On the 19th of October, 2002, Sara K. performed, together with Chris Jones at the ARTmax in Braunschweig, Germany. The concert was captured both on video and on (digital) tape for the Bowers & Wilkins Nautilustour-DVD. The live atmosphere of this performance (an additional concert especially organized by B&W) comes across both aurally and visually amazingly well.
"Recording a live DVD is truly an adventure, with many potential surprises – the artist’s performance, audience reaction, acoustic environment, sound technology and the interaction of all these parameters. After only a few moments, it was clear that Sara K. and Chris Jones were delivering one of their finest performances ever and that the audience was completely under their spell. The hall’s abundance of glass and stone surfaces produced a bright and transparent sound, with an overtone-rich room response and a 2-second natural reverb. Consequently, there was no artificial reverb added during mixing. The acoustic authenticity of this recording is mainly thanks to four B & W Nautilus 801 loudspeakers, driven by four Classé CA-401 power amplifiers, delivering a breathtakingly uncoloured sound to the audience. Thanks to the 801’s remarkable radial dispersion, the musicians were able to hear themselves perfectly, without any need for additional monitoring. This phenomena enabled a more intense dynamic interplay between the musicians on stage and furthermore eliminated the problem of sound colouration caused by monitor speakers 'bleeding' over the vocal microphones. The final result is a recording without compression or additional EQ-ing, with remarkable dynamics and an exceptionally authentic sound. " - Gunter Pauler
"Sound wise the DVD is very, very good, making it a real happening and feeling as if you were there. Sound wise the DVD got a 10 out of 10. This DVD is one of the best, a must have for everybody who likes Sara K. and for everybody interested in guitar-music, strong woman vocals or everybody interested in audiophile recordings.“ - Patrick van den Bergh, www.dvdzine.nl 7/2003
