Lloyd, et al: This thread has gotten my attention because the choir that I sing with on Sunday mornings will be doing its 2nd professional recording in a few weeks. The recording is being made in the space that we perform in vs. a studio.
I did not sing on the 1st recording but have purchased it &, in spite of criticisms of the singers on their own performance, mistakes, etc., the recording has a nice, fairly authentic sound to it (in regards to the acoustics of the space). Do you think singers making recordings for auditions would be better served by making them in a space they typically sing in, if possible?
