Have you listened to this remarkable double album?
The vocals were liften from concerts in London and
Berlin in the early 1970s. The orchestra was recorded
in 2006. Have you stopped to consider how this may
have been done.

I already know.



:-)


It would be very, very surprising indeed if you did.


Be surprised, then.


I shall only be surprised when it becomes
clear that you really do know, hence my
use of the conditional tense:-)

There are a large number of very skilled music,
mixing and post production engineers who have
been trying to do something like this for a very
long time. Mr Field isn't telling, so the chances that
you *do* actually know are probably very small
indeed, unless you have read a paper that most
of the rest of us have not yet seen. The other
possibility of course is that you have not really
thought about what is actually involved and so
underestimate the complexity of the task.
But please don't think for a moment that I
doubt your ability:-)

Can I pass some work on to you? There is a huge
backlog of excellent material which could well benefit
from this kind of expertise. Some very good concert
vocal performances by Carola Standerskjöld come
to mind.


Yours. Ever 'umble
