Summary: Excellent
Comment: Very out-of-the-box performance for Wynonna, well done and very impressive. Wynonna is so personable and spiritual, I just love her talent and perspective.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Not bad, not bad at all!
Comment: Having been somewhat...bored by Wynonna since Don Potter ceased being her main musical director - especially after seeing her live - I was all set to purchase this DVD for my Wife for her birthday, and just sort of "leave the room" or something when it was on. W-R-O-N-G!!! This truly IS "Wynonna Unplugged," and with Italy as a backdrop - whew, the DVD is one of the few DVD's that've held my interest all-the-way-thru since..um..."the Criterion refurbishing of 'Gimme Shelter'," or something. Just Wy, two acoustic guitarists and an acoustic bassist (and Thank The Lord for her singers, Robert & Vicky!!!). Yes, I could have lived w/o her weepy moments where she..."reflects" on recent events, but the music - WOW. INCREDIBLE. And BTW, we also have that "Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert (1992)" DVD, and we were wondering who this singer, Zucchero, was - he's on here, evidentally, an opera singer of some sort (!), and just to see/hear him "jam" with Wy & her band on the-best-song-of-her-third-solo-CD, "Somebody To Love You," is itself worth the price of the DVD. Yes, I freely admit that I liked Wy much MUCH better before Her Mama got sick and Wy started singing (ulp) "adult contemporary," but "Wynonna Live In Venice" is incredible. No slick production, no "stings," just Wy and her singers and band - unplugged. You can't ask for much more. OH, and their version of "How Great Thou Art," sung/performed in a chapel or monastery or something made me want to disclaim every snide comment I've ever made about (sic) "Contemporary" Christian music, too.

Summary: A Different Combo
Comment: A moving compilation of "Country Music" sung by Wynonna &
band in the romantic beauty of Venice,Italy.
A religious woman,Wynonna was unable to visit the "Holy Land"
due to war.Instead she felt
she was directed to Italy,a place her late grandfather prophetically told her,she would someday visit and sing.
She reflects on on many memories while visiting a 700 year
old Church.Her rendition in the Church,of "How Great Though Art",is both mystical and moving.
Wynonna stated her singing brought her close to God in Italy.
Even if you are not a "Country &Western Fan ,the scenery
combined with all the music will lift your soul.

Summary: Awesome
Comment: Great movie! I recommend this to any Wynonna fan. Its just her,Kim, Vicki, Robert and 2 guitarist. All of the music is sung outdoors In Italy. All of the songs are great, but I love No One Else On Earth, Only Love, and How Great Thou Art. Her voice is just amazing.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Wynonna unplugged - what a treat!
Comment: Although the title is a little misleading (it's not a live concert as the title might suggest), the music is just wonderful. Wynonna sings many of her hits with just acoustic guitar accompaniment, and her rich, full, soulful voice is beautifully highlighted in each song. I wish there were more songs on this DVD, but for the price, this DVD certainly gives good value to any serious Wynonna fan. And the footage of rural Italy is just lovely.
