It's a very enjoyable performance.  The other performers on this show are also impressive. 
I'm particular impressed by the stamina and precision of all the players.  The music
is very active, and they're playing these rapid melodies over and over for minutes at a 
time.  Any harp player who can manage this stuff has the breathing thing down.

Fun.
