Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: A great sampling of Webber's music Comment: Although I usually prefer classical music or pre-1950s popular music, I do enjoy the music of Andrew Lloyd Webber. This is a very good sampling from his musicals. My only complaint is that some of the singing is not as good as it should be. Except for the opening number which was poorly sung, it sounded OK until I heard Sarah Brightman and Kiri Te Kanawa towards the end of the concert. Then I realized how much better this concert would have been if it had all been sung by singers of their skills. Customer Rating: Summary: Andrew Lloyd Webber- The Royal Albert Hall Celebration Comment: The Andrew Lloyd Webber- The Royal Albert Hall Celebration was just wonderful. I highly recommend this if you did not get to see some of these performers on Broadway. The music and performers are just great and you will be so entertained you will think you are there at Albert Hall. Customer Rating: Summary: Be Prepared!!! Comment: I bought this DVD in April to watch with my parents when I came to visit on break from college. We're all Andrew Lloyd Webber fans but had never seen this concert before, so I knew we'd enjoy it. I was prepared to love the DVD; I was not prepared to spend $300 in the 2.5 months following the purchase of the DVD buying up all the Michael Ball items I could get my hands on--including joining his fan club. He steals the show, and you absolutely fall in love with him from his first song. Words cannot describe...so I will not even try. As for the other performances, Elaine Paige was amazing, of course. Antonio's Evita performances were very enjoyable but found him lacking in Phantom. Tina Arena gives a powerful performance, and Donny and Glenn were better than I expected. Outside of Memory and Ball's performances, my favorite has to be "No Matter What" by Boyzone. They give boy bands a good name. This DVD will be watched and re-watched and become a household favorite but be prepared to become hopelessly devoted to Michael Ball. Customer Rating: Summary: A brilliant celebration Comment: This is what I call A REAL EXPERIENCE! By far, it's the most brilliant celebration on the work of a musician I've ever seen. If you look for highlights, all the pieces are. There's not even one moment that you may say, "well, this was better than the previous one". Absolutely all the singing and the artists are from another world. You'll get goose bumps with Glenn Close in SUNSET BOULEVARD, and with Michael Ball - and the whole cast - singing LOVE CHANGES EVERYTHING. It's an unforgetable show you'll want to see over and over again. Fascinating from the first image to the very last. Don't miss the chance to live a real experience! Customer Rating: Summary: Fabulous renditions of some old and new favorties. Comment: Though not all the songs were performed by the original performers, these were wonderful live rendtions by extremely talented and well known individuals such as Michael Ball, Sara Brightman, Antonio Banderas, and Donnie Osmond among the other greats. Boyzone became one of my favorite unknowns. I have loved this special since it previwed on PBS and see this as a wonderful addition to my DVD collection.
