Stay-at-home videos

[Tilmansko (Tilman Skowroneck)]

This has become a major thing on youtube; even Lang Lang has started to make stay-at-home videos; Valentina Lisitsa has been seen playing Liszt to her camera with a face mask; one can go on.
I’ve entertained myself recording Couperin’s Baricades Misterieuses and Rameau’s Les Cyclopes.
Link to blog post: Baricades and Cyclopes
Link to YouTube directly:

François Couperin – Les Baricades Mistérieuses. Tilman Skowroneck, harpsichord

and

J.Ph.Rameau, Les Cyclopes – Tilman Skowroneck, harpsichord

This challenge of making single-take good-enough videos is very instructive and highly recommended (no matter the quality restrictions given by the iPhone’s inbuilt microphone).

Cheers,

Tilman
