Synopsis: Dream With Me in Concert (DVD)
Product Description
Jackie Evancho's Dream With Me In Concert is the perfect video companion to her chart-topping album, Dream With Me, which was produced by the legendary David Foster.
David Foster has worked with the biggest names in music, including Beyoncé, Prince, Josh Groban and Celine Dion, but he admits that Jackie's talent astonished him. "Her natural ability and the depth of her understanding of the musical process left me speechless," he says. Foster has mentored Jackie and appears on Dream With Me In Concert as the show's host.
The concert was recorded inside and on the grounds of the John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art in Sarasota, Florida, which includes the stunning mansion Ca' d'Zan, known as the last of the Gilded Age mansions built in America. Ringling was the impresario behind the iconic Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey circus. "This is a big, beautiful place," said Jackie after she toured the grounds. "My favorite part is the Peter Paul Rubens [art] gallery," where she performed the haunting song "Dark Waltz" accompanied only by Foster on piano and Conrad Tao on violin -- and surrounded by four of Rubens' largest, and most striking, canvases.
The DVD features two songs ( Mi Mancherai and To Believe ) that were filmed during the live concert but not included in the PBS show. Bonus features include an interview with Jackie and David Foster as well as a photo gallery.
Also available as a CD/DVD combo pack.

| 316 of 324 people found the following review helpful  Why you should--or should not--buy this DVD, By Ehkzu (Palo Alto, CA United States) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Dream With Me in Concert (DVD) (DVD) Okay, here's another 5-star review, joining what will soon be hundreds of five-star reviews for this DVD. But I realize that even if a thousand reviewers give this DVD five stars, that's no guarantee that you will love it. So in this review I'd like to help you decide whether this DVD is for you--or not.It's an interesting question because while Ms. Evancho's appeal reaches fans of many musical genres, that's also true for those who won't enjoy this DVD. Judging from contributors to many music forums, fans of Classical Crossover are most likely to appreciate this DVD. Classical Crossover is music drawn from many sources--popular, musical theater, folk, classical, opera--performed in a classical manner. People who mostly like pop music sometimes mistake this for singing operatically, but opera singers generally sing without a mic and learn to project their voices over a pit orchestra to fill an auditorium. CC singers don't do this, even when they sing opera...

Nearly everyone has seen clips of her amazing performances in last year's America's Got Talent competition, which she inexplicably lost to country/soul singer Michael Grimm. But now you can enjoy an entire program of live songs from her first full-length album, "Dream with Me."Assisted by her producer, arranger, and pianist, David Foster, and accompanied by orchestra and chorus, Jackie sings 15 songs from a variety of genres: opera, musical theater, and film as well as popular and sacred pieces. It's clear she feels the music deeply, and she communicates it powerfully, demonstrating flawless diction and phrasing, an astoundingly pure tone, and pitch-perfect vibrato. A couple of the songs are performed in intimate chamber settings, and one, "Somewhere," is sung as a duet with a 1985 video by Barbra Streisand...

I've already purchased one from my local PBS station, and am ordering multiple copies of this now here from Amazon. These will make exquisite Christmas gifts. You will treasure this DVD - guaranteed! There is just no way to describe how wonderful this precious young girl is. She is the personification of beauty - vocally, physically, and spiritually. David Foster has done a great job of fostering (pardon the pun) her talent, and they'll be teaming up again in December for a big concert in Vegas. This DVD is a must-have for anyone familiar with this angel and I'm sure will be a classic. |
