The Hardin Family & Friends Brass Choir
The recordings below were made during an hour session in later November, 2011. No more than two takes were used per track. Margaret and Ellen Hardin (11th and 9th grade, respectively) are on trumpet. Daddy and Mike Ishmael on trombone, switching between tenor and bass. Marianne Gregory is on trumpet for a number of tracks. She and Ellen took turns directing. If you're going to listen to only one track, make sure it's 'Silent Night'. Although far from perfect, we had a lot of fun. Six microphones were used in the setup; one for each instrument and a stereo mic for the group. 'Sonar' was used for recording and mixing, 'Sound Forge' for CD mastering.
