Some of the best music you are ever going to hear in a musical with outstanding lyrics - but then what else would you expect when the guys from Abba and Tim Rice team up. The point about 'Chess in Concert' as opposed to the original soundtrack is that it has been rearranged to make the story more comprehensible to the average person who has not been with this work since 'square one'. In this particular DVD there is minimal staging and so you do have to use your imagination. For me the ideal would be this new arrangement but staged in the traditional way. All the voices are great and even though I have been listening to the original soundtrack for decades, I was not disappointed. I imagine that most people who buy this product will already be fans, which is a shame in a way as it is the best 'introduction' to the musical currently available.Read full review

This was a brilliant stage musical, so being able to see the live concert DVD is the next best thing to seeing it live on stage again.
