Editorial Reviews:

Performed on a specially constructed floating stage in Lake Las Vegas, a resort community 20 miles south of Las Vegas, this historic performance captures Andrea Bocelli's first ever pop concert. Under the Desert Sky, which co-stars TonyÂ® winner Heather Headley (Elton John's Aida), represents a new era for the Tuscan-born singer. Spanish guitars flourish, traditional Latin percussion seductively keeps the tempo, accordions and harmonicas provide haunting ambience. Highlights include "Somos Novios" - Perry Como had a hit with it as "It's Impossible" - and "The Prayer," a duet with Heather Headley, David Foster and Carole Bayer Sager's OscarÂ® nominated song from Quest for Camelot. Capping the program is a new song, "Because We Believe," by David Foster with lyrics by Andrea Bocelli and Amy Foster Gillies which was written for and introduced at the 2006 Torino Winter Olympics.

Summary: Great Concert

Customer Rating:

Summary: Good concert
Comment: I like Andrea Bocelli, he's got a great voice. But some of the songs in this concert are too flat, I didn't like half of the songs in this concert. The new DVD Vivere is much better!

Summary: Simply beautiful.
Comment: I dont have any other way to express it. Sublime. Not only the selection of songs is amazing, but there is an atmosphere that I just cant remember having felt in any other concert. All this comes from somebody who, even recognizing Andrea is among the top singers in the world, is not a big fan.

The orchestra is magnificent to say the least.

Listening to DVD in DTS is an out of the world experience. Everybody should have a copy.

Customer Rating:

Summary: One of the greatest gifts I ever received
Comment: Listening to Bocelli sing great songs previously performed by other great singers was a pleasurable addition to a wonderful musical concert. There is no need to compare his performance with others, it's simply a different experience of great ageless songs like: can't help falling in love, September Morn, Somos Novios,.....
The most pleasant surprise to me, was hearing Bocelli sing Les Feuilles Mortes in French; one of my favorite childhood songs. I just wish that the great voice who accompanied him was at least credited on the cover.

All in all, a great concert that is worth replaying and treasuring on cold Friday nights.
