Second Karda Estra live video on Youtube

Beautiful song, thanks for sharing this video, Richard!

Thanks for the kind words (especially over New Year) - I hope to make another video reasonably soon.

All the best,
Richard

Hi  Assaf,

Many thanks - not rambling at all!

The new acoustic/live version KE is quite straightforward to do  -  a bit of practice/arrangement - then a meet up and video it. As it's live, there's no real editing etc, just try and get the best levels and add a touch of reverb /eq and up on Youtube by the next day.

The studio tracks are a lot more work of course with lots of recording and editing and they take usually between one and three months per piece.

A version with orchestra as you rightly say would be a lot of work too - be it live/video or for studio/album use. Potentially very expensive too. It buzzes around in the back of my head though. Mike Ostime (who plays trumpet for KE at the moment also is in two local orchestras and we've had a 'what if' conversation, so who knows....maybe one day).

I JUST LOVE THIS MUSIC!! I've only recently discovered KE and simply can't get enough! I've just received "Eve", "Constellations", and "The Age of Science and Enlightenment" and love EVERY piece and can't wait to get more (when I can afford it). I am so GLAD music like this is being made--especially in light of my being a acoustic guitar lover, having four teenage daughters who play double bass, baritone, piano/voice/cello, and oboe/chor anglais/keyboards/guitars/electric bass. KE gives us inspiration to (try to) create music of our own!!
