Quelle création ! A la fois tonifiante et apaisante, c'est le double effet Misonne.

Bruno nous offre 5 minutes de séquences de rêve qui, à l'instar d'onguents à la composition savante, continuent à faire effet longtemps, longtemps après leur application.

Merci Bruno, continue !

Well, first I have to say that watching the downloaded version is far superior quality to the one I originally saw online. The picture is far more defined in both colour and quality, so I would say to anyone really wanting to see this video in all its splendour, do as Bruno suggests and download it.

The intro begins without us seeing the actual flight footage and immediately begins to create a serene backdrop to the upcoming visual extravaganza. The birds twittering away alongside the chattering crows, together with the sounds of cowbells immediately creates a country scene, and one that feels like summer time outside the clutter of the buildings that most of us are surrounded by every day. I can feel the warmth in these effects and it is only strengthened by the introduction of what I can only presume is a tuba by its deep throated notes. The slow speeded build up also helps to set the scene that follows wonderfully, by allowing the viewer to feel calm and restful. I believe that when listening without the pictorial magnificence of the video, I already felt as if I might be a mighty Condor just gracefully rising on the thermals around me, with the merest of effort to do so on my part. The tuba gives the impression of grandeur and thus this is where the mighty Condor seems to come from. When I see the actual video begin with a glider doing the very same thing as the Condor created in my minds eye, a little pleasing grin appears on my face, because I know that what I have both seen in my minds eye, and what I have been shown on the screen, really are one in the same thing, just from different viewpoints.

At 0:40, the introduction of a Harpsichord, backed by the flute and I think some strings, are then so comfortably encapsulated by the angelic voices, that I feel like I am lying on a huge pile of sweet smelling grass, but also completely surrounded by it. The voices leave my minds eye wondering whether my Condor has indeed been replaced by angels, or that the field I am in has many piles of grass, and that I am joined by the people behind the voices. They, unlike I, because my voice is rubbish these days, cannot help but rejoice at the beauty of the Condor softly moving from one direction to another, as it too expresses its delight, to the wondrous life around it that creates this chance for it to almost meditate on the wing, just as the glider seems to be doing in the video. The introduction of trumpets/horns only adds to the sheer tranquillity of life as seen in my minds eye; in the real world around us, and in the glorious video Bruno has painstakingly mastered for us all to seriously enjoy.

At 1:46 the rejoicing continues, but one element is underlined as things pick up, and that element is Freedom. The reintroduction of the flute, along with the violins and brass section adds a little playfulness which only enhances how special freedom is. We know this from our own experiences in this world, but just imagine for a moment how free we could really feel, if only WE could fly, for to fly in any manner just has to be the ultimate liberty, no wonder birds sing all the time.

At 2:11 the little yellow single engine aircraft shows us just how free it really is, and of course how free we could really feel, if as I have said, we could only fly. As time ticks on, the energy increases as percussion picks up a notch or two. The whole section from here to 2:47, sweeps on with energy and enthusiasm, until at 2:48 this celebrated piece takes a few moments (about 10-12 seconds) to let us take stock of all that we have seen and heard. At this time I love the way the Spitfire is shown in a whole new light: it is normally known for its speed and strength in the air, but on the ground taxiing out onto the runway, against the tranquillity of the flute, it really can be viewed just for its fantastic lines, its beauty in the machine itself and although I dont need much convincing of what an immense aircraft this was, I am very pleased to be reminded of just how good-looking this aeroplane is, just in itself.

The peacefulness of the flutes, beautifully mixed with the playfulness of the percussion and quick notes of the violins brings the two elements of flight beautifully back together again, and then, with the introduction of piano and helicopter effects at 3:48, we are shown both visually and aurally, the excitement that comes with flying. As the strength of the flute builds during this section, it once again underlines that freedom, as does the visions of the planes in this sequence. Watching the planes here emphasise this even more, but especially so when the biplane does its tricks with coloured smoke like a banner of that freedom I mention so often throughout this piece. I feel like the helicopter, although not on screen, is sat not very far from me, readying itself for its moment of glory and until I do finally see it on screen, an intense rush of expectation builds throughout me while watching everything else before my eyes.

When the copter hits the screens, its short, its magnificent to behold, and its just perfect. The overwhelming power of the strings goes superbly with the same saturated majesty of a vehicle that is the absolute master of its own brilliance. We would be overdosed if it were allowed to spend longer watching it go through its paces, while it really showed us just what it is capable of.

The little red stunt plane that takes over from the chopper once more refines the happy spirited side of flight. The exquisiteness of movement, the finite changes that are all that are needed to turn a great flight into an immense one. As the aircraft climbs at 4:50, the music climbs with it, and so does both my heart and my expectations, but the manoeuvre that this culminates in, is way way beyond anything I could have imagined in my wildest minds eye. Its..err..its..well, its absolutely awesome, and totally indescribable and I suggest to anyone that wants to see what I mean, just watch it man, its turtley something else dOOdz, it really is!

And WHAT a way to introduce the outro..which allows us to calmly work our way to the end of the track, mouth wide open, and mind numbed in all the best ways, at the absolute splendour we have just been part of. I must also add, that the scenery behind all that is going on is just awe inspiring, and even if we cannot actually fly, we can still climb to the peaks shown throughout Brunos luxurious ocular creation, and I would not be surprised that if we did climb to those very peaks, that we would hear this tune playing in our hearts, our minds and our very souls.

My only criticism is that you have created such a pinnacle in this latest video of yours Bruno, that my Lord, it is going to be so hard for you to better, but knowing you as well as I do, I also know that this will happen.

I am fully impressed.. huge congratulations and any number of pats on the back my Brother, you really have excelled yourself.

Love to You and your Angels Always
