Multi-platinum RCA recording artist Christina Aguilera took Sydney, Australia by storm when her "Back to Basics" world tour hit the Acer Arena for two shows in July 2007. This breathlessly energetic, dazzling live concert spectacular brought the house down-and the cameras were rolling there to catch it all.
Back to Basics -- Live and Down Under captures all the energy and emotion of Aguilera during her Sydney concert. Presented by the RCA Music Group, this new 90-minute DVD will be available exclusively at Best Buy on February 5 and online at www.BestBuy.com now.
"Christina's done it again -- another stunning long-form from one of music's greatest performers. We are fortunate Best Buy shares our excitement and has partnered with us on this project," comments Tom Corson, EVP/GM RCA Music Group.
This concert spectacular features 18 great songs spanning the four-time Grammy Award-winning superstar's amazing career, including the smash singles "Ain't No Other Man" and "Candyman" off "Back to Basics"; Number One hits "Come on Over Baby (All I Want Is You)" and "What a Girl Wants"; her No. 2 smash "Beautiful," the 2004 Grammy Award winner for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance and more.
The DVD captures the excitement of this lavish tour, from the unique stage with 3 distinct scenes, more than 600 moving lights and a state-of-the-art hydraulic system, to production incorporating everything from burlesque cabaret to trapeze choreography, fire jugglers, and stilt walkers-but the heart and soul of the show is Christina Aguilera, with her awe-inspiring voice and silver-screen charisma. Bonus material gives viewers a true 360 degree perspective of the tour by featuring exclusive interviews with her dancers, wardrobe (Simone Harouche), hair and makeup (Stephen Sollitto), musicians, background vocalists, musical director (Rob Lewis), Jordan Bratman (Christina's husband) and Christina herself.
