Jo and I approached Paul Gosling to create an extra video for the Live in Liverpool DVD package. He had already filmed and directed the wonderful 'Love Song to a Vampire' video. Once again, Paul went for it. The 'Corycian Fire' video was partly filmed on location in Greece, but it also involved dancers in the UK who enjoyed choreographing for it so much that they decided to do their own version for stage.

Below are two links to films Paul made of the stage dance routine. The first is a slow-mo film from the rehearsal to the beautiful music "Unspoken", composed by Ben Fenner and Les Bennett. The second video is the dance performed on stage as part of the Cultural Exchanges festival for my talk and Q&A at de Montfort University in Leicester. I enjoyed their imaginative interpretation of the song.
