Winterwood Project: Finding Your Way Home #2

Tomorrow I will have more eloquent words to describe this day but right now I’m just tired so here’s the short version. Recording at www.winterwoodstudios.com went very well. The Steinway sparkled with lovely silver sound and we were done in about 3 hours. The Beaver lakeside studio is gorgeous and afterwards I walked across the swinging bridge down to the water just thanking God for His goodness to me.

Winterwood Project: Finding Your Way Home #1

Tomorrow I’m going to www.winterwoodstudios.com  to record my first solo professional piano project Winterwood Project: Finding Your Way Home. A Steinway grand piano at a state of the art digital studio at a lovely lake setting should be inspiring. One of the biggest internal hurdles was deciding (after being encouraged by many people for a long time now) that my music is worth the time, effort and expense. Well, it is! On the practical side, since some of my pieces are only about two minutes long I’ve arranged them in sets of 5-9 minutes each. That has, of course, necessitated interludes, modulations or magic between pieces and means sometimes six pages per set. Ah, but no page rustling allowed! Reducing and literally cutting and pasting pages and then attaching with removable tape to a  piece of foam core board extending beyond the music rack has solved that problem. May God bless the work of my hands!

Stay tuned…
