Thanxx, Swedes. Ain't it amazing! Doesn't sound at all like it was performed in 185 living rooms and bedrooms, does it.

It's very clever ... they obviously have better on line connections then we do in Australia*!*
ReplyDeleteLovely if not a little sombre but very clever. I agree with Bimbimbie, our broadband is tragic.
ReplyDeleteBimbimbie: hmmm. I think they recorded their parts individually and then sent them over and he mixed it into real time afterwards. It really doesn't sound like it was done on non-professional consumer durables in people's back rooms, does it..!
ReplyDeleteBaino: did you find it sombre? I thought it was sublime. I love the bits where the choir go all ethereal, also that bit in the beginning featuring one woman in her dining room in musical ecstasy..!
