"For many of us during lockdown these are reflective and introspective times, so I thought viewing a concert chosen from my performing past would be appropriate and bring you back to a special comforting moment in time," said Sarah Brightman. "For me then, it was a pivotal period of transition, after which I experienced 20 years of an incredible life and career journey which I wasn't expecting. Hopefully my performance of many hits and favorite pieces, along with special guests Andrea Bocelli and Andrew Lloyd Webber, will inspire many of you to contribute to one of these fine charities, who are both doing so much for people all over the world at this time. I hope you enjoy and remember it's still a beautiful world out there and we have so much to look forward to."

In efforts to raise money and support the Spotify COVID-19 Music Relief and COVID -19 Solidarity Response Funds, donations are encouraged to these music and health care industry professionals impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
