An Evening with Avantgarde Acoustic and Tir Na HiFi

[Diapason]

Yes indeed, Fergus. What an enjoyable evening that was, and many thanks to Jonathan and David for arranging it and treating us so well. The guys going tonight are in for a treat!

I would like to express my gratitude to the guys for their hospitality yesterday evening and for a very congenial and educational few hours. The speakers was simply astonishing in terms of quality and detail. Anybody who is in that market would simply have to audition them. If I could afford them I would own them; it is as simple as that....one day perhaps.

I second everything Fergus said! Just want to add that it is refreshing to meet people selling something with a real passion for music as opposed to "HiFi". Combined with actual knowledge about recording engineering and how instruments should sound. Great ambassadors for our hobby!

It would be nice if we could post some details of the material used to demo (especially the Orchestral and Tabor tracks)... :)

From me:
Uffe Steen "Timemachine" - Play on Stunt Records
Liszt - Dante Symphony - Haselbock/Orchester Wiener Akadamie on NCA

[Diapason]

The choral piece with the big crescendo:

[Derek]

Track 12; Send Us A Quiet Night


I played:

Track 8; You Must Come In At the Bottom.



Track 17; If I didn't have a dime (to play the jukebox)


and right at the very end just before I left

Track 1; Wake up old lady

[Diapason]

Track 8; You Must Come In At the Bottom.

This was the "bass" one, right? Might need that.

I played tracks from both of these....

[Ivor]

Track 8; You Must Come In At the Bottom.

Amazing album that. Difficult to get too... perhaps a kindly man would give you a 'backup' of his original. (Gimmie until the weekend)

Actually Ivor, I just ordered it (used) online for €2.48 delivered, so I'm happy out.
