Name: Debussy: Clair de Lune, EBVTIII by Patrick Wingren
Duration: 5 min
Description: Recorded on a Yamaha C5 grand piano in Spring 2010. The main purpose of the recording is to show how a well-tempered piano sounds in the quite "remote key" of Db major. The piano was tuned in the Equal Beating Victorian Temperament III (designed by Bill Bremmer, http://www.billbremmer.com).

@diggy-thefirst: That's not an uncommon piano in a smaller lecture hall at a conservatory, which was where i recorded the piece. But now, listening to it again, I kind of agree that the added room is a bit plastic, so I just replaced it with the original recording.

The artificial reverb immediately made me think it was a bogus, computer-generated performance. Why have a piano like that in a dead space? Lath and plaster opposing walls of the room! It is really that simple.

Bill Bremmer is a tuning god, isn't he. 

All said, great work. (but lose the reverb and re-post).

This simplistic and (almost too) beautiful arrangement by Siloti was recorded on a Yamaha G2 grand piano in Spring 2010. The piano was tuned in the Equal Beating Victorian Temperament III (designed by Bill Bremmer, http://www.billbremmer.com).
