Summary: Sarah Brightman in Concert
Review: I first heard Sarah Brightman in the duet with Andrea Bocelli/ Time to say Goodbye. Her voice is a gift truly sent from God. This performance is completely captivating and I would recommend this video to any and everyone. As a big Springsteen fan as well as Geroge Strait I have added another dimension into my musical favorties. I look forward to seeing the Eden video very soon.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Sarah Brightman in Concert, Royal Albert Hall, 1998
Review: I am a relative newcomer to the Sarah Brightman faithful, my first real eperience with the Angel was "One Night in Eden". That concert/video/DVD has set a standard that will be extremely difficult to match.

"Sarah Brighman in Concert" preceeded "Eden" by at least a year, however I have just recently purchased the video. "In Concert" is not "Eden", it gets off to a rather slow start, but it has a dynamite finish.

I am now scouring the net attemptiing to find any other Sarah Brightman videos.

Summary: A World Class Diva for the 21st Century
Review: Hopefully, intelligent Amazon shoppers will disregard diabolical tomsheer's blatant promotion of another product in a forum where it is inappropriate. Did he miss medication, perhaps? This concert was fantastic and Sarah Brightman has one of the most outstanding, flexible, and breathtaking voices to be experienced live or otherwise. Her talent is truly remarkable in its crossover ability. She is a rare combination of talent, beauty, and poise that has no rival. This is all self-evident in this concert and is a must-have for any Sarah Brightman fan and for the newcomer as well.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Skip this, buy recommendation below
Review: Sarah is not a world class singer in the class of Maria Callas, Victoria de los Angeles, Renata Scotto, Helga Dernesch, Dame Kiri Te Kanawa, Elizabeth Schwarzkopf, Mirella Freni, Madi Mespli, and others you can hear on "The Best Opera Album in the World, Ever" (EMI/Virgin #42203, double CD). This latter double CD will make you cry, it is so beautiful, and this from someone who never liked opera. I listen to it only about once a week, so I won't get tired of it, and after several months it still grabs my by the throat and makes tears run down my face. In 40 years of listening to rock and pop, I have never experienced this before. Buy it! Skip this video by Brightman. I hear she has done other good videos, but this is not one of them.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This Is The First Sarah Brightman Video I Bought...
Review: ...and perhaps great fun. It features a great array of songs I never knew. The Phantom of the Opera songs were great, the special effects were great, perhaps the whole concert was great. Especially the duet with that sexy Andrea Bocelli guy whom I was totally "foaming at the mouth" for. My suggestion: Get it as soon as possible!

Summary: Sarah Brightman In Concert
Review: Wonderful, talented, beautiful, loving Sarah Brightman deserves better than this video has to offer. While the music and Sarah are overwhelming in beauty, the POOR QUALITY OF THE VIDEO REPRODUCTION is unforgivable. All through the concert the static sounds diminish greatly the enjoyment of music. The static distracts and ruins the moment. During all events of applause the skips in sound are horrible. It sounds as if the microphone was being turned off and on all during applause. It prevents one from even enjoying the applause given to the artists. In the last song with Andrea Bocelli the skips in sound and static was at its worst. I regret paying the price for this video. I respect Sarah far too much to allow this junky video on the market. Edsol Crowder

Summary: For all Sarah fans.
Review: Like "One Night in Eden" it is great. Her performance with Bocelli will make you a fan of his also. NO negatives.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not bad but....
Review: Don't get me wrong, I very much enjoy Sarah Brightman and her beautiful voice and I have been a fan for almost 5 years now. If you close your eyes, this video can be a real treat! What I'm trying to say is, she's not quite easy on the eyes. Some find it enchanting or charming when she gets that wide-eyed, tranced look while she's singing but it's a tad too dramatic for me whether it's natural or not. She is in great voice here though and this video contains many of her selections from her CD "Timeless", or "Time to Say Goodbye", which established her name in the United States. In a nutshell, this video has beautiful music and a beautiful voice with not quite so beautiful visuals, but it's still a treat for many fans.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The most beautiful music you will ever hear.
Review: When you watch this video you get the impression that Sarah goes into a bit of a trance before singing and what comes out is so unimaginably beautiful that you would think the Holy Spirit had litterally taken over her mind and body to produce what may very well be the most beautiful music you will ever have the pleasure of listening to.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This is a great show!
Review: I've seen this concert on the pbs stations here in the usa, and when i first saw it the next day i ran out and found everything of her cds and videos that i could, i bought everything. now i've seen her live in concert in 1999 and she can sing so pure like an angel . now i have all of my friends on her music no one can stop playing her music , the best sone on this video is Music Of The Night, and i have found my wedding song. no one can sing it like sarah or even Michael Crawford, so fans out there get this video and the One Night In Eden.
