A review I found about this dvd:

The Pat Metheny Group expands on its masterpiece with this 
live performance. Throughout the group's 27 year existence, 
these musicians have consistently redefined what a contemporary 
jazz ensemble can be, and who they are as a band, each album 
containing something of immense value. This DVD captures the 
full-length version of Metheny's/Mayes' composition 'The Way Up', 
as performed live in Korea. The piece has achieved greater 
depth and maturity since the release of the studio album in 
January 2005; in fact, the live performance makes clear just 
how melodic the piece is as a whole and how suited it is to 
improvisation. Another difference from the studio version 
that makes this DVD worthwhile is the greater fidelity with 
which the multiple orchestrations have been carried over in 
real time by trumpeter/vocalist Cuong Vu, harmonica ace 
Gregoire Maret and PMG alumnus (replacing Richard Bona) 
Nando Lauria on miscellaneous instruments.
