Down from the Mountain (The "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" Concert) Overview
On May 24, 2000, the historic Ryman Auditorium was booked to offer Nashvillians an evening of sublime beauty. Label executives and soundtrack producers so loved the music of O Brother, Where Art Thou? that they brought it to life as a benefit concert for the Country Music Hall of Fame. Filmmakers Joel and Ethan Coen loved it so much that they hired famed documentary filmmaker D.A. Pennebaker to record the show for posterity. The concert that unfolded that night was one of the greatest musical moments in the annals of Music City. Performers: John Hartford, Alison Krauss, Emmylou Harris, Gillian Welch, Chris Thomas King, The Cox Family, Fairfield Four, Union Station, Colin Linden, The Nashville Bluegrass Band, The Peasall Sisters, Ralph Stanley, David Rawlings, The Whites. 98 minutes.
Down from the Mountain (The "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" Concert) Specifications
If you love the O Brother, Where Art Thou? soundtrack, D.A. Pennebaker, Chris Hegedus, and Nick Doob's exhilarating concert film Down from the Mountain will be sheer heaven. And if you're new to bluegrass and "old-time mountain-style" music, the performances (also on CD) will be a revelation. John Hartford, Emmylou Harris, Alison Krauss, Gillian Welch, the Cox family, the venerable Ralph Stanley, and other traditional and alt-country artists who contributed the music to the Coen brothers' spaced odyssey gathered onstage in May 2000 at Nashville's Ryman Auditorium to benefit the Country Music Hall of Fame. Interviews and rehearsal footage set the stage for this stupendous concert, highlights of which include "(Didn't Leave) Nobody but the Baby" by the sirens Harris, Welch, and Krauss; the Coxes' "(Will There Be) Any Stars in My Crown"; and Stanley's haunting "O Death." As one performer recommends, "Just ease in, sit down, and listen." It could be your salvation. --Donald Liebenson

Customer Reviews
This double-DVD contains almost 3 hours of concert footage and witnesses Opeth Death Metal lead in the halls of culture, "are linked to the often hilarious Mikael Åkerfeldt. The first set is a complete performance of" Blackwater Park "album, which many consider the masterpiece of the band. The second movement brings fans over the years and the development of Opeth, when the band plays a song from each of their albums in chronological order. Akerfeldt remains calm in a targeted mannerthe sentence, despite the audience asked him to say something. I think it's because they do not want to interrupt the flow of the songs. In the second set, but he is much more talkative and tells you a lot of anecdotes and jokes between songs, much more fun Death Metal singer I've ever seen. But everything on the one hand is the strong performance of the band, with all the expertise you expect. It is an unfortunate technical problem technical in "The Lotus Eater"Newcomer of the guitar Fredrik Akesson, but the band keeps the public to be solved, and things. All in all, this DVD is a must have for fans of Opeth worldwide.
