Email address to use: info@leahymusiccamp.com

We-Transfer - send us a link

Recording - Helpful Hints Expand

When recording your part, listen to your guide track (vocal, piano, violin, etc.) with earbuds and determine your entry point - when you'll need to start recording yourself. There will be different entry points for each instrument/vocal part. Remember that your final audio recording should have just you and your recording on it. All of the guide tracks should not be heard on your final recording. The world of recording technology is an exciting place and once you figure it all out, you will want to visit and explore it even more! Good luck and enjoy the adventure!

The orientation of your video should be landscape. 
Do your best and don't worry about being perfect! It will be great!

Ae Fond Kiss - Lyrics

 

  Ae Fond Kiss   

                                                                      Robert Burns                                                                       

1. Ae fond kiss, and then we sever;

Ae fareweel, and then forever!

Deep in heart-wrung tears   I'll pledge thee,

Warring sighs and groans I'll wage thee.

Who shall say that Fortune grieves him,

While the star of hope she leaves him?

Me, nae cheerfu' twinkle lights me

Dark despair around benights me.

2. I’ll ne'er blame my partial fancy,

Naething could resist my Nancy;

But to see her was to love her;

Love but her, and love forever.

Had we never lov'd sae kindly,

Had we never lov'd sae blindly,

Never met—or never parted—

We had ne'er been broken-hearted.

Deep in heart-wrung tears   I'll pledge thee,

Warring sighs and groans I'll wage thee.

Naething could resist my Nancy;

But to see her was to love her;

Love but her, and love forever.

Had we never lov'd sae kindly,

Had we never lov'd sae blindly,

Never met—or never parted—

We had ne'er been broken-hearted.

UPDATE:

Message From Louis Schryer to all participants playing the violin in Camp Chorus:

Some of you are probably wondering how to get the file to the right person 🙂
So here's what to do:
1) Please upload your video (it should be fairly large) to Google drive, Wetransfer or Dropbox.
2) Once uploaded, please send me a link to that folder. Make sure to share it and allow me to edit. louisschryer@wqsb.qc.ca
3) From here, I will download all files and organize them for our tech guys! There will be over twenty videos to go through so I'm trying to facilitate by organizing the parts.

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
To fiddle students taking part in the Camp Chorus:
1) Please let me know which part you will be recording (by email). louisschryer@wqsb.qc.ca.

2) Levels to consider:

  • Advance : Violin 1, Violin 2, Violin 3  (one or all, up to you)
  • Intermediate : Violin 2 or Violin 3
  • Beginner : Violin 3
         Since I cannot adjust the parts, if there is a section you decide to omit, that's fine as well!
3) Please don't select the violin solo part. I will be contacting a few students/possibly teachers for this violin solo part with specific instructions. I will also be doing this section. The other parts are very important to fill in the harmonies required for this to work 🙂
    Once I know how many players of each part we have, there's a possibility I may ask you to do a certain part. This will allow for an even balance across the parts.
4) Listen to the recording with all violins to get a sense of it. Then select the part. There is sheet music and an audio clip of each part. Keep in mind, the audio clip of each part is without the audio of the song. Therefore there will be space here and there where you will not hear anything. The sheet music will help you understand what you are listening to.

5) When recording, listen to the Camp Chorus with all violins with earbuds. If possible, count out loud with the piano intro 1-2-3-1-2-3-1-2-3... Don't worry if you miss the first count. Only count during the first three bars, please don't count on the fourth bar. We will take the count out of your video. This will make it easier to sync.

6) The orientation of your video should be landscape and only you as audio. Do your best and don't worry about being perfect! It will all blend in 🙂
Thank you so much for being part of this and for your cooperation!
Any other info required will be posted. Check back here for updates.

Contact Louis at: louisschryer@wqsb.qc.ca.

Special Note: there is a new Camp Chorus deadline: it is now Aug 6th, 2020. Please have all your recorded parts (audio/video) submitted by Aug 6th.
