Summary: Sarah is amazing but the DVD.....
Comment: Sarah is superb! She sings with her soul in way that touch you specially. Regarding the DVD production...is a trash! The sound is horrible...i have to turn up the volume to MAX to have a proper sound and when i switch to 5.1 the voice comes from the rear speakers. It's a pity...this DVD deserves ''eagels hell freezes over - quality sound''
Image Quality is Below avarage. Besides that, 4:3 format.
Despite all that, I Still like it.

Summary: Sarah McLachlan...An Electric Wonder
Comment: First, I must say that I love Sarah McLachlan; she is my favorite artist...period. This live concert is well worth the money, and I cannot praise it enough. The sound quality is good, the editing is good,the other band members are featured, and it is a DVD that will stay among your favorites. Sarah is electric, her songs are timeless, and she sings with unsurpassable, transcendent beauty and longing. From the first time I heard Sarah, I knew that she was touched by something greater, and this is evident in this DVD. If you have not yet figured what all of the fuss is about this woman, buy this DVD and you will no doubt be a changed person. I recommend this DVD a thousand times over.

Summary: Sarah's Sultry Voice Is Intoxicating
Comment: The music in Mirrorball is fantastic. The audio quality is very high and the Sarah McLachlan's voice is wonderful. The band is very tight and seems to seriously enjoy the performance. The guitarists in particular, really shine.
The production quality is very good though cinematography is kept very simple. The overall stage presence is elegant and clean with nice, and generally subdued lighting.
Sarah McLachlan sticks to the music in this concert providing minimal interaction with the audience. Those few moments of dialogue are interesting and light with commentary on the particular piece she is prepared to perform. The dialogue is pointed and serious where it matters the most and light, even humorous when she can afford to be.
The extras on this DVD are fine. As a person who was only as familiar as radio playprior to the purchase, the interview with Sarah was very interesting. I am extremely happy with this performance and know it will find a regular place in my rotation of concert DVDs.
This is a concert that I can listen to repeatedly without loss of interest and I even expect to find an ever increasing appreciation for McLachlan's artistry.

This video companion to the Canadian singer-songwriter's triumphant live album confirms in sight what that recording advanced in sound--Sarah McLachlan and her fine, flexible stage band have evolved into a superb live performing unit, breathing added fire and nuance into McLachlan songs that were already stunning in their original studio versions. Always a strong, charismatic singer, McLachlan now conjures a rare balance of delicacy and power, measured here in performances of signature songs that add a new, more muscular edge matching her band's rock firepower. Thus, "Possession" expands beyond its already sensual promise to touch on truly erotic abandon, while "Building a Mystery" focuses its portrait of a narcissistic poseur with a harder edge and a newly amended, R-rated lyric that's entirely appropriate. Shot on McLachlan's 1998 headlining tour, the concert captures her in a more theatrical and frankly glamorous (if slightly funky) vein than her fabled Lilith Fair shows: in her floor-length blue gown, sparkling blue mascara, and bare feet, she evokes a more demure, Gen-X cousin to Cabaret's Sally Bowles. With 23 featured songs, Mirrorball on video adds 9 tracks not heard on the CD. The audio mixing is generally excellent, especially on the DVD version, which provides some hall ambience but retains a front-array, proscenium placement to instruments. Shot on film, rather than videotape, the concert preserves the stunning, subtle lighting effects of McLachlan's touring production, albeit at slight visual sacrifice in lower-light segments in which the resolution is grainier. --Sam Sutherland
