Happy to travel.
Venue to supply: suitable grand piano (eg. Yamaha C5 or C7) tuned and in good condition; music stands and sconces; microphones, PA and monitors appropriate for the stage and venue with auxiliary inputs feeding two discrete
foldback mixes. Musicians to provide: double bass, bass DI & Mic, drum kit and cymbals.
If a suitable drum kit with cymbal stands is available at the venue, it could help keep costs down.
PROJECTION
The TAKE FIVE show will supply a presentation (including audio) for projection to the rear of the stage.
Theatre to supply projector, screen and HDMI or RBG/DVI plus stereo audio input as follows:
A live video camera feed, being close-up vision of the musicians, will be operated by our own video technician and blended together with the slide presentation using VJ software from a Mac laptop situated next to the video camera. We require a HDMI (or RGB/DVI plus stereo audio) input to the theatre projection system; the theatre to provide cabling of sufficient length to reach the video camera/laptop. Our technician will need to mount his video camera on a tripod in a position such that the camera can zoom into the piano keyboard, saxophonist, drum kit and bassist. It may need to be mounted in the auditorium to one side, provided the cable input to the projection system can be extended appropriately. Otherwise, it can be mounted in the lighting booth provided there is an open window to the auditorium and the distance from the video camera to the stage is no greater than 25 metres.
