NP aWc - proud of you!

Re the shoes hehe (thanks for giggle Chopin87!).. Hey, but you did leave your hat on

BTW, when Ros performed her interpretation of your "Étude Chromatique", I felt that seeing your shoes there was so charming - very endearing.

Good to see you at work on the stage.
Really love the way you weave synth within the piano piece. So cool.
Hoping for many such concerts - congratulations!
Many thanks.

I knew somebody was going to jump on that! Truth is, I was wearing the nice but stiff shoes I reserve for special occasions. Unfortunately, the pedal feel was almost non-existent. After a half dozen tunes, I decided what the hell, I'm taking them off. Luckily, I was wearing some funky socks

part 2: Pianoteq playback + synthesizer

recap: I had the unusual pleasure of playing a concert in which I used both a Steinway D and Pianoteq.
Quick link to my original post (part 1: the acoustic)

Here is an excerpt in which I solo on synth over a Pianoteq recording titled "sombre". The piece was originally recorded as an improvisation for my album
"la falaise" using a modified Bechstein DG Prelude preset. I am using a Mac mini playing a 24-bit, 48KHz audio file through a MOTU M4 interface, then going to a little Mackie mixer, hooked up by XLR directly to the FOH mixer. The stage speakers are 4 QSC 8" and a QSC subwoofer.
