Live in Las Vegas (2007)

If you were one of the handful of folks who missed Céline Dion's mega-run in Las Vegas, fear not: Céline Dion: A New Day is a riveting, sumptuous front-row seat to the whole extravagant experience. As concert DVDs go, this is a show of a lifetime, nearly six hours featuring not only no-expenses-spared production values and every song from Dion's famed show, but priceless extras as well. Dion's substantial voice is in fine form, and sparkles on signature tunes like "A New Day Has Come," "The Power of Love," and of course the theme from Titanic, "My Heart Will Go On" (and Dion-watchers will note that she's thankfully dialed back the breast-beating that used to accompany this song).

But as impressive as the performances are--and they include the talented gymnasts, dancers, and backup singers who work as a Cirque du Soleil-style ensemble--the set's most memorable moments are found in the personal footage and extras. Dion comes across as truly humble and approachable, with a wicked sense of humor and real compassion for her hard-working staff and her fans. There are sweet, intimate moments of Dion with her husband and son, as well as telling scenes that show her true resourcefulness (girlfriend does her own makeup!). The many docs include one on the building of her special theater and the building of the show from the ground up. "If you're going to gamble," says Dion's manager and husband, René Angélil, "Vegas is the place to do it." Ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner. --A.T. Hurley Amazon.com

absolutely amazing!

I'm very pleases I bought this concert on blu-ray. the quality of the image is amazing. Her performance is awesome, I've been very touched by the way way she treats people. She's a phenomenal singer, so professional. I would recomend this item 100%.

I've been her fan for many years, I specially like her french albums (I'm not very happy about the last one, though). It's obvious how she has improved her singing. This concert is so creative, the way they use the background screen, I love it. the dancers are very good, specially the mime.

Buy it, you wont regret it. July 22, 2008

INCREDIBLE

Celine can do no wrong!! Amazing camera job, letting you see the show from all different views. The songs are amazing and she shines especially in "I Surrender" and "River Deep Mountain high"! She is incredible in the meet and greet on disc 1. She is so nice and normal, and so sweet and generous to the people she meets and takes time to really talk to each and every person in the room as a long time friend or family member. The extra features are excellent. This is definitely worth the price, dont hesitate to buy this, you'll be glad when you get this. July 22, 2008

More Than A Concert

Celine Dion, A New Day, is a must for any Celine Dion fan. If you never saw the concert in Las Vegas this will not only give you an almost "being there" presence but also, on a separate disc, a backstage pass to see the concert from the time Celine leaves home until the concert is over. Also another presentation of "secrets" regarding the creation and presentation of the show. Although I am biased, since I saw the show twice over its five year run, this is a wonderful DVD that you can keep and enjoy again and again. July 22, 2008

Live In Las Vegas- A New Day.. Celion Dion

Went to Las Vegas twice to see Celion Dion at Ceasars Palace - The video plus backstage video (2 disc CD) are a great way to re-live the show. The show was great and CD is like having a permanent videotape of our trip. July 10, 2008
