And there's one thing for more international this upcoming DVD stand, he is totally rooted in Brazil. I think the concern is part of the artist."

The Show

Right at the opening, Ivete saluted the public singing "Brasileiro". On "Desejo de Amar, Ivete and her dancers had fun on the electric track installed on the big catwalk that connected a small stage to the main stage. The first guest of the night was Juanes that sang the new song "Dar-te" in Portuguese and Spanish with Ivete. One of the highlights of the night was the performance of Michael Jackson’s ‘Human Nature’, wearing a golden dress.< Right after that was Seu Jorge’s turn to take over the public. With him, Ivete sang another new song called "Pensando em Nós Dois’. The next guest was Nelly Furtado. Together they sang in English "Where it Begins", another new song, written by the two of them. Another highlighted moment of the show was called ‘The Gift’. A fabric cylinder went down the stage, and images of Ivete Sangalo’s video were projected on it. At the end of the song , the cylinder was lifted revealing a huge gift box. The music made a suspense and after a few minutes the box was also lifted, with Ivete Sangalo inside, sitting on the piano, playing and singing Lionel Richie’s song ‘Easy’. The hit ‘Agora eu Já Sei’, from the DVD ‘Pode Entrar’, was the chosen song for the duet with Diego Torres, sang in Spanish and Portuguese. The last part of the show was a sequence of big hits that made the public jump and dance. For the big finale of the DVD recording, Ivete left the stage, flying hanging on balloons.

Critical reception

The album received mixed to average reviews from most music critics. Jon Pareles of the New York Times gave a favorable review for the album. Pareles started his review, saying: "She had fireworks and confetti, dancers and costumes, and a catwalk that got her closer to the audience. She was indefatigable onstage, doing fast samba footwork in high heels through a three-hour set". But he prevented that: "it won’t be easy for Ms. Sangalo to expand her territory and join performers like Beyoncé, Madonna and Shakira as a globally recognized pop star. There is, inevitably, a language barrier for songs in Portuguese." Pareles ended his review, by saying: "Even in New York she was playing to a home crowd." Jordan Levin from Miami Herald was mixed in his review, saying: "Her charisma and powerful voice are unmistakable, but her bright, brassy style, or her constant championing of Brazil, may not translate." He concluded the review, by saying: "Sangalo has an ability to whip up a frenzy of happiness and energy that's rare for any star. For her Brazilian audience, that talent is certainly more than enough." Mauro Ferreira from Notas Musicais was mixed in his review, saying that: "It could have been an anthology show if the script had prioritized the true gems of the axé music genre, but the new material highlights the populist flair by Ivete adopted in recent years. Ferreira ended his review, saying that the show "ends with impression of representing another unnecessary step down in a falling slope."
