I really miss attending and performing in concerts. It may be a while until they come back. Today, I took a trip down memory lane with some live concert recordings I've made in recent years, and thought I'd share.

These are mostly student groups, but some adult also, and I am in a few. There are split into two folders for two different mic types, as I originally collected these samples to post on a recording forum.

Here is the same spectacular piece performed in two languages. Ešenvalds is originally from Latvia, but is one of the most popular choral composers in the US today. I had the pleasure of meeting him at a conference last year.
