There are errors on the printed credits:
- Brynja Guðmundsdóttir is credited for both tuba and soprano vocals (DVD1-17 to DVD1-21), but she only played the tuba. The soprano vocalist that is missing is Hugrún Hólmgeirsdóttir; the credits are written correctly at the end of the Reykjavik concert of the DVD (Hugrún appears as Hugrún R. Hólmgeirsdóttir).
- Video director credits for track DVD2-2 & DVD2-3 are incorrect. They appear as The competition winners Fred & Annabelle and Michel Gondry respectively. Entered correctly here.
