Saddly I could not help myself. Anyone know of anybody selling Conde A26 cheap? Oh, and a persian santur? I need new ones.[:D]

o you have any audio snippet of the concert?
Sorry no. Honestly, not my best work, although it was a fun gig.
quote:
What does santur sound like?
Hammered Dulcimer, only "modal". There were some quarter tones. I said in the rehearsal "you are going to tune that thing before the show...right?"[:D] I matched some notes by bending, more as a joke.
E---------------------------------------0-----------------------
B------------------------------------------4-0-4-0------------
G--5(bend up a hair and hold)---------------------5+-----
D----------------------------------------------------------------
A----------------------------------------------------------------
E---------------------------------------------------------------
So you bend the C note so it is not a C#. It is inbetween. Then play the other notes and let it all ring. That was one of the persian sounding melodies.
The other instruments were persian percussion and a Keyboard that used strings, flute, and modern synth sounds. Roya used 4 different specially tuned Santurs for the different pieces.
