On January 15, a CD and a DVD with recordings of Olivia's March 2006 concerts at the Sydney Opera House in Australia will be released. Olivia Newton-John and the Sydney Symphony: Live at the Sydney Opera House (2008) features 27 tracks, a great majority of the lady's greatest hits and some less popular.

A couple of the performances were actually specially filmed before the Japanese 2006 concerts to add to the DVD performance. The DVD also featuresbehind-the-scenes footage – a personal tour of some of Olivia’s favourite spots in Sydney from the Harbor Bridge to Manly Beach, a vacation spot where she spentsummers as a child. Highlights of this concert DVD were shown on PBS television in the USA.
