I have to record my next classical solo piano recital (Mozart, Chopin, Liszt, Rachmaninoff) in a small-medium sized church, in which reverb could be a problem.
The piano will be a steinway concert grand and I have at my disposal 2 Neumann km 183 (omni) matched, 2 schoeps cmc5 mk4 (not matched) and 2 schoeps cmc5 mk 21 (not matched).
A lot of people have been asking for me (off-list) to post some clips of either the Gefell M296 mics or the recent organ recording which I had mentioned a couple months ago (or in some cases both).
So...here it is.

Hi guys, miss me?
Both to record and to listen to...
My favorites to record are:
Beethoven - such rich textures in the woodwinds and brass with complex harmonies that really show what a recording system is capable of
Brahms - He's my favorite to use "coloured" gear on. Tube mics and pres with a decent amount of saturation
Hi,
I need to record a few classic piano students for a radio contest.
I do not have any experience in recorging grand-pianos.
Any sujestions on microphone placing will be appreciated
very much (I'll use a pare of Shure KSM27). Thanks,
Costy.
…….Ok you people….
The time has arrived for the first question of

Hello! I need help
here's my story: I have to record a young solo pianist (classical) to make a portfolio CD, the pieces are some of late Schumann's work, some Chopin etudes and some Scriabine. ( basically romantic but very virtuose with lots of dynamic)
