\ahh. yes. classical music. i remember that. private lessons in clarinet, and then years of the same in trumpet, a season in the orange county youth orchestra. but ... that didn't really make me happy, but i did it. i learned alot about how music is put together,i record lots of music now, but i don't really know much about classical music.. but why the hell would you enjoy the sound of more than one instrument at once, as you claim to if you like classical music, if what you say about "enhancements" is true. a string peice could be pulled off with just a cello, i suppose, but it sounds a sh*tload more interesting with a quartet.. the other instruments are enhancements.. and while it might be nice to be in a quiet , soundproof room playing violin, when it's performed you're gonna wanna play it in a huge arena, perferably with a properly shaped shell to "enhance" the sound..
the drum playing in this video was reaaaaly good, and thats coming from someone who's really not that interested in drums for the better part. not "good for a kid" but "good" period.. the echo may or may not have been neccessary, but enhancements are not "BAD" it certainly didn't detract any from the recording.
