Orchestra & Synthwork 33 by Tom Main

"Orchestra & Synthwork 33". An atmospheric piece. In this video I get to stand up. Unfortunately I didn't show you why. I had synths out of the frame which I was manipulating. Synthesizers, when operated in a performance situation often need tweaking, program selection/variation and various parameter alterations. You play the "buttons" almost as much as you play the keys. It is one reason I multi-track, simply because my hands are literally full with any given synth at any one given time. In live performance the "buttons" become part of the performance. Some people see this as "fiddling" or "indecision" when in fact the actions are premeditated and needed as part of rendering the performance. It is the nature of playing (not always) a synthesizer. I hope you find this of interest and enjoy the music. Love, Tom 😊
