A Christmas Classic,

This review is from: Radio City Christmas Spectacular (DVD)
Every time I go to NYC for the holidays, I make a point to see this show. A fabulous New York City fix; a fabulous Christmas tradition. And they get to wrap it up in one of the most beautiful art deco buildings in the world. This was the 75th anniversary production. Most of the old favorite numbers were included and many spetacular new pieces (my favorite being the double decker bus ride through Manhattan). I was actually in the audience the night this was taped and I was very pleased to see considerably more footage of the show than was televised on network TV and, as I remember, in the correct order it appeared in the program. This DVD will go into the stack of my holiday memories to watch again and again. I

This review is from: Radio City Christmas Spectacular (DVD)
I'm a product of the Music Hall. I worked on and off their for years. It is really to bad that other stage spectaculars such as the Easter (Spring) Show or the other great stage shows that i know were video recorded but never released. It shocks me that they released this as the full production and not as shown with all the edited TV version last year. The production value of the Christmas Show is excellent and the sound is wonderful. My only objection is that they didn't record the music halls grand organs. I have no idea why you couldn't hear it during some of the numbers that i know from seeing the 2007 version live both grand organs were used.
Maybe if we press the Music Hall they will release other great stage spectaculars. I started seeing productions back in the late 50's till last years Christmas Show and the many shows i worked on during the 60's and 70's. This is a great purchase and if you have never seen a Radio City Music Hall Show, GET THIS ONE. You won't be disappointed.

This review is from: Radio City Christmas Spectacular (DVD)
From seniors to toddlers, this is an experience to be cherished. Filmed at the world-famous Radio City Music Hall - one of the greatest Art Deco buildings ever - the Christmas Spectacular is sure to please anyone that enjoys the holidays.
The Rockettes are superb and the mainstay of the performance. I saw the show way back in 1973 and have always retained the memory of that experience. This updated version is new and thrilling (the double-decker bus and virtual tour of NYC is fantastic), yet some of the original remains: * The Parade of the Wooden Soldiers is in the show since its conception in 1933; in my opinion it is one the greatest choreographed music pieces of all time * The Live Nativity is visually beautiful as ever The price of greeting cards has risen so high that I seriously considered not sending any this year. Along came this DVD...I've ordered several copies of this show to send to people this year in lieu of holiday cards. I usually look at a holiday card for about 30 seconds. This DVD is 90 minutes of entertainment that can be kept and enjoyed over and over again. I don't know about you, but I've never saved a holiday greeting card from year to year; however, if I received this for the holidays, I'd keep it and remember who sent it to me. And, let's face it, the show is just plain fun!
