While surfing the internet I came across a web page of Lyn Toll featuring some poems she has written. One of poems ("Tears") triggered a melody in my head eventually leading to this piece. One can actually sing the poem to the music but this recording doesn't feature any singing.
The music features some Irish Folk influences. The poem was used with permission of the author.
The performance is far from flawless, for which I apologize. Cameras really make me nervous ;)
The music is released under a Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike 2.0 license.
Score available upon request.
Some technical data:
The piano is a yamaha GT-2 digital grand piano.
The piano was recorded on a BOSS BR600 multitrack recorder.
The video was shot using an old Logitech QuickCam USB webcam (bad quality!).
Sound and video were mixed using kdenlive 0.7.2.1 on debian linux.
No microsoft products were used in the production of this video.
Dank je wel!
