Very high quality video. They let you do this? Asked you to to it? I'm so used to any live venue forbidding any recording?
It's a good thing Kelli's husband isn't the jealous type. She and Matthew love to perform together. There was one of those 4th of July PBS specials from the Capitol Building and the 2014 New York Pops Holiday concert at Carnegie Hall. (I went to the dress rehearsal. Kelli told Matthew that her son wanted a pet rabbit. That usually doesn't work out well.)
At both they sang the balcony scene ("Tonight" from West Side Story.
For a place like Feinstein's 54 Below, I guess it really depends on the artist if they let you take videos. I've been to some shows there where they explicitly say no recording of any kind or no flash photography at the start of the show. If they do that, then I don't take any videos. I've also been to other shows where there's no mention of any kind regarding recording videos or taking photos. For this show, there was no mention of any kind.
In fact, I have been asked by a producer of one of the shows at 54 Below to attend one of his shows and take some videos after he saw some of my other videos on Youtube. So it’s tough to say if you can or cannot take videos. I know other people do it. There are a lot of videos from 54 Below on Youtube. But I've also taken down videos from Youtube because the artist (or a representative for the artist) didn't want their videos on there. So I’m respectful of their wishes.
Sounds like the Times review was of the Saturday show. Everything mentioned in the review was the same for the Sunday show with the addition of the Kelli duet.
Here's another video from the Sunday show. The Hairspray medley to close the show.
Love it... Thanks for sharing! Missing the show since I didn't know if I would be available that far in advance (I am, ugh! so annoying lol) and hesitated at the ticket price... which didn't stop it from being sold out immediately, anyway!

Did you get compensated? I would love to do this (for free) if I got compensated with a free show!
The only show I've been to there that explicitly did not allow recording was Jeremy Jordan in 2015. Which stinks because Benjamin Rauhala didn't release videos from the show and now... It's completely wiped from my brain really, since they were all special arrangements that I've never seen Jeremy do elsewhere. I really didn't understand it because, like, he and Ben didn't want anybody to ever know what they did in that show? *shrugs* What a shame though not to have it recorded for posterity, either to be released by the producer on YT or as a live album. I was introduced to his greatness through his other 54 Below videos, after all... Meh.
I wasn't able to take the producer up on his offer since the show was during the week and I live in Boston. If it was on the weekend, I definitely would have done it. I would have been compensated with the free show.
Jeremy Jordan was whom I was referring to when they explicitly said no recording. That's why there's almost no video on Youtube from his 54 Below engagement last year.
Who did he perform Over the Rainbow with at the shows without Kelli? I was at his concert in Morristown, Nj on Friday and he did it with some girl he met through some master class program thing in DC.
