Greensleeves... for many EWIs!

#EWI #Greensleeves
I made an arrangement from scratch for this one, featuring some EWIs (Electronic Wind Instruments), precisely the new AKAI EWI Solo, which I just bought out of curiosity.
This is the first work I did with it and I had lots of fun creating the piece. I never played an electronic instrument and I found the EWI to be surprisingly flexible in what it does. It offers many different settings and patches to help creating amazing sounds with its internal synthesizer. Being new to this way of making music, I definitely have lots of possibilities to explore with this instrument.
On a side note: coming from the oboe it took a couple of days to get used to the touch controls and especially the octave rollers, but in the end I got fairly comfortable with it and the EWI definitely feels more immediate to play than an acoustic instrument.
I used the same patch for all the voices, since I wanted to create a sound similar to an organ, in the way the voices blend themselves together. But since the EWI offers lots of other patches and settings, I will definitely work more on using different sounds at the same time and see how far one can get.
The video editing itself is a but raw, since I only used my smartphone in an attempt to find out the limits in creating a complex project without the help of a PC. In the end I couldn't be more precise that that, but I spent surprisingly little time bringing everything together, just under an hour of editing, so I'm overall satisfied with the experiment.
have fun listening to it! :)
