This was a productive week. I finished with the bass harmonica, recording phrases for the B sections of 727, DC-10, & DC-9. Thus, I was able to get a head start on recording fretless bass recordings. I was able to record two fretless phrases for each of the following movements: TriStar, 737, DC-8, 707, and 747. I was also productive outside of the recording project, finishing a grant report, a conference presentation, some sound design work, and a conference presentation proposal.
In the interest of having some visual content on the entry I’ve included the score for the string parts for DC-10. In the B section, the beginning of the example, the strings only use the notes G, B, C, D, & F#. In the A section, the strings reduce to only using G & E, ending on harmonics. This will be one of two movements that use tremolo in the string parts.
