This video of Bhutan was taken in May 2007 while visiting the country with a group of alumni from MIT. The video spans the ten days I visited. It was shot on an Olympus Camedia point and shoot camera. After editing the film, I settled upon trying a piece from Olivier Messiaen's keyboard works from the 'Vingt images sur L'enfant Jésus'.
The new Seattle Pianist Collective CD is out now at Wall Of Sound, Sonic Boom and Easy Street Records On Queen Anne.

This little movie comes from video taken in Western Bolivia in August 2008. It was
