Video shot simultaneously to the audio for the "Remember to Love" commemorative concert for September 11 is available for viewing at http//tinyurl.com/3qggh4p. Although both the audio recording and the video seem to have abbreviated but differently the performance of the Brahms "Ein Deutsches Requiem," either is a good way to experience or reexperience this beautiful concert.
