The present
interpretations are in no way conventional
recordings. The works were entered note for
note in a MIDI sequencer and provided with all
the necessary attributes, such as strength of
attack, dynamics, tempo, etc., that are
necessary for a musical interpretation.
The results of this process were then stored
in MIDI format. MIDI format is extremely
economical in terms of memory requirements,
and therefore especially suitable for
transmission over the Internet. Since this
format is only capable of recording the
instructions for the reproduction of the music,
and not the sound itself, the sound produced is
dependent to a great degree on the output device
(for example, the sound card of a PC). For
the production of the MP3s, the music is played
through a digital piano, and recorded over an
audio interface. For the preparation of the
MP3s, I employ the parameters 44.1 Hz and
128 kBit/s, which yields a compression of
ca. 1:12 in comparison to audio format.
