| Hi everyone,
We have heard your persistent calls for a global release of the Vienna concert, and are pleased to announce a global release for Sarah's PBS special, "Symphony — Live in Vienna". Dates are as follows: Japan and South East Asia - Feb 18 China - TBC Rest Of World - March 10 The package features Sarah's landmark performance at Vienna’s magnificent Stephansdome Cathedral on January 16th, 2008, in both audio and visual formats. The Symphony — Live in Vienna television special debuted on PBS in March 2008 during the network’s spring pledge drive and aired throughout the month. Sarah chose one of Europe’s most majestic settings for this milestone concert event. Consecrated in 1147, Stephansdom Cathedral is renowned for its awe-inspiring Gothic architecture, which, along with the production’s lavish light show, lends a dramatic and mystical feel to the musical proceedings, which were recorded in 5.1 Surround Sound. “It’s a very special place,” Sarah says of the cathedral. “There’s a dark romanticism and fairy-tale feeling within it. When you walk in, it envelops you. It’s large, but at the same time you feel very at home there and quite cozy. I wanted an architectural setting that suggested faith. I think of all the cathedrals in the world, this is one of my favorites, which is why it was important to me to perform this concert there.” Backed by a live rock band and a full orchestra, Sarah delivers passionate performances of songs from her 2008 chart-topping album, Symphony, as well as such fan favorites as “Phantom of the Opera,” “Time to Say Goodbye,” and “Ave Maria.” Brightman also welcomes several special guests for duets, including Italian tenor Alessandro Safina, Argentinean countertenor Fernando Lima, and British singer, Chris Thompson (of Mannfred Mann’s Earth Band). The package will be sold as a stand-alone CD, as well as bundled in a CD/DVD format. The latter features more than 45 minutes of bonus material, including interview commentary by Brightman, an eight-page glossy color booklet, and an exclusive bonus audio track, “Vide Cor Meum.” The track-listing is as follows: Pie Jesu / Fleurs du Mal / Symphony / Sanvean / Canto Della Terra (Duet with Alessandro Safina) / Sarai Qui (Duet with Alessandro Safina) / Attesa / I Will Be With You (Where the Lost Ones Go) (Duet with Chris Thompson) / Storia D’amore / Pasión (Duet with Fernando Lima) / Running / Let It Rain / The Phantom of the Opera (Duet with Chris Thompson) / Time to Say Goodbye / Ave Maria CD Extra: “Vide Cor Meum” DVD Extras: The Production – Interview with Sarah Brightman The Songs – Interview with Sarah Brightman The Location – Interview with Father Anthony Faber and Historian Elisabeth Lloyd-Davis Photo Gallery Note: Dates and packaging details are subject to change.
