Customer Reviews of Andrea Bocelli - A Night in Tuscany

A STAR IS BORN!
If you long for the ancient sights of Tuscany and the sound of heavenly music, Andrea Bocelli will surely capture your heart with his riveting performance at the Piazza dei Cavalieri in Pisa, Italy. Joined by Sarah Brightman- the British star of Cats, Nuccia Focile, and Italian pop-artist Zucchero, the charismatic Bocelli brings a rare talent to his brilliant interpretation of operatic arias, pop songs, and favorite Neopolitan classics. I have shared A Night In Tuscany with many of my friends and family and all have been equally enthralled. While you're at it, be sure to pick up the CD, Romanza, which includes an Italian libretto.

Bocelli's eclectic mix of arias and ballads sure to please!
"A Night in Tuscany" is a treat for both the ear and the eye. While this delightfully long, 90-minute video is primarily devoted to an outdoor concert performance by blind tenor Andrea Bocelli and full orchestra in Pisa, the video also includes interludes showing Bocelli in everyday life -- at the local store, in the vineyards, at the seashore with his wife and son, and at home with his piano. Bocelli shares his feelings (in English) about both music and family during these narrated vignettes. He also shares the stage during the concert itself with soprano Nuccia Focile as well as popular singers Zucchero ("Miserere"), and Sarah Brightman ("Time to Say Goodbye"). If you are a Bocelli fan, this video is a must-have addition to your collection. If you're not a fan yet, this video will make you a true believer in Bocelli's remarkable talent.

Unfortunate
Mr. Bocelli was fine and I especially enjoyed his rendition of Nessum Dorma. I thought the interspaced vinettes are not particularly interesting and detracted somewhat from his performances. Ms. Brightman also seemed to have some slight pitch issues, but these I thought are very minor.

The reason why I rated this three stars isn't so much for the performances, which generally are very good. The problem is this dvd only uses Dolby 2.0 and it really does not do any justice to the Mr. Bocelli and his friend's vocal abilities nor the performances of the orchestra... it all sounds a bit flat.

I would recommend renting this first.
