I downloaded an audio recorder application to my iPhone just before going to band rehearsal Tuesday night, and figured out how to use it in time to record two tracks for here. Since I just put the thing on the floor behind me, I was the closest and sounded the loudest so the balance is heavy on trumpet. And since there’s no audio engineer, just a poor little iPhone trying its best to be a recording studio, it started clipping when the music got loud.

Medley – Freilach #2 in D minor / Die Alte Tzigeiner
oops — it took us halfway through the first strain of the first one to get together on the tempo. On the whole I think it sounds pretty good after that.
That’s me on trumpet, Jim D’Amicco on clarinet, Barbara (I think Burg) on C-melody sax, Jeffery Kleiman on flute, Alan Shuchat on melodeon, Barry Shapiro on accordion, Tobie Geller on piano, and Sarah Kaplan and Susan Farber on violin (if you can hear them)
Deanie, I loved it. Some of it came over a bit blurry, but I think it is great, and I was very glad I could get it!
Love you. Happy Hanukkah or however you want to spell it! Mom
