Marimba
Updated: Feb 25, 2019
A short fugue for Marimba and Strings.
Jenny Klukken - Marimba
Pre-production
We used a spaced pair of AKG 414's directly over the instrument.
A very wide spaced pair of vintage Neuman U47's high up in the room.
Royer SF 24 active stereo ribbon mic - about 4 feet directly in front of the instrument.
Shure Beta 91A Boundary Mic under the instrument at half cardioid pattern.
This is an excerpt from a duet I wrote for Vibes and Marimba.
Beautifully played by Jenny Klukken on her 5 octave Marimba.
I twisted a few things around to get a short edit.
I'll add Pizzicato strings at another session.
Jenny covered a lot of material that day for me, including parts for the Jazz record I'm working on. Played beautifully.
