Recording the Manhattan Brass playing Paquito D’Rivera and Wynton Marsalis
Here are some photos of the Manhattan Brass recording Paquito D’Rivera’s “Four Songs For Brass” and Wynton Marsalis’ “Spiritual and Blues.”
The recording sessions took place in April 2009, at the Middle Collegiate Church in the East Village of NYC.
Audition Recording Tips
I recently gave a presentation to the Juilliard PreCollege brass department about recording; covering basics about sound and the equipment used, as well as important things for our students to keep in mind while making audition recordings (“audition tapes”).
Later, I sat down with Rebecca Braun, the Juilliard Pre-College’s Performance Activities Coordinator, and author of the PreCollege Newsletter, to answer some questions for the Newsletter related to making an audition recording. She wanted to share some of the information I had taught the brass class with the whole student body.
