Customer Reviews of Sarah Brightman In Concert

Sarah Brightman Marries Classical with Pop
I FINALLY BOUGHT THE DVD! It is worth having, because my VHS is glowing, and has finally begun to wear out. I added the DVD to my collection after debating whether or not I should really get it. Now I have it, and it is fine. The sound and picture is fine. The instrumental intro with short personal clips of Sarah is a nice touch. All the chamelionic looks are gorgeous. I don't have much to say about this DVD, other than the exquisite song selection, the appreciative audience and the well demanded encores. I think out of all three Brightman DVDs (One Night in Eden, La Luna, and Sarah Brightman in concert), the audience here appreciates her the most.

I have grown to like "Tu Quieres Volver" more, now that I've seen it many times live, and have seen it on the DVD. The song right away, broke the classical first half of the show. It's nice to hear more rarely sung songs from Brightman like "Chanson Espagnol", Solveig's song", "I feel pretty" and "Tonight". I have never heard Sarah sing these 4 songs before hearing/watching them on my DVD/VHS.

The concert is made up of a decent time of approx. 73 minutes, considering some songs were a bit short, and some were long.
My copy has the photo taken from the box cover on it. The color is a bit off, but it's not bad. The item is good for collectors, classical music buffs, and diehard Brightman fans. I am all three. :)

Sarah is a cherubic goddess in first concert video
Sarah Brightman's first concert video, performed live at the Royal Albert Hall and recorded in September 1997, contains material taken from Time To Say Goodbye, The Andrew Lloyd Webber Collection, and songs not on any other album. Hearing the latter material is the real treat, and makes me wish a studio rendition would be put out on a future album. The opening number, "Bailero," would later appear on her Eden album.

In particular is her rendition of the Spanish-tinged "Chanson Espagnol" and Grieg's "Solveig's Song." In the latter song, she covers her face with her hands, removes them, and sings, finishing the song with the covering gesture.

Ever since hearing "O Mio Babbino Caro" on Classics, I've really come to enjoy this song more than ever since hearing it on Time To Say Goodbye. And seeing her perform "Tu Quieres Volver" and "Who Wants To Live Forever" alone is worth the video.

No, she does not bow out after "Music Of The Night." She does an encore by dragging out Andrea Bocelli, and singing...um.. oh yeah, "Time To Say Goodbye." She concludes with "Don't Cry For Me Argentina" from Evita.

The concert is divided in three sections, the first set of songs being the more operatic, up to the medley, and the second set utilizing her pop vocal, from "Tu Quieres Volver" to "Whistle Down The Wind," by which time her voice is all rested up and ready to go on the Phantom songs and the encore. One comment on "Music Of The Night." What a nerve ALW had in giving that song to the phantom! It's Sarah's by right and she proves it too!

Sarah's face is a little moon-faced here, and that aspect of her lends to her beauty. It gives her face more articulation, especially when her eyes bulge round whenever she hits a high note. She reminds me of a very cute hootie owl. And I am blown away by that sweet smile of hers.

Sarah is easily a supernova compared to her guest performers, even ex-husband Andrew Lloyd Webber, who plays piano as she sings "Whistle Down The Wind." Young choirboy Adam Clarke, who joins her on "Pie Jesu," looks very bashful, but that's understandable, as he is no doubt overwhelmed at performing on stage live and alongside a goddess. And as for poor Andrea Bocelli, well, need I say more? At least someone made sure his tie was straight.

Seeing Sarah sing instead of hearing her merely sing her on five-inch silver disc is a triple treat, of which there are two other servings: the Eden and La Luna concert videos. Stay tuned!
