The Symphony World Tour was the fourth worldwide concert tour by English soprano singer Sarah Brightman. The tour started on 4 November 2008 in the city of Monterrey and concluded on 5 April 2009 in Taipei. There were special guests that joined Brightman during select tour dates: Argentinean's Fernando Lima, Italy's Alessandro Safina, and Greece's Mario Frangoulis. The tour concept was a journey through the musical career that Sarah Brightman has had so far (three decades) and includes several high-tech virtual scenery that takes the audience from an enchanted forest, baroque lamps to an atmosphere of fairytales.[1] Much anticipation surrounded The Symphony World Tour especially since the production cost was reportedly more than $2 million and involved more than 100 tons of equipment.[2]
