the Ravel. It was done by:
- Creating a short arrangement (4 minutes)
- Sending to each of 50 musicians a score and a full soundtrack
including metronome clicks. LilyPond would be great for extracting parts.
- Giving them 4 days to record footage
- Editing the audio and video at length, and cheating by mixing in
tracks from a previous performance by the same orchestra
In the past I tried to record both parts of a fast duet on a Casio
keyboard. It would play back a track while allowing you to overlay it
with another. The results were horrifying, even with no latency issues,
and gave me an appreciation of how difficult synchronization is. (I had
typeset the duet in LilyPond
