Stage performer (Cats, Phantom of the Opera) and singer Sarah Brightman wowed audiences with this concert of her 2000 album La Luna, which debuted at number one on the classical crossover chart. Using theatrical sets and moody lighting, Brightman creates a dramatic atmosphere that perfectly complements her repertoire. The La Luna concert features Brightman's renditions of such favorites as "Scarborough Fair," "Whiter Shade of Pale," and "Music of the Night" (from Phantom), while lending more ethereal vocals to the inspiring "La Luna," "Siren," and "Deliver Me." ~ Jessica Frost, Rovi

This filmed stage production of Victor/Victoria came to be through the collaboration of director Blake Edwards and his wife, singer and actress Julie Andrews. Andrews reprises her role as a female pretending to be a male who is impersonating a female, while Edwards once again directs. As with the 1982 film and 1996 Broadway productions of Victor/Victoria, Andrews' character rises through the entertainment circuit by means of her unique gimmick, leaving a Chicago gangster and the rest of her audience thoroughly confused about her true sexuality and its implications. Filmed shortly before her vocal chords were unfortunately injured, this production of Victor/Victoria marks the last musical performance by Andrews prior to the damage incurred to her singing voice after undergoing subsequent surgery. ~ Tracie Cooper, Rovi
