You are correct, a small 4-piece string section actually sounded good! Two violins, one viola, one cello, all within 4 feet of a live drum kit, massive amounts of percussion including live chimes, a piercing xylophone, several huge concert bass drums, suspended crash cymbals, and marching drums.
Some may know that one of my favorite bands is Rush. I always admired how they made fans of so many people without much (if any) radio airplay and with crazy songs using odd time signatures, lengthy musical passages, and some whacked out yet beautifully done lyrics.

I mean, what else are they going to do at this point in their careers? But I made the assumption that they were added to be more of a visual thing because someone somewhere was bored or something. Big mistake, Stone. BIG.
I will now give complete and proper credit to their live audio engineer, Brad Madix, for being a complete wizard. Everything I list below is based on what he did. Although probably not your intent, Mr. Madix, thanks for making myself and our church audio product better.
Without live mics as an option, this kind of dumps you into the unfortunate world of piezoelectric bridge pickups. Ugh. Some of these do have a cool design that works well for both the player and the instrument but they almost always sound harsh and thin and require an unwieldy amount of gain. Definitely not something acceptable for an instrument I wanted to translate into something warm and mellow.
Equipped with some new information after witnessing the whole Rush thing, I realized that Radial Engineering had come up with a way to correct this problem that was all hinged on the impedance of the pickup.
For years, I had been plugging a piezo pickup into a traditional DI and just dealing with it. Without something to create a very high input impedance though, the pickup was never going to do a good job. When I heard about some live strings on my horizon for another event, I added this PZ-DI and immediately had a real honest to goodness input. It sounded more like a microphone but without all the gain and bleed issues.
We continued to heed the Rush-induced advice and changed the brands of pickups we had been using as well. Switched to the Fishman V200 pickups for the violins and viola, and the Mighty-Mini #11001 pickup for the cello.
My relationship with Ernie Ball goes back to when I was about 13 and I started playing guitar. I used Ernie Ball strings because the string packaging always stood out on the shelf. When I was 17, I switched to bass guitar. My bass teacher, Gary Nelson, had a StingRay and I loved it. I always thought the circular pickguard was the coolest thing in the world.
I use regular Slinky bass strings 105-50 for my standard tuning basses. For my dropped D bass, we swap out the 105 with a 110, and the other 3 strings stay the same gauge. The strings sound good, they stay in tune, and they are reliable. Just by looking at the packaging you can tell how much Ernie Ball cares about their artists. They put all their names on back of the package!

The Portico of Glory depicts, among other things, a large group of musicians, caught as though in the act of tuning up before performing. Some are in conversation with the person next to them, some are tuning-up, and as a result, it is a surprisingly relaxed and naturalistic carving. I could easily imagine a group of musicians chatting before the start of a gig.
In this case, it has three strings secured by three tuning pins at the top of the neck and at the ornately carved tailpiece at the base. The strings run over a slightly curved bridge, enabling the bow to sound one, two or even all three strings.
All these instruments were accurately recreated from the 11th-century stonework of Master Matteo. The Foundation of Pedro Barri de la Maza commissioned expert luthiers, art historians and musicologists to form a multidisciplinary team to produce the most faithful re-creations possible. There is a video in Spanish describing the process of bringing these instruments back to life.
The Organistrum was for me the most fascinating instrument, due to its mechanical complexity. It appeared to be a cross between a hurdy-gurdy and a Swedish Nyckelharpa. I must admit it is tempting to see if I could build at least one of the Fidula instruments!

For many it may click that Goulding would have a lot to say about the intersection of glory and childhood. After all, she began studying violin at three-and-a-half in her native Ohio, released her first Grammy-nominated album at age 16, and received an Avery Fisher Career Grant a year later. But her approach to the topic is delicate and humble. She seems levelheaded, taking quick moments to meditate on questions before unleashing long insights. This air of modesty especially emerges when asked where she sees herself in ten years.
Creating the album was a particularly special journey, Goulding says, because the two musicians, who are also close in age, were new to the works and learned them together. They recorded over three days in May 2015 at the Rundfunk Berlin-Brandenburg broadcast station.
Pinpointing the right tempo was another task. Goulding listened to different recordings, hearing how different the piece becomes when performers follow different tempos. This was a technique suggested by Tetzlaff.
The process was a bit different from how she put together her self-titled first album, released in 2009 on the Telarc label, where she was invited to summon up a kind of dream list of her favorite repertoire. That approach has seemed to reward listeners; it includes dazzling virtuosic works, such as the caprices from the soundtrack to the film The Red Violin.

Our lives were once filled with strings, many of which we weren't even aware that they were really even there. Musicians pluck the strings of their instruments to generate fluid waves of sound; drawing feeling and relationship between the strummer and those who hearken to it. Avid gardeners will stretch a string over the earth, whereby they plant their seeds in straight rows; in hopes of a future bountiful alimentary harvest. In times past, women working in their homes wore aprons, and represented safety and nurturing to the toddlers at their feet. As toddlers, we never strayed far from that nurturing safety net with the apron. And therein originates the concept of the "apron strings;" which came to symbolize one attached to another, creating a sense of protection and guidance.
In modern times, we find ourselves attached to the airways of murmured alliance; destitute of the closeness of the strings long past. Instead of plucking the strings with our hands, feeling the vibrations from within, and sending forth our feelings in undulating waves; we rely upon an electronic negotiator to replace the physical touch. It lacks cordiality and the warmth of emotional experience. Planters rows give way to fluorescent malls and plastic bags; no more to feel the warmth of the earth, and the pride of freshly picked sustenance. As we grow older, we each seem to pull away from those strings of the past. Stretching outward, we begin to snap the strings one by one. We can work and connect and play, without ever feeling the warmth of the sun on our faces; the smells of the world outside our door becomes foreboding and apprehensive. And at some point we find ourselves without attachments, nor even obligations, to our origins. The apron strings of our youth are nowhere in sight.
Where is hope without the strings of old? Where is expectation when the cyborg creates without feeling or warmth, but merely replicates by necessity? Hiding behind an artificial safeguard, where prevarication and adjudication abound in separation from truth. Without the strings of old the barriers arise as vacant walls; advancing ever onward toward nothingness. Contriving festering dread and isolation from what was to become our own creation. Absenteeism becomes the abyss we sought to avoid; yet, we continue to advance into nothingness; devoid of physical interaction with the world that engulfs us,
The apron strings of our youth were filled with hope and expectations that were without measure - and they remain all around us; we need only to reach out and grab hold. When the strings become the means of our lives, excepting the tragedy and the joy as a part of the same instrument, the same row, or that same apron of each of our lives; the world we live in becomes less frightening, less barren, and more passionate. The glory of man is not measured in armies and wealth; but rather in the strings he has held onto, and the strings he has created for others. At the end of the day, open hearts and open doors allow strings to reach everyone and everywhere making hope a shared experience for the whole world.
