Yes, but to be fair..it is irritating when you just see the orchestra playing. It makes you think it is an actual recording. I would liked it better if there were some more different shots and cuts. Or an actual live performance. The music is great nevertheless (although I thought that Two Steps From Hell only produce commercial music with digital workstations?)

[@nd0136]

@@C1Ansy The same orchestra as in the video recorded the piece at the same place, on the same session. They just made a couple of additional performances of the whole thing for the purpose of cinematic shots, and the ones that are stationary are probably from when they were actually recording. There is little functional difference between this video and what you're asking for, virtually all "official clips" where you see the musicians perform are made this way :) As for it being an actual recording, Thomas has been using live orchestras for a long time now, although he did start with samples

Wow, a masterful composition. Thomas Bergersen is absolutely unrivalled in this style of music! Watching this video however it doesn't quite look like the piece being performed is the piece we're hearing. Similarly with High C's, some edits seemed to work well with the synch but overall I couldn't shake the feeling that it's not the same piece. I could be way off the mark there and of course you have to wonder why that would be done in the first place! Just out of interest, I'd love to hear the purely orchestral parts of this, it's such a mammoth mix and when the drums and guitar kick in they overpower. That's not a criticism of the mix, it's absolutely fantastic, I'd just love to hear the orchestra as a bonus track or something.
