Harpischord Recording

Send us a text


In this short episode, I describe the process I went through on a
recent recording project. We were recording a harpsichord, an
instrument I had some experience recording, but never before as a
solo instrument in the studio.

Here is a link to a video made during the recording
session.

We were recording a Bach Fantasy and Fugue piece, played by
George Hazelrigg. George has been playing harpsichord all his
life, although the piano is his main instrument these days.


It took us about ten hours of experimenting to get the sound we
wanted. I describe the process.


Although you may never have occasion to record a harpsichord like
this, you might still find the process I went through useful.


In the podcast, I mention a video we did that describes our
technique for recording grand piano. Here is the link to that
video:
