DVD Review
Prepare to be captivated by the graceful beauty and infectious energy of the 12 Girls Band! Two years after their best-selling, chart-topping US debut, Eastern Energy, the group returns with a brand-new album (Shanghai) and concert DVD (Live from Shanghai), showcasing an eclectic mix of traditional Chinese folk melodies and selections of jazz, classical, and pop music.
Formed in 2001, their 2003 debut album in Japan, Beautiful Energy, sold 2 million units, and ranks as the highest-selling Chinese band in Japan. These 12 talented young women playing traditional Chinese instruments — the erhu, pipa, yanguin, and gu zheng — create masterful music on a broad musical canvas in an unforgettable and distinctive style all their own.
American audiences will witness the worldwide phenomenon in concert when 12 Girls Band embarks on a major 30-city U.S. tour in the fall of 2007.

good music - Rating: 4/5

Sounds A Bit Like M E H D I ... - Rating: 5/5
This music that will be liked by all who enjoy M E H D I , Y A N N I or K I T A R O. It is the very essence of good music. So tranquil, yet so spirited, this DVD is a refreshing break from my well-worn collection, I just keep wanting to listen to it over and over again. I am amazed! It reminds me somewhat of music from the movie Seven Swords , but still very unique. This is music to the soul. Absolutely relaxing, as well.
*** ALSO RECOMMENDED: M E H D I ~ Instrumental Paradise Volume 8 ..A True Gem, Just go Listen to the samples!
12 Girls Band: Live from Shanghai - Rating: 4/5
OUTSTANDING !!! Wonderful classical and contemporary music mixed with todays top singers provides for a very entertaining concert.
Pretty everything, girls, music, scenery, etc. - Rating: 5/5
This is one of the few concert DVD's that I own that inspires me to play music (I play the piano) with more feeling.
This is a great DVD but not the best of them... - Rating: 4/5
Because 2005 Romant Energy Live, 2004 Miracle Live Japan Tour, 2003 Budokon Live, Miralce Live 2002 are all better than this... Most of the songs on Shanghai DVD are repetition from previous except for some like" Frigile", " Carmen",... the sound is great ... But I'm quite dissappointed about Manhttan records - the dvd package has no insert artwork and dvd itself no bouns scenes like most dvd has...
