La ceremonia de apertura de los Juegos Olímpicos, donde pudimos ver a Oldfield tras muchos años encima de un escenario, es un evento que sigue dando de qué hablar unos meses después.
En éste caso, ya anunciamos hace semanas que se estaba preparando un bluray con la ceremonia de apertura de los JJ.OO. y finalmente tenemos ya todos los datos al respecto.
Se pone a la venta un boxset de 5 Blurays con la ceremonia de apertura, de clausura, y los mejores momentos de las olimpiadas, el próximo 29 de octubre de éste año.
Al parecer tendremos una visión del director de la ceremonia (Danny Boyle), a parte de comentarios de audio del mismo. No sabremos si en ésta nueva versión podremos ver más a Oldfield de lo que vimos en las retransmisiones de TV.
En el box, en amazon nos explican su contenido:
