That's terrific. I'm amazed at what you're able to do with a single camera setup at live events... it feels like at least a three camera shoot to my amateur eyes.
One advantage to a polyrythmic musical form is that, even when it is synced it doesn't look like it is. I taped two long segments from the back of the hall (the ambient volume was an issue--anything closer was clipped and unusable), and then wandered the stage for the rest of the performance (they hired me, I had permission). I synced those to the beat so that it looked OK enough. And I cut short so that you wouldn't have time to look too hard.

Very Cool! I love all of the different camera angles.

Looks very nice. How did you capture the sound exactly?

A Sennheiser MKE 400 mike on the hot shoe.
