Madonna’s MDNA Tour, the top trek of 2012, is coming to DVD and Blu-Ray on August 27 via Universal Music.
The tour, which took in $305 million over 88 shows, was a two-hour extravaganza that included 25 dancers and a ten-person band. Included were songs from the MDNA album along with past favorites like Open Your Heart, Express Yourself, Vogue, Like a Prayer and Hung Up.
The show’s co-director and Danny B. Tull commented ‘Madonna spent six months personally editing the video footage from 30 cameras and many different shows to put together the MDNA DVD. Her attention to every frame, every detail and nuance and total commitment to show her creative vision has been done to perfection. Each song is like a short movie. One minute you are in an action movie and the next you’re at a golden era musical before shooting across to India and back for a house party to finish. It’s better than any 3-D Imax movie out there and at a break neck pace that would make any Olympian struggle for breath’
The Material Girl added ‘My show is a journey . the journey of a soul from darkness to light. It is part cinematic musical theatre, part spectacle and sometimes intimate performance art. I know people can relate to it. It’s very important to me as an artist that my show not be taken out of context. It must be watched with an open heart from beginning to end.. I am sure if it is viewed this way, the viewer will walk away feeling inspired, invigorated and will want to make the world a better place.. And this of course is my intention.’
