Part 2 of our Classical Favourites deep dive is here, and this time we’re taking you inside the recording and editing process!

Imagine spending 4 days in the legendary Studio One at Abbey Road, squeezing in 36 hours of recording sessions witg a 65-piece orchestra and choir. No pressure, right?

In Part 1 we talked about the concept, choosing the repertoire, and recomposing famous classical music into editor-friendly versions for TV and Film.

In Part 2 we move onto the recording stage. Working in one of the most famous rooms in the world, navigating union rules around how much music you can record in a day, and the nerdy world of editing, mixing, versioning and plugins.

We also share some slightly ridiculous stories that happened along the way, including the time we decided to record a cannon shooting for the 1812 Overture. You can’t say we composers don’t commit to our art!

Whether you’re a film composer, classical music enthusiast, or curious about the world of production music, this one’s for you!
