Post Bela Bartok on Chapman Stick
Hello everybody!
Just shot a new video. This time I tried to play some Bartok. The tune is called "Stick Game"... I thought the title was perfect for trying :D

So here it is:

It was really a hard time for me to put this down, it's not perfect, but so far I cannot go further, technically :)

I hope you like it the same :)

Have a nice Sunday

Grazie. I can see where difficulties are. Nice played...you should do more. Each time I hear different styles on the stick I realize there is no limit on this instrument.

Thanks everybody for the kind comments!

In reply to Bas: for the mix, I recorded the stick directly into my soundcard (a Tascam US-1641) at 48/24, then applied a compressor, then a high shelving eq, then a ultramizer and finally some reverb (all VST plugins, and all of them with small interventions).
Somebody complained about an excessive separation of the channels in the stereo field, but.. well it sounded good to me :)

Great job. You should be proud. One word of advice.... don't apologize for mistakes. It was nicely done and leave it at that. Congrats
