On My Way To Prague For Orchestral Recording Sessions
On my way to Prague to prepare for the orchestral sessions (and watch some rugby). My main job was done in writing the Cathedral Symphony and the Sea Symphony. These are my babies, the culmination of 60 years of composing but they still need nurturing. I spent the last couple of weeks preparing the parts, so the musicians have an easy read at the sessions. I have been through the scores with conductor, Adam Klemens, and producer, David Jones. I am going to the studio, Smecky Studios, on Friday for another session on the scores with Adam. And I will be there at the sessions on Sunday and Monday, doing my best to keep out of the way, trusting in Adam and David and the 60 musicians of the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra to deliver a great performance every take.
