The Best

"If you are an Aznavour fan, this is a must have. I have 4 Aznavour concert dvds and I think this is the best one available. The sound is good and he is in good voice and form. He does most of his classic songs in various languages (French, English and Spanish) and includes some new ones. I am so happy to have this record of his performance. A couple of times a year, I get out the champagne and watch this video."

"Aznavour is a universal genius: one of the best composers, one of the top world performers, a prominent and prolific film actor and a very charming classy man. This high quality DVD is a treat for all educated people who also want to live in style."

"I received this DVD today - a wonderful addition to my Aznavour collection. It brought back fantastic memories of having had the privilege of seeing Monsieur Aznavour at Carnegie Hall in 1980. Each song on this DVD is a jewel. I enjoyed his brief introductions to explain or translate some of the lyrics, setting the mood. Notable among them is "Mon émouvant amour" during which he uses sign language. The selections offer us a broad spectrum of emotion and life - love (of course), frustration, lost opportunity, reflection, homosexuality, religion. The orchestra and backup vocalists are flawless. Although he's performed for decades, I got the feeling that he still loves to interact with his audience. Although in his early 70's when this concert was recorded, his passion, supreme musicality, stamina, and professionalism are evident at all times. This DVD is a "must-have" for newcomers and longtime fans!"
