In mid–December 2007, I began playing with Nikhil Tiwari in preparation for live shows to begin in summer 2008.

Almost finished mixing and mastering The Dedication. High–quality stream on my space or here.

The sessions with Mari, Vasu, and Terence went very, very well.

Pictures on flickr.

I used a Groove Tubes GT55 microphone, courtesy of Mr Mike Dory, to capture the bass side of the piano, and an AKG C414 B–ULS microphone, courtesy of Mr Koji Matsuda, to capture the treble side. The result was a clear recording of The Dedication, with slight audible variations in tone. Extensive mastering sessions should balance everything out.

The angel Koji was a godsend during the sessions. He brought in extra mic cables, mic stands, helped me to setup the recording room, and was an overall wonderful addition to the 2–day session. It's nice to have friends sent by angels.

And now, to the mastering sessions...

8 January 2008
Going into the studio tomorrow and Thursday to record The Dedication formally with three very talented pianists: Mari Suzuki, Vasudevan Panicker, and Terence Boyer.
