The Empiricist Soundtrack CD

Based on the soundtrack for the movie “The Empiricist,” this CD features the compositions of Felix Mendelssohn and Loretta Jankowski, and was recorded in a unique way to provide exceptional clarity and a concert-line musical experience. The CD offers an eclectic range of music, from classical to jazz, and finishes with a “pop” song that is played at the end of the movie.Loretta Jankowski composed all of the music except for the first track which is Mendelssohn’s “Calm Seas and Prosperous Voyage” op. 27. Loretta received her classical training at several schools in the U.S., as well as in England and Poland. Her music has been performed by many orchestras, including the Chicago Symphony and New Jersey Symphony.Since the recording technique used for this CD was quite unusual, we wanted to include a brief description of how it was done.Typically, when recording many instruments, at least one microphone is assigned to each instrument. It can take many hours to place all the microphones for
