The video was recorded during the recording sessions for the CD. Some different
takes were used to mix the final CD audio track though. Monsaignon reports it
was a very moving occassion for all involved ask the crew threw a party at the
end which alas GG declined to attend. 

I've not seen the video - will get it but I know its going to make me cry the
whole way through (!). (I was very very moved by a live performance of the GG
quartet at the last GG festival in Holland - perhaps it was the first time I
felt I had some kind of direct communiucation with GG and I felt overwhelmingly
saddened by the work. Quite a day I can tell you).

I'm planning on coming to toronto BTW - I've sort of promised John Miller so I'd
better be there.
