Sound material is available for AKAI sampler (on CD)
The pianist plays on sampler keyboard and celesta.
The sampler is used and works in the whole piece.

Needed equipment:

1 Sampler AKAI S5000 or S6000, with following options:
- Operating System V2.14
- 128 MB RAM
- Sample Verb II (EB 20) Multi Effects processor
(standard installed in S6000)
- N.B. sampler uses MIDI input A, MIDI channel 1,
Audio outputs 1/2 (L/R)

1 SCSI CD ROM drive + SCSI cable
(for loading data into sampler)
- N.B. AKAI sampler uses half pitch SCSI connector

1 MIDI Masterkeyboard 88 keys, weighted action keyboard, 
has to be connected to the sampler (input A), MIDI channel 1.
- sustain pedal   (Roland DP8, or DP10, or Yamaha FC4)
- 1x MIDI cable [Masterkeyboard to AKAI]

Needed 2 loudspeakers, hanging above the orchestra
- each more than 100 Watt - with good quality in bass range
(low freq.): placed behind the percussionists, about 3-4 m high.

The keyboard player has his/her own level control
on the sampler output and could fix a good sound
during the rehearsals, so sound-control of the hall
is not needed.
