HARMONIUM EN TOURNÉE

First of all, L'Heptade is my favorite album over everything I have ever heard, and since this live album is basically a live run-through of L'Heptade, it starts on a high level. The performance is great, but I think there is a weakness in instrumentalisation comparing this to the studio album, because they could not bring a whole orchestra on tour. An interesting thing about this recording is the changes made from the original music. Most of the material is faster, Le Corridor don't have the instrumental part and Le Premier Ciel is extended by 10 minutes of improvisations. In overall, this is a nice recording of a great performance of a magnificient album. Not a must have, but an interesting adition to a prog collection.
