The complete recording of Symphony No 1 has been released
on 7.7.2010, at the 150th birthday of Gustav Mahler.
Visit the special page with more information and with a
playlist stream of
the complete symphony.
Here on this website all my music can be accessed for free. However, I have also joined a few commercial online music distributors, in order to explore if there is a commercial value and potential for musicians. Such Online Music Distributors (OMDs) have enabled me to put some of my music on iTunes, Amazon, and other online sites - see more details here.
My pre-2003 music renditions have been online on commercial OMDs for a while. Since 10.Feb.2011 also my latest music renditions are available for purchase: I have compiled the latest versions of all renditions which I made in 2010 into my very first "album":
What is this web site?
This site contains my music recordings.
I work with a computer, sequencer, and synthesizer to
create "renditions" of classical
orchestral music.
Since 1993, I have been using computers to record classical music. I have used these electronic means (MIDI control) not with the purpose of creating a "new" sound, but rather with the goal of creating natural sounding musical recordings, reproducing classical orchestral sound, following my own interpretation of the music.
In January 2010 I built a new recording system, MAESTRO-2, running Windows7 64bit, with an Intel Core i7 920 processor, 12 GB triple-channel memory and a RAID-0 disk array. The system has the sequencer Sonar 8.5 and the instrumental sample library Garritan Personal Orchestra 4. With this new system I am now re-recording some of my previous renditions, and am also starting new projects.
The music selection here on this site represents solely my personal taste: I am creating these "renditions" from music works which I like very much and which I know well. Having listened to several different interpretations of these works, I use the computing technology to create my own personal interpretation of the music I like.
This web site is also a kind of testbed for some web technologies with which I am experimenting. One should note that this web site adapts to any screen size automatically, and it should work well on a mobile phone screen too. This is achieved through floating DIV segments. Furthermore, I am using PHP and MySQL for administration of the file information.
