Hi all,
I'm new to the board. I came here and felt the need to register because tonight I have downloaded and heard a quite amazing mp3 of Bernadette Peters singing Rose's Turn at the 2003 Tony Awards that really impressed me. I have always liked her (even if I know her more for her movies, since I live in Europe and have never had the chance to see her in theater), but this performance sounded really incredible. I'd like to know if it exists a video clip of it that it's possible to see or download somewhere.
Thanks anyway!
Romy
P.S Probably you all have it, but just in case someone hasn't got the chance to listen to it, here it is the mp3:

Romy, Anyone who taped the 2003 Tony Awards would have a video version of her performance but whether anyone has taken the time to put it on the internet, I don't know. It is an amazing performance whether heard through audio or seen through video. The entire audience at Radio City Music Hall (about 3000 people) leaped to their feet at the conclusion and gave her a long standing ovation. A very unusual occurrence from a theater industry audience. I remember spontaneously jumped up and applauding in my living room.

The only thing better than seeing that Tony Awards performance was seeing her do it in person at the Schubert Theater. She blew the roof off of that place.

True. Very True. Though there was something particularly special about that Tony Awards performance.
I don't know but was it just me who said to herself at the conclusion of Bernadette's performance "Take that, Michael Reidel!"

"Take that Michael Ridel" that's great. The Tonys were special. When you get a standing ovation at the Tonys you know you've done something special.

Thanks a lot to all for the feedback about that performance. Even listening to the mp3 I got clearly the sensation that she had to be magic that night but to read the impressions of those who saw her it's really great. Beside the video from Tony Awards, that now I'm even more motivated to find , you made me curious to see what's available of her musicals on vhs or dvd. Hopefully Amazon or other sites like that would have some.

Into The Woods and Sunday In The Park With George should be available at amazon. They are wonderful to watch.

Romy, Several of her movies are available on DVD as well as a few musicals and concerts.
I highly recommend starting with Sunday in the Park With George, Into the Woods, Bernadette Peters in Concert, Impromptu and Pennies From Heaven. And the Cast Recordings of her other Broadway shows are also very enjoyable. As for her solo albums, I still very much enjoy I'll Be Your Baby Tonight and her two Carnegie Hall CDs (Sondheim Etc. and Sondheim, Etc. Etc.) are also must haves for any fan.

Thanks for the advices  . You're right both Sunday in The Park with George and Into THe woods are available on Amazon, I think I'll start with them. About the movies, luckily I have already some of them, like Pennies from Heaven and Impromptu, that is one of all my time favourites. I think she steals the show in it, and her scenes with Judy Davis are particularly great.

For some good old-fashioned hysterical comedy from Bernadette, I also recommend The Jerk if you haven't seen it yet. Bobbie's Girl is also a sweet one and more recent.

It's all subjective of course but I gotta give props to "Loves Rogers and Hammerstein" it has become my all time favorite Bernadette album, especially since seeing her perform several of those songs.

I've read some reviews on Bobbie's girl and it sounds a very nice film, luckily it's available. It seems there are also a lot of albums not to miss (thanks again for all the suggestions). I think I'll start from the Sondheim ones. It would be the occasion to hear again her beautiful version of Not a day goes by, I listened some time ago.

Sitting in the front row of the Shubert Theatre and watching Bernadette do Rose's Turn was the most magical thing I've ever witnessed onstage.

I actually attended those Tony awards (and ruined my credit in the process), but let me tell you...it was amazing. You could literally feel this energy in the air. Something I will never forget.

Get this...my friend and I, right before the show ended, screamed at the top of our lungs "Oklahoma!" Hugh...so generously, started to sing for us!! And the ENTIRE place then started to sing.
