Listening to HAREM, it's hard to believe that multifarious pop diva Sarah Brightman first came to fame as a proponent of musical theater (not counting her early stint with dance-pop group Hot Gossip). After going through a number of stylistic shifts over the years, she has arrived at an unusual point where her sound evokes a strange confluence of Charlotte Church, Enya, and Madonna. Given the "Arabian Nights" sub-theme of the album, you might even throw in a little "Desert Rose"-era Sting as well.
HAREM veers between ethereal, almost New Age-like moments, operatic flurries, percolating dance beats, and some accessible Eastern-flavored exoticism. Through it all, Brightman's Broadway past occasionally pops up, as on her orchestra-accompanied version of the standard "Stranger in Paradise," which is itself based on a classical theme. In fact, the orchestra pops up throughout the album, playing arrangements by former Killing Joke member Jaz Coleman, who's surely ventured as far afield from his origins by this point as Ms. Brightman.

    Performed by the international diva Sarah Brightman. Harem is the top of the sucessfull career of this star.
    Pop, rock, etnico, love, passion, happiness, hate, Techno, hurt averything is included in this cd.
    If you would like to hear a very different cd with the best voice that you haven´t ever heard this is your chance. A great mix "It´s a beautiful day" created by Puccini (Italian) tells the history of a romance between a Geisha and an american soldier with rithms from the desert and sung by a british dive it´s a great mix of opera and techno. You´ll love it
    Arabian night with his 11 minutes it´s an hymn for life, The war is over now will capture you heart and of course this cd includes the hits Harem, what a a wonderful world.
    Do you want to hear the best of sarah this is the best!!
