Here are "The Royal Scots Dragoon Guards" playing "Amazing Grace" during the screening of the last reel on the Ernemann 2 projector.

That is wonderful, Graham!

There is a ski resort in lower Upstate New York that decided they needed to make some money during the three seasons the snow is gone. One of the things they've done is hold ethnic festivals. Sunday Morning of the Celtic Festival several hundred pipers come down the mountain playing Amazing Grace!

I've been to the Bavarian Alps festival a couple of times. I'll have to say it's not very memorable! All I can tell you for sure is how good that first bier always is...it becomes kind of fuzzy after that!

Very nice Graham. The film is well worth seeing with Ioan Gruffudd and Ciaran Hands. Hope you last as long as your projector!!
