Hindemith viola concerto (mp3)

• Performed Tom Wright on a NV Viola

"This is a bit of the Hindemith viola concerto, which I did for a film project by my son. I played straight into my computer's sound card, added reverb in SoundForge, minimal EQ (some high cut from inline volume controls and a bit of graphic EQ to further tone down the highs.) I'm amazed at how real it sounds."
