5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Live Performance DVD!!, February 14, 2003

This review is from: Bryn Terfel: Live in Concert (DVD)

A common problem with opera and performing arts dvds is that the audio and video is not taken with the dvd format in mind. Recently, Deutsche Grammophon has began reissuing dvds from older performances, remixed in DTS and DD 5.1. However, this concert of Bryn Terfel is the first performance video done with the digital format in mind. The sound and video are superb and there are loads of additional features, including XFI which allows you to jump to interviews in between arias to get indepth answers about why Bryn chose that piece for the concert. Kudos to DG!

On to the actual concert: Bryn is simply at his best. I have seen him perform live three times and was impressed by his energy and ability to communicate with the audience. It is so amazing to see him perform some difficult pieces such as Wotan's Farewell and Falstaff's Honor monologue with such intensity and beautiful line. He sounds incredible and seems to keep getting better and better. The musical theater pieces for the second half of the program are well chosen and makes one wish he would take to Broadway in the near future. I highly recommend this DVD to anyone- from the casual opera fan to keen enthusiasts.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Concert by Terfel and Orchestra, June 26, 2003

This review is from: Bryn Terfel: Live in Concert (DVD)

I've seen Terfel several times and he always blows me away in person. He does so in this concert as well! The orchestra and conducting along with his singing just couldn't be improved upon. A perfectly wonderful concert. The Wagner was beautifully sung and Terfel makes it seem much easier than it is! However, his secret weapon is his ability to communicate, phrase and sing the Broadway show tunes. Each time he performs a selection he makes it new, fresh and his! I loved this DVD and highly recommend it to anyone who loves great music performed by highly trained musicians in a beautiful concert hall. This one is truly special!
