Recording at AIM

The Sydney Male Choir makes some of its annual income from sale of CDs. Because of our changing repertoire, we need to put out a new CD each year. This year, we had four recording sessions over three days on 4th, 5th and 12th August 2012 at the Australian Institute of Music recording studios. Session were about 2 hours each.

I’ve done a few recordings. They are always very hard work, especially the extreme level of discipline needed: zero extraneous sounds; concentration on timing, tempo and tone; watching and listening. Hard work for a group of old blokes who are used to having things their way.

About 50 of us turned up.
