One of her best concerts June 8, 2009 Amazoning Addict (Las Vegas, NV) This was an amazing concert with such diversity. Her mixture of the classics, her newer material and other standards demonstrates why she is such an iconic performer. The setting, the music, and a fundraiser all in one. If you are a Barbra Streisand fan this is a MUST have DVD
Barbra Streisand - One Voice April 11, 2009 H. Pease (Glendale, CA, USA) I first saw this video in 1986 when it was first released. The DVD is honoring its 20th Anniversary. Barbra Streisand at her very best in the relaxed home environment with a star studded audience that included political figures and actors. This DVD is beautiful with vibrant colors and outstanding sound. She sings mostly old favorites, does an impeccable job on Over the Rainbow, wows the audience with The Way We were, and closes with a stirring America the Beautiful. Barry Gibb makes a surprise visit and their duets are okay but not the highlights for me. Barbra Streisand sings with such passion and effortlessness and makes it seem as though she has just written the song herself. Brilliant This concert was a fund raiser for various (liberal) causes including raising money for then Senator Alan Cranston. My only caveat is that there is no closed captioning which made it difficult for this hearing impaired listener to totally appreciate.
Very good March 4, 2008 C. Manter The intro when she appears from a cloud mist singing "Somewhere" is delivered flawlessly and am considering requesting it to be played at my funeral. The rest is all very well done as well.
A MILESTONE HAPPENING February 13, 2008 Shalene Holmes (Hollywood, CA) That voice, that smile, that personality ... that world famous nose! One Voice is a dvd that everyone should own, not just for that breath-taking talents of one of our greatest entertainers ... but, also, for the soul searching messages from a woman that truly cares about the state of our world.
Barbra Streisand's 1986 concert very inspiring!!! December 31, 2007 Matt Tawesson (Macomb, IL, USA) The date: September 6, 1986. The setting: Barbra Streisand's backyard in Malibu. This concert was held by Barbra at her home. It was to raise money so that Democrats could take back control of the Senate and make things right for the nation, and face the issues that we were very frightened about back then. And yes, twenty years after this show, we seem to be facing these similar situations still. Barbra looked absolutely beautiful from beginning to end in this program. It never occurred to me (or anyone else) that this concert (and her other specials) would become available on DVD. Before this show came to DVD, people had to buy it in music format (LP, cassette, and CD). But now, it is here on DVD for fans of Barbra to enjoy. Barbra sings some of her most well loved songs, such as Evergreen, The Way We Were, People, and a number of others. Barry Gibb shows up later on and shares the stage with her to duet on Guilty and What Kind of Fool (here's a trivia tidbit for you: When Barbra was doing One Voice, it had been six years since she and Barry sang these two songs together--be sure to check out her startled reaction to Barry's voice while singing Guilty; that's funny). That was interesting. Before the show begins, Robin Williams gives the audience a comedy show (Camp Barbra). You also get responses from a few celebrities regarding Barbra doing this concert. Bette Midler, Henry Winkler, Whitney Houston, Sally Field, Sheena Easton, and Rep. Barbara Jordan give their positive thoughts regarding this evening and know that it would be an evening no one would forget. There are a couple of extra bonuses to this DVD: 1. You get a 2006 introduction by Barbra, in which she describes in retrospect that evening and her reason for holding the concert. She also discusses the issues that we're currently facing over twenty years later. 2. There is an audio invitation by her before the show (from '86, of course). The audio and video quality on this DVD is so sharp and clear, you almost get the feeling that you've gone back in time to 1986 watching this program. A must have for any Barbra fan's collection. If you own One Voice on any one of the music formats (LP, tape, and/or CD), but don't yet have the DVD of it, what are you waiting for?
