In Conversation with Il Divo
'The Time of Our Lives' Il Divo with Tony Braxton
Amazon.com:
The international sensations Il Divo were brilliantly created by mixing some of today's hottest musical trends: the operatic and classical resurgence carried by the Three Tenors and Andrea Bocelli, the sex appeal of a boy band--and a calculated nod to Beatlemania. (Call them the Fab Forte.) This concert DVD, filmed at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, showcases the quartet's vocal chops and undeniable audience connection. The singers take turns in the glitzy spotlight, delivering a host of international favorites that their fans have come to expect, and they don't disappoint. Highlights include an almost devotional delivery of 'Unbreak My Heart (Regresa a mi)' and the French heartbreaker 'Pour que tu m'aimes encore.' If sometimes their material selection seems more schmaltz than splendore ('Feelings,' 'All by Myself'), Il Divo fans won't mind a bit. Extras include an intimate behind-the-scenes documentary with interviews with all four members, plus extra tracks including 'The Time of Our Lives,' a soulful performance with Toni Braxton. Ah, dolce!--A.T. Hurley
Customer Reviews
Average Rating: 
Rating:  - A very very good DVD
I have seen this DVD 4 times in a week. So I think it is very good. The show is great and the songs are even greater. I recommend it to all Il Divo fans and not only. I regret I didn't buy it earlier.
Rating: - Il Divo - Live at the Greek
Worth acquiring it. You'll listen and watch it over and over again. Outstanding presentation, melodies, songs, above all voices.
Rating: - Worth your time!
This is well worth having. About the best I have seen yet of Il Divo. You cannot go wrong owning this one. The sound is great & well recorded. A frine fine group of guys.
Rating:  - Awesome theatrics
This group not only sounds great and not only do they have a good arranger, they perform spectacularly.
Rating: - Entertaining, But for Some of the Wrong Reasons
I have to admit, I cheated on this one and saw the performance not once, but a few times on PBS, used as a vehicle for their interminable funding drives. In retrospect, I doubt that I would have purchased it.
Il Divo has an interesting sound, utilizing the talents of three lesser opera lights and a lounge singer. I find their "Three Ring Circus" approach to harmony, each freely working within the tune, pleasing to the ear. It gives a feeling of energy and the quality of their voices blend, even as they use them in accordance with their own feelings. If I were interested in close harmony, I would be listening to a barbershop quartet. The music selection has become a bit hackneyed, appearing in most of what they have recorded, but gives solid vehicles to showcase their talents.
The video, on the other hand, is amusing for all the wrong reasons. The heavy handed Cowell approach is most apparent, as each number is preceded by posing in various corners of the stage. Even as they perform, there is almost a mechanical assumption of supposed casual attitudes by each member of the troupe, whether leaning against components of the set or against one another. Now, perhaps they need not stand there woodenly and sing, but the stiff histrionics detract, rather than add to the quality of the performance. These are four talented and attractive young men (with, I fear, one possible exception) and their personalities are sufficient to have the desired effect on the female audience. ... Read More
