Legendary Performance

"An Epic concert experience at the legendary Stata De France before 200,000 people that spanned over 2 different nights. This performance block was over a 2 week, 4-night performance schedule on the UK portion of Dion's 98 tour. 2 back to back performances at Stata De France for 100,000 people per night, and 2 English performances at Wembley Stadium. 78,000 patrons per show. Concert attendance was recordbreaking.



Although Celine has vocally sounded better on past live efforts, namely "Live in Paris" which was recorded at the legendary Zenith theater in France, in which her voice sounded incredible. This album lives up to the legendary billing that it has been given. A true feet in sound and choreography, the challenge of adapting a show that normally played for 25,000 people to 100,000 people was achieved and Dion and her band delivered.



On this album Celine glides through songs from her most recent French release. Celine's quiet and captivating performance of the weary "Je Crois Toi" and the powerful moving performances of "Terre" and "Dans Un Autre Monde" are exciting to the concert listener. Celine tackles 2 songs from her record breaking, 1995 best selling French album in history, Duex. "Pour Que Taimes Encore" is a crowd favorite and the tragic "Je Sais Pas" (I Don't Know), is especially touching due to the cancer scare Dion's husband was going through at the time.



Celine also samples a few English hits including the worldwide phenomenon "My Heart Will Go On and the title track from her most recent English release "Lets Talk About Love."



With Dion's touring days behind her it is unlikely that fans will ever see such an epic performance again in her career.

"THIS is an album only made for money! Celine's voice isn't at her best -just compare songs like "pour que tu m'aimes encore" "j'irai ou tu iras" with the album "live a paris"-. Plus this album has been recorded in a stadium, which is the worst place for the sound! The most deceiving in this album is the songs its gives, half of the titles already were on the previous live album, and almost 3/4 of the concert isn't here (her virtual duets, her especial live covers, her musical moments, the persentation of her crew, lots of her hits,...)"

Au Coeur Du Stade, totally rocks!

"I abselutly love this LIVE CD of Céline Dion. Her French music is much much more better than her English music!! I'm not the only one who likes her French music more, than English though. Even though I don't speak French, her French music touches me in away to love it anyways. :) I didn't actually buy the Au Coeur Du Stade CD, it was burned for me. I'm glad I got it burned! I totally love it:) I can't stop saying that I love it, cos I do. My favorite part on this CD is where she does the duet with Jean-Jacques Goldman...:) And then when she sings My Heart Will Go On and Pour Que Tu M'aimes Encore!! Céline is the best singer, in the world. Nobody can compare to her! I highly recommend on buying Au Coeur Du Stade now... :)!"
