Nice to get this package of a DVD and two CDs from the 2009 Tokyo concert. The original limited edition issued in Japan has a slightly different selection of tracks and more elaborate booklet, but I think I can live without it.Basically this is not classic Schulze, but it does make a change from his recent collaborations with Lisa Gerrard which tended to outstay their welcome. A combination of delicate sequencing, washes of orchestral tones and the occasional tentative solo makes for a relaxing if unchallenging listening experience - the video is obviously fairly static, but serves to show the extent of the light and video show.
But it looks as if Klaus will be unable to summon the energy to perform frantic solos again - I can imagine his output becoming more soporific as he gets older. I'm sure though that he'll never cease to be interesting.
