about

Here is the first of two renditions of Frederic Chopin's Prelude in C minor, Op.28, No 20. This EWI quintet recording follows the arrangement for brass quintet done by Vilmos Székelyhidi (icking-music-archive.org/ByComposer/Chopin.php).

Technical details:
The only change I made from the source arrangement is the rhythm, opting for more of a swing or 12/8 feel than straight 4/4. The EWI instruments used (from top line to bottom) are: Patchman Trumpet, Patchman Flugelhorn, "Trombosax" (Gary Zydek's Airy Tenor), Patchman Bass Clarinet, and Akai's Woodwind (with the octave key to mimic Chopin's original doubled bass notes). The EWI tracks were recorded and mixed on the iPad in the Meteor Multitrack Recorder app. The Meteor mix was pulled into Propellerhead Record for mastering.

I like many styles of music but most of my own productions tend towards jazz with electronic elements. I play the Akai EWI4000s electric wind instrument, ukuleles, guileles, NAF, whistle, recorders, harmonicas, and various software instruments on Windows and iOS. ... more
