I always liked bonsai trees, and I was curious to try the approach I
used for Music from a Tree on a smaller scale, so I bought a bonsai
and recorded this little experimental piece.
To determine the key
I used the lowest note I could play and recorded the rest around
it.
Besides playing the leaves, I used bows of different sizes, a
piano hammer and a paint brush.
As far as microphones I used my
Røde NT6, a customized stethoscope and tiny MEAS piezo
transducers.
I played all the sounds and rhythms only with the
bonsai, I didnt use any synthesizer or samplers to create or modify
the sounds. I hope youll like it.
