Recorded in September 1997 at the prestigious Royal Albert Hall, Sarah together with the English National Orchestra, performed an unforgettable concert of well-known Classical and Broadway pieces by composers such as Puccini, Gershwin, Delibes, Bernstein and Andrew Lloyd Webber. Included are memorable special guests: Andrea Bocelli performing Time to Say Goodbye with Sarah, Andrew Lloyd Webber on piano while Sarah sings the title song from his musical Whistle Down the Wind, and a special duet performance of Pie Jesu with Adam Clarke.
The full performance will premiere exclusively via Sarah’s YouTube channel beginning Saturday, May 9, 2020 at 12pm PT, 3pm ET, 8pm UK, 9pm Europe and will be globally available for everyone to enjoy for 72 hours.
Sarah Brightman, says: ‘For many of us during lockdown these are reflective and introspective times, so I thought viewing a concert chosen from my performing past would be appropriate and bring you back to a special comforting moment in time.
‘For me then, it was a pivotal period of transition, after which I experienced 20 years of an incredible life and career journey which I wasn’t expecting. Hopefully my performance of many hits and favourite pieces, along with special guests Andrea Bocelli and Andrew Lloyd Webber, will inspire many of you to contribute to one of these fine charities, who are both doing so much for people all over the world at this time. I hope you enjoy and remember it’s still a beautiful world out there and we have so much to look forward to.’
