Topic: World-class opera tenor with world-class Pianoteq Steinway B

My setting of the classic text LET THE WORK OF CHRISTMAS BEGIN featuring San Francisco Opera tenor Chris Colmenero with me performing
on the Pianoteq Steinway B - Distant Mic so as to not compete with the vocal.

I completed the piano part at home and added the vocal in the studio.
Recently I returned to the project trying different pianos.

Re: World-class opera tenor with world-class Pianoteq Steinway B

Really nice one.

If I were you, I would try use different setups with Pianoteq. Now the sound is too clean and thin to me. I would try with distant mic and turn the FXP all the way up, take condition slider down from mint condition and add reverb to piano. Maybe small hall -preset would do. Anyway I prefer more "wide" and warm piano sound.

Really well played.
