For those who do not know about our project, these recordings are all made with just two mics. No mixing and mastering involved. Just a stereo pickup and a calibrated system to produce the most transparent possible sound.

Your previous piano releases were excellent and your "Angel Cabrera plays Debussy" is without doubt the finest, most realistic piano recording I've ever heard, bar none! So, Mario, I would be pleased to get a copy of your latest work.

I've found your recordings to be top notch, so I'd love to hear another. 

Question: I know it probably can't be done, but is there any way your techniques - or something similar could be applied to a symphony orchestra in a hall? 

I recorded The San Jose (CA) Symphony Orchestra under Maestro Georg Cleve using pretty much the same technique that Mario uses for years (two-mike stereo microphone technique). So, I'd say absolutely and the results were jaw-dropingly real. the method yielded a wide, deep soundstage with spooky accurate image specificity. Every instrument located across the soundstage in the exact spot in the sound field that they occupied on the venue's stage.  But I'd still like to hear what Mario has to say in answer to your query.
