Album Notes Personnel includes: Josh Groban (vocals); Angie Stone, Andrea Corr (vocals); John Williams (conductor); Lili Hayden (violin); David Foster (piano); Rhys Fulber (keyboards). In the wake of Andrea Bocelli's successful opera-pop crossover, young Josh Groban came along and added a crucially marketable element to the mix; that of a college-age heartthrob type destined to enchant listeners of the female persuasion from pre-teen to senior citizen. For the follow-up to his highly profitable 2001 debut, Groban chose to release a live album, all the better to further the feeling of intimacy already inherent in his emotive style. As IN CONCERT makes plain, Groban sounds equally committed and convincing whether he's making like Bocelli on "Un Amore Per Sempre" or delivering a stately version of Don McLean's '70s folk-pop classic "Vincent." He stirs the pot still further by taking on "The Prayer" as an elegant duet with none other than neo-soul queen Angie Stone, and it's as impressive to hear how well he blends with her as it is to note how well she adapts her voice and approach to the situation at hand. You can keep waiting for a misstep from this wunderkind if you want, but it sure doesn't seem likely to happen. | Find errors in the product description?

Reviews I love this CD! Josh Groban has a wonderful voice, a big part of why I made this purchase. My son takes ballet and I like working with him at home also. It is a great combination of a 'classical' sound and modern feel. This is the perfect music style to practice positions and let him make up his own routines (for our viewing pleasure). The DVD is just a bonus. If ever there's that time when nothing appealing is on TV I know I can just pop it into the player and relax while I'm being serenaded...at home it can be my own personal concert!!

I heard a cd that someone else had and liked it. I checked Ebay and found the same cd. I listen to this cd everyday. Review ID: 10000000001803653 Was this review helpful?

The CD is really good, with the previously unreleased O Holy Night, which he sings beautifully. But the DVD - it is great! To actually see Josh Groban sing all his debut album's songs, plus more! I loved it! It is really entertaining to watch, not just because of wonderful songs, but he also does a few unexpected things. The DVD also features a "making of the special" part, and backstage footage by his brother. All in all, this is a great CD/DVD combo! I highly reccomend it!
