This is DVD of Hayley Westenra's is absolutely outstanding! Her voice is extremely clear, crisp and never wavers. She sings all of her quality songs as of 2005. The director stays on the subject, Hayley, without over directing the camera angles. The high quality sound is in two formats; 5:1 surround sound and stereo, quite surprising for a recorded TV show. The producers did not scrimp on the orchestra, sets or the accompanying choir providing a richness for Hayley’s signing without being overpowering. Her younger sister Sophie sings a counter melody as she joins Hayley on “Across The Universe Of Time”. Her sister voice is just as pure as Hayley’s. I had wished to hear more from both sisters in other selections. “Benedictus” sent chills down my spine, leaving me wonder how this woman hits such high notes. Hayley’s version of “Wuthering Heights” is a delight to listen to. I prefer her version to any other I have heard. This is a must have DVD if you are a fan of Hayley Westenra or Celtic Woman.Read full review
For a Hayley fan - this is more than a person can handle. She is far better "live" than on the CD's. She is said to have the "voice of an angel" on CD, but this live DVD is - is some kind of miracle. The orchestra and choir did an excellent job - very well conducted and rehearsed. All local performers. There are also dance performances by New Zealand natives. The "Set" is beautiful and very detailed. It changes and transforms itself to the mood of each song. It has to be computer controlled. The camera work and sound is impeccable.
Hayley is easily one of the best voices to grace the planet Earth. Especially at the age of 17. Just wish she would do more DVDs. Absolutely outstanding!

This is Hayley's only individual recorded concert. Although she appears with Celtic Women DVD, "A New Journey, Live at Slane Castle, Ireland." A must have for anyone who enjoys her most beautiful Soprano voice. The DVD is well organized and flows very well. The extras about New Zealand are very interesting and entertaining.

I enjoy her singing. This dvd had her performance without much talking between songs. The additional features, which were good, had the talking.
