Kool as always, Ken.  You are indeed the Bestivo.

What soundfont have you loaded into fluidsynth?  What recording device
did you use?

There appears to be some AGC pumping happening, so I'd mess with that -
probably turn it off if supported - to improve the dynamics of the next
recording.

I understand it's just illustrative, but still a pity that not all the
music's subtlety comes through.

How about running some nice big VU meters or some visualization app in a
xterm to produce a more kinetic display for the edification of your
listeners/viewers?

Alternatively, a scrolling display of the MIDI events would be cool, no?

Gotta run...gig tonight at the local Buffalo Astronomical Association
club's holiday party.  A very eclectic mix on tap for the revelers
including my "professional" debut on soprano recorder (Greensleeves duet
with a dude who runs the Buff. State planetarium and another member on
guitar accompaniment)!
