@cellokatja Thanks! I hadn't originally intended on playing on a camel for the Bach...I just wanted to play in front of the Treasury in Petra. After I was happy with the recordings that I got (on a chair), my camera helper, who was nice enough to help me out that day INSISTED/DARED me to play on a camel. I negotiated that I'd only lean on one and play....ha.....and so this is that one take of me playing on a camel. I thought it was too unique and awesome not to include!

[ganemgg]

you are doing it very RIGHT!! :)

@TheCoffeeFeind Normal!!! We hear nothing with all parasite sounds behind you!!! =)))

This is really good. You should post it on the Musical Overture site so more recruiters and conductors will see it.

Playing Bach very well on a camel, that´s really funny and a great idea! :-D
