Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I had known about this DVD for some time. I had resisted buying it for two reasons. One reason was the lack of 5.1 sound. The other was that I expected a two hour concert would have some slow parts.
Well I finally caved in and bought it, largely because of the great reviews it received here.
To my surprise, I did not feel there was any lull in the concert. In fact, it moves along at a very nice pace.
I was particularly impressed with how Gloria turned up the tempo in the last half hour at the point most of us would have been exhausted.
My favorite part was her chit chat with the guy in row two who brought the binoculars.
As I was watching the concert I started thinking, "Great concert, too bad there is no 5.1". In a moment of wishful thinking I pressed the sound button on my DVD remote and toggled on 5.1 sound! I double checked the DVD case--no spec about there being any 5.1 but my disk (purchased March 2004) does have it. To activate the 5.1 you can press the menu button and then configure the audio options or can just toggle the sound button on the DVD remote.
How is the 5.1 sound? To be truthful, it is better than the 2.0 sound but not a whole lot better. It is certainly not as good as the 5.1 mix on her Atlantis or Que Siga La Tradicion DVDs. However I'm still very pleased to have it.
