Barbra Streisand in Concert is Barbra Streisand's first full tour which ran from 1993 through 1994. The tour consisted of 26 shows starting on New Year's Eve 1993 in Las Vegas and ended Anaheim, California in July 1994. The 18 shows that went on sale following the new year concerts in Las Vegas sold out in 1 hour.^[2] This tour was also the first time Barbra toured anywhere in Europe and was the last until her Timeless tour in 2000.

Background

Barbra had only toured once previously, in 1966, when a planned five-week 20-city tour was cut to four dates, due to her pregnancy.^[3] Although Streisand continued to perform at various concert events, the 1994 tour marked her first after decades of reported stage fright.

Commercial reception

According to Barbra's official website, the tour set attendance and box office records in every city it played in with the first 18 dates selling out within 1 hour. The phone requests for tickets reached 5 million within the first hour the tour went on sale.^[4] The tour grossed $50 million in 1994.

Broadcasts and recordings

HBO broadcast the final Anaheim show (taped July 24, 1994) as Barbra: The Concert on August 21, 1994, garnering a television audience of 11.2 million viewers, and becoming the highest-rated musical event in the network's history. A home video release of The Concert followed a month later on VHS and Laserdisc.^[5] At the 47th Primetime Emmy Awards, the special was nominated in ten categories, winning five, including Outstanding Variety or Music Special and Individual Performance in a Variety or Music Program.^[6]

A live album recorded at Madison Square Garden was released in September 1994, The Concert reached number 10 on the Billboard Album Chart and was certified triple Platinum by the RIAA.^[7]

In 2004 Sony BMG produced a DVD of the previously unreleased New Year's Eve shows recorded in Las Vegas, The Concert: Live at the MGM Grand.^[8]
