Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I am crossing all fingers and toes in the hope that this amazingly talented young man will receive the recognition that he so deserves. Sometimes I Dream:Live In Concert was filmed in Thessaloniki, Greece at the beautiful Theatre of the Earth. Mario is joined by a lovely orchestra and a couple of different choirs. The audience is made up of all ages, from teenagers to young couples to senior citizens. This is singing at its purist - no overblown pyrotechnics or crazy lighting, no dancers, no smoke. It is a man on a stage, singing with a passion that will leave you almost breathless. While watching Mario sing, you can tell that he feels every note of the music and every emotion that the song addresses. His face, especially his eyes, are so expressive. His training in acting and his experience in theatre (Phantom, Les Miz) have given him an incredible ability to become a different character within each song.
The voice of the Moody Blues, Justin Hayward, makes a special appearance to join Mario for Nights In White Satin. Mario gives an introduction for most of the songs. The concert includes all but one song from the album Sometimes I Dream. The bonus section contains a Behind The Scenes featurette, Mario's biography, a photo gallery, and Mario's thoughts on each song. The picture quailty and sound are first rate. The editorial review is incorrect about subtitles - they are available in English, French and German. I think it's safe to say that the average person does not speak fluent Italian or Greek, so the person who decided to include subtitles deserves a raise. The concert portion is just about an hour and the featurette is around 10 minutes. This is a great dvd and well worth the cost. Mario is an amazing talent and he blows the "competition" (I don't need to throw names) out of the water with his vocal talent, passionate interpretation of songs, and amazing stage presence. He is charming and attractive and will hopefully introduce a new generation to the operatic/pop classical hybrid of music.
