Guitar Recordings

A dark corner on my web site (the lighter part is here) with recording(s) of me playing classical guitar. Don't know if this will grow or go away.

Ensemble Recordings

December 8, 1999

Times, Tides, and Tiles together form the composition "One O One" by Jan Westra. It was inspired by the US highway 101, which runs along the pacific coast through Washington, Oregon, and California. We played this with the Tilburgs Gitaarensemble in 1999 in Enno Voorhorst's residence (a world premiere :-)). At the time we were with five guitar players, Joost Ahsmann, Hetty Brekelmans, Steven van de Par, and I think Esther Vink (or Eugene Marcelissen, or Erik ...), and myself.

Microphone Preamplifier

On August 25, 2007 I also used my home-built "cookie container microphone amplifier", which makes for less noise. I am still looking for a better one.

Bit rate, sampling frequency

Recorded at 24 bit 44.1kHz.

Editing software

Edited with Audacity and converted to 192 kbit MP3 with the Lame encoder for bandwidth reduction. Did this on a PC with the Debian stable linux distribution.
