The only CON about the DVD is they did not INCLUDE ENGLISH SUBTITLES for people like me who do not speak French, but don't let that detour you from checking out the DVD. The music is 100% live and spans from Rock N' Roll, to a few ballads and blues songs.

A must have for any music and Dion fan!

Wonderful concert.Thank you Amazon for this DVD.If we have DVD with upscaling 1080p, picture is wonderful..And of cours if you want to see this DVD on blue ray,....,No comment!Thank you for all Amazon!:)

Hello! :) This DVD is fantastic! It features a diverse set of music, and has a remarkable "earthiness" to it. After viewing this, one can see the connection between the Cajun (Acadian) and Quebecois cultures and musical genres. It's absolutely charming! It seems that it could be a fun and useful tool to help learn French, if one were already studying it in a more formal setting. I saw an interview (in English) of Celine Dion, and she's from a huge family from a small town/city in Quebec, and she seems like such a sincere, salt-of-the-Earth sweetie, that I couldn't help but adore her. The men featured have deep, sultry voices that seemed to increase my fertility minute by minute (... little joke... or is it?... haha). All in all, an amazing concert that showcases the Quebecois, their culture, and Quebec in general. Highly enjoyable! :)

Enjoyed being able to see the concert. Includes several hard-to-find acts in the United States.

This is one great concert and should be a must for anyone into French Canadian artists. Celine is great and she shares the stage with so many talented artists it's difficult to pick out highlights. Every perfprmance is top notch but especially moving for me was Zachary Richard's gut wrenching rendition of "La Promesse Cassee". Jean Pierre Ferland had the audience cheering like mad and when Ginette Reno appears it's enough to knock your socks off. These performances do not detract from Celine's performances. it is a sign of a great artist that she is willing to share the stage with so many well known performers and not be overshadowed by them or be afraid of anyone stealing the spotlight. The spotlight here is on great performances and everyone delivers their best. As soon as the DVD was over I went back to watch some of them again. A truly great accomplishment.

Can't go wrong with Dion. I enjoy so much of her "All the Way" and her recent Las Vegas concerts. Love the music and the staging, and of course what she wears. A great singer and performer.

This is an AWESOME DVD - Celine is so talented!
It's really nice to see the many Québec artists come together and perform for this event. Every time I watch it, I feel a great deal of emotions and energy. I strongly recommend this DVD! C'est vraiment beau de voir d'excellents artists se rassembler pour cet événement! Je ne peut pas faire autrement qu'être de bonne humeur quand j'écoute de la bonne musique canadienne française!

This concert is INCREDIBLE, and the footage is superb. The quality is amazing, and I love the behind the scenes bits. The mix of other great artists with Celine Dion is just perfect. One of her best concert DVDs ever released.

Shipping on time with good music DVD, it better if we have blue ray version.

Excellent show! All the musicians who performed here are spectacular. I can't ever get enough of Celine and her behind the scenes footage. She's phenomenal. Not many artists do this.
