Thanks again for the kind words, prayers, and well wishes. Edward is currently recovering well from the operation although his new kidney has not 'woken up' yet - this is not unusual and it's only been 4 full days since the operation was finished.
A couple of quick replies while I'm here:
Tony: I use a Yamaha Clavinova CLP-130 which has an amazingly realistic touch and sound. I record the audio line out direct to Sonar and then add a little bit of reverb to give it some space. And as Janet suggested, I played it live.
Janet: Yup, you know me well - I played it live. It was my fourth play through that was the one I recorded although the piece really didn't change much from the initial inspiration.
Thanks again, your generosity of spirit is overwhelming.
Cheers,
Terry.
