Although this video is laced with the master guitar work we all expect from Steve, this is really an opportunity to see how well the melodies hold up in the orchestral environment and they do – extremely well. Steve did most of the arrangements for this performance himself. In many ways it does show him almost as an extension of the Frank Zappa sense of harmonic lines and rhythms. Well worth viewing for any Steve Vai fan (and it’s hard not to be). Enjoy!!
This is a no-brainer. Steve Vai is THE BEST guitar player alive. He doesn't just play the guitar, he lives it. His emotions flow through the way he plays, and mixing his awesome talent with an orchestra is fabulous! Great filming of the concert as well as great sound makes this a good buy. If you want to see a DVD of more than just the master playing guitar, but him playing with a talented orchestra, this is it.
Very happy with the show on this DVD, I've always "heard" Vai, and I've seen him from far away live, but seeing him up close with the orchestra is just fantastic. Getting to see him play every nuance perfectly with a stunning cast of other musicians is well worth the watch in my opinion.

original presentation of steve vai music, very fresh! excellent sound and video quality. still very much a "rock" performance even though the orkestra adds a awesome layer of intrest. overall it(steve vai) elevates the guitar to its rightful place as the quintessential instrument of the modern era!
