i must admit that i got it on my shelf during three years without paying much attention to it... i think this is the one that has taken me more time to 'understand' and from the moment i watched the dvd i got hold to it... it has been the only cd in my cd rom since last weekend. when i bought the berlin 2000 dvd i was looking forward to watching the 'art in heaven' piece (and i indeed think guitar and lights are awesome there) but i was really surprised about tmb tracks in it...
'the doge's palace' is great, the strings, the voices... they all drawing fast spirals... followed by the smart and smooth 'lake constance', i love the clear sound of the classical guitar hold by the orchestra.
and the one that says more to me without doubts is 'broad sunlit uplands', every time i listen to it i feel those shivers... he wisely drew on it the sadness of war... but at the end of it the harmonica (?) gives it hope and hope is what imho is all along this album, hope and a huge strenght
these are till this moment the ones which i'm more keen on but also love the cheerful chants to earth in 'pacha mama' and 'the millenium bell' closes the album with a sweet taste in mouth... actually i don't skip any track. even being different there's a strong feeling of unity among them.
and it's good listening to it at a high volume with or without headphones
