Inspirational?
About 37 professionally-manned cameras, and high definition audio and video, inspirational?
Blatant self-promotion, inspirational?
A wunch, more like.
If you want to hear heart-felt music, go to a conservatory, not to a bunch of publicity seekers.

In fact this video was created to promote the place (in Spain) for tourists...However the people around wasn't aware of - and that makes all the difference between siting in a concert hall and being there...

The problem with the piece, then, is that I didn't get "Spain or a region thereof" from it, so they might want to rethink a few details.

A sterling performance!
I can't wait for the Japanese version: playing the Moonlight Sonata whilst having their feet nailed to the floor!

That long ago already?
I visited Berlin in 1986 and 1997; it's better without the wall. But maybe we should put a wall around New York.

Depends who you ask. A New Yorker would probably tell you it was to keep everyone else out...

Brings to mind Pink Floyd - Tear down the wall[^].
And speaking of Pink Floyd The Endless River[^] most pre-ordered album/CD in history is due to come out tomorrow. Love the cover and animation on their site.
New version: WinHeist Version 2.1.0
There's a fine line between crazy and free spirited and it's usually a prescription.
I'm currently unsupervised, I know it freaks me out too but the possibilities are endless.

Due to come out tomorrow?
I've already purchased mine. Second CD I've bought this year, the other being Leonard Cohen's new album.
Unfortunately, I've not had a chance to sit down and listen to the new Floyd CD.
Will do next weekend, after exams are finished.

Can't wait I've been a PF fan all my life, since the beginning. (of their's and mine)

Aah, but I still prefer the days of Syd!

He was definitely an influence, in particular in their early years but the guy was really strange.
I tried listening to it but it's just to out there.

He had two (I have both on vinyl!) I think the second was just called Barrett.
He wrote most of the early stuff and I believe that it was him that formed the group. He was weird and, apparently, impossible to work with. "See Emily Play", "Arnold Layne" and "Scarecrow" are pure psychedelic delights.
I really like the naivety of his solo work (although it's certainly not very "accessible"!) I can't remember the title of the track, but listen again to the song that starts "This is a song about a girl that I knew", another is Terrapin. Another track that's pure Syd is Golden Hair.

I'll have another try at listening to him. I really don't care for a lot of Floyd from that era. I bought Meddles when I first got back from my second trip across the big pond and I liked it but then ran on empty until Dark side of the Moon but my all time favorite is Wish you were here.

He may not work for you if you're not a fan of the first two albums (Piper and Saucerful). He played lead and sang on the first, but I'm not sure he performed at all on the second. The second had some Barrett material on it and he was still a strong influence.
Wish You Were Here was very reflective and the title track was at least a reference to Barrett and Shine On was about him.
His solo work is typified by breaking most of (all?) the musical rules with changes in tempo, time signature and key (isn't that Jazz?!!!) - actually sometimes more chaotic than avant-garde Jazz, which is why it is inaccessible. I think it worth a few listens as, like a lot of inaccessible music, perseverance often pays off. The first album marks the downward spiral of a musical genius (or maniac if you prefer - the line is never clear to me), but it's definitely not for everyone.
Your current sig makes me think of Barrett, although I think a lot of the issues were probably non-prescription!
