I didn't catch it on video, but the second night of the 2 performances in Tokyo last spring was quite exceptional; and I "think" the silence did remain an entire minute without any disturbance. I was at both, and clearly the second night rendition was MUCH better than the first. Too bad for the first night goers, who only got to see that night.
i saw them in benaroya hall (an acoustically perfect classical music hall; interesting place to see lound music) in seattle and the slience in that concert was unbroken. I thought I slipped into a time warp, no one moved, or dared to breathe. The anticipation is almost erotic. Have they always done the silence? I saw them in Manchester on the same tour and I cant remember if theydid it.
