Product Description

This is a DVD release. Join Pink Martini in concert as they musically travel the globe, from the cafés of Paris to Carnaval in Brazil to the streets of Tokyo. Discover the internationally acclaimed ensemble that the New Yorker has described as "breathtaking" as they take you on a kaleidoscopic cultural journey blended with the grand romance of the Golden Age of Hollywood. Filmed in the ensemble's hometown of Portland at the historic Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall, this DVD presents a thrilling full-length concert film (seen nationwide on PBS television) in pristine stereo sound, featuring many of Pink Martini's most beloved songs alongside previously unrecorded rarities.

Contains never-before-seen bonus films and features including a brand new "Story of Pink Martini" documentary featurette and an extensive slide show of Polaroids taken by bandleader Thomas Lauderdale. Includes special appearances by Masumi Timson on koto, and Brazilian marching band the Lions of Batucada.

If you are a Pink Martini Music Fan, you'll love this DVD!

I love Pink Martini! I have never seen Pink Martini Live in Concert. My nephew gave me this DVD for Christmas! I know it is not as good as seeing them live. But their DVD is the next best thing. It made me appreciate all the members even more, than just listening to their music.
They sing with such passion and energy. It is terrific. I do think the DVD sound is not as good as their records. However, all the things you see and learn about during the concert performance, their bio video and especially their Polaroids made this a new and wonderful experience.

If you like jazz, fun loving music, in 5 different languages you will love this DVD. As you can tell I am a avid fan. So, I am bias. China Forbes and the bandleader piano player are both so talented.

Wonderful opportunity to 'see' Pink Martini in Concert. They have only made one visit to Scotland. Would be wonderful if they cold return before too long. Great concert but did not include my favourite song 'je ne veux pas travailler'! More please. Kay
a Thrilling intro to Pink Martini

I first saw/heard of PM on PBS, I'm sure many others are Same.

(much as I 'hate' to say it) IF you haven't seen Pink Martini in person (me X 3) YOU HAVEN'T LIVED.

THEY WILL ROCK YOU, they will lay you down in the aisles.
they look good, they Sound FABULOUS, and they will leave you WANTING MORE.

(anything else I could say would take away from the description)
Brilliant Concert!

Reviewer: Mooksta66,
Brilliant concert DVD. Enjoyable comments from the band. Only complaint is the sound is only stereo disappointing when there are so many options available. However it's a great DVD and well worth buying!
Pure pleasure...

Having been a fan for a while, and seeing PM in concert over the summer, I think the DVD is delightful. I bought the first copy at the show, and have been to Amazon several times to send copies to friends. This is real entertainment that does not rely on vulgarity or profanity. Though I sometimes love those things, these are REALLY talented people who are doing something completely "outside the box." It's about time we get such an ingenious and important and ground breaking ensemble as Pink Martini. Fan forever!
