To his credit, Arny Krueger has now admitted in
another thread that as his recording activities are
unpaid
Didn't say that, John. But since when have you let a
little thing like truth or relevant facts get in your
way?
So go ahead and say it, GOIA: are you a paid recording
professional or not?
Yes, just not at church.
Where do you do your recording? In a studio?
Paid recordings at regional music festivals.
Arny, have you never made a recording of a decent soloist or
ensemble in a decent room, as a standard recording
session, i.e. mic placement the way you really want it,
etc?
Not really.
A shame.
If not, I hope that you get that opportunity someday.
Me too. Right now it looks like the only way that will happen is if I
provide substantial support for all steps of the process from bricks and
mortar, light and heat, acquisition and development of the artists, running
the technical parts of the performances, recording, mixing and mastering.
I hope that you'll take these suggestions in the spirit with which they
are offered:
If it were me, I'd do the following: Put up flyers at Wayne State and
at WCCC music departments. On the flyer, state that you are a RE,
wanting to practice. You'll record them for (fill in very inexpensive $
amount, or free), if they will reserve the space at the college. Send a
letter to each member of the Applied Music (private lesson) faculty,
making the offer. Tell them that their students (or they themselves)
get a free finished recording; all the teacher has to do is reserve the
hall TWICE: once for rehearsal, once for the recording. It need not be
a performance. The student and/or the Applied faculty should jump at
the chance, especially for students who have their final undergrad or
grad recital coming up. It doesn't matter if there is a recording
program at the college; for an arrangement like this, they would charge
for the recording. If you don't, they will use you. You can get
practice, a good recording, and you will be helping a student. It costs
you nothing but your time.
