that reflects a live performance as opposed to an over-edited, audio “airbrushed” and technically perfect but bland standardised reproduction

You will own one copy of a very limited public release. It’s my intention to re-record in a few years which will be much more of a legacy production at which point this original will be withdrawn

The Making Of Clarinet Notes From France

It was recorded “on location” – a small cottage situated in the heart of the southern Spanish countryside complete with natural sound effects – barking dogs and quacking ducks for example! – which have been digitally preserved intact with the view they added to the rural French feel to the music

The entire 62:46 minutes was recorded over just 2 sessions and mastered in a day with me overseeing the process. In this way, over-editing was avoided and the feel of a live performance retained. As a result, the listener may hear the odd technical blemish just as if they were in a concert hall.

The scheduled sessions in January of 2010 had to be abandoned as my pianist’s house had been cut off by flooding!
