[ernststolz]

thanks, good luck!

[AlsatianCousin]

Methinks it's a divided screen ;)

[LegalTranslation]

@AlsatianCousin You're funny! Of course it's a divided screen, it's the same person who plays both violas. I imagine it's not that easy to find such a talented partner, lol.

[UncleTito72]

I think it's the same person. Video editing. And some fancy violas da gamba.

Hello Ernst:

Did you think about our petit proyect?

May be, could be difficult, but not impossible.

I am working in a investigation about Sainte-Colombe. Recording a DVD & CD I thnk we can do a great job, working together.

[ernststolz]

We should think about a way doing this.

[horaciobarroco]

Yes, Ernst. Because we can record each one in his town (Where do you live? I live in Bariloche, Patagonia) Here a recording is cheaper, but difficult to find a label interested...may be in Netherlands, if we choose unrealesed music, don't you think?

[ernststolz]

Well, let's think about the repertoire to be recorded and make some plans. I have troubles to find a good playing partner in my own hometown (Den Haag/ The Hague), so why not like this?

[horaciobarroco]

I like very much this video and it's music & performing...I can't explain how can you made it!

Fantastic

[ernststolz]

You are right, it is one of the better succeeded. I record one part at a time and I can correct a little when I edit afterwards.

[ernststolz]

PS: would you like to play a distant duet?

[horaciobarroco]

Ernst:

¿Do you think we can plan a CD? May be a recording of Suites for solo viol, and a pair o Suites for two Violes...it's an idea.

[ernststolz]

That would be a most interesting project and I think very possible nowadays don't you think?

[horaciobarroco]

I like very much this video and it's music & performing...I can't explain how can you made it!

Fantastic

[aelfricbetera]

A string and keyboard player; well done sir; your fforts have been seen and well noted.. thank you,again..

[ernststolz]

Thanks for your comment.

[joshisaac]

Who made your new viol Ernst?

[ernststolz]

It is the same viol with a new tailpiece, I have found however a better way of recording it, do you like it?

[joshisaac]

the head is painted new as well? And the bridge- was it black before? It now looks like the Forqueray viol.

[ernststolz]

It is a copy of the tailpiece by forqueray and the black bridge goes wonderful with the gold. Without the golden head and black bridge, it makes no sense. only thing is that I need another gamba for the renaissance...

[joshisaac]

who made the conversion?

[ernststolz]

the builder of the viol

[ernststolz]

PS: also an other fact, may be of interest. The soundpost is placed direct under the bridge.

[Luthval]

In fact you are three... there is also the brother playing keyboards !

(very nicely done !)

Val ;-)

[ernststolz]

yes, but he is only a half brother.

[Gealach74]

very nice work!

i didnt know hou had a twin brother!!!! :-)

thanks

[ernststolz]

my twin brother is less talented but he is learnig.

[Sicilianmandolin]

Ah ha! I knew you had an identical twin! :P (joking)

Great music. Thank you.

[ernststolz]

Now our secret has come out...
