    Hmm. They seem to be still available. However, one slightly confusing point is that of the 23 streams, only 22 are, in fact, videos (with the audio aspect at 128 kbps aac). The 23rd (Joanna Ward) is audio-only, at 320 kbps aac

      Some 10 years earlier, Tectonics, March 2012 was in Reykjavik. 24-bit/48kHz recordings of several of the concerts were made available online. I downloaded them and compiled an audio DVD of them, using Audio DVD Creator. Yesterday I happened across that DVD, made a disc image of it on a hard drive and burned a duplicate, into the bargain. Today I am very much enjoying listening to several items from it, including Cage's Concerto for Prepared Piano and Small Orchestra, Thirteen, and Improvisation III, plus Feldman's Palais de Mari and Frank Denyer's The Colours of Jellyfish t Performers included John Tilbury (who regards that performance of Palais de Mari as the best he has ever given of it), the Iceland Symphony Orchestra and Ilan Volkov. Excellent recordings with minimal sonic interventions from the audience. I am finishing off this session with the last item on the disc, a duo improvisation from John Tilbury and Oren Ambarchi. Still lots more, from the likes of the Icelandic composer Magnús Blöndal.
