Dreamchaser World Tour

Brightman anticipated that the tour would be simple; the usual orchestra that accompanied her on previous tours was reduced to four musicians (a guitarist, a pianist,a drummer and a keyboard). The number of dancers was also reduced from being a large number to only two.[5]

The scenery of the stage consisted of a huge screen with tri-dimensional images and videos from space, light, and nature. A raising platform at center of the stage was used by Brightman on several stages of the show. She was joined by Erkan Aki, a Swiss tenor, for singing "Canto della Terra" and "The Phantom of The Opera". During the show, Brightman made ten changes of clothes.[6]

The show lasted two hours with an interlude of twenty minutes, and the track list (plus the encore) had nineteen tracks. The track list of the tour consisted of her well-known songs plus new ones from the Dreamchaser album. As the concert was space-themed, it included various songs from the 2000 album La Luna, which also had a theme related to space.

The "Dreamchaser World Tour" received generally positive reviews from critics. The Gazette congratulated Brightman as she dealt with such a small band yet was able to maintain the "majestic mystery" of the performance.[8] The Atlanta Music Scene also reviewed positively the simplicity of the production; "It was the simpler moments when Brightman truly sparkled".[9] Blogcritic.org identified the lightning show as "stunning".[10]

On the review by Twincities.com, the Dreamchaser Tour was described as "enchanting, yet odd", "all the while, stunning".[11] Times Colonist reviewer, Mike Delvin rated Brightman's show with 3.5 stars and wrote: "The show was a spectacle, and the singing was anything but secondary".[7] Buffalo News, in contrast, recognized the purity of Brightman's voice but expected a better elaborated concert.[12] Although many congratulated the simplicity of the performance, other reviews criticized Brightman; Randy Cordova, in azcentral wrote that the show "lacked the outlandish sense of spectacle for which she is known." and compared negatively the simplicity of this tour with the elaboration of the previous.[13] Postcity also criticized Brightman by stating: "All in all, Brightman made terrific use of her high-end stage show, all the while serving up a vocal performance that was just good enough so as not to get completely overshadowed".[14]
