交響曲
莎拉·布萊曼2008年發行的專輯
《交響曲》是一部由跨界女高音莎拉·布萊曼（Sarah Brightman）創作的專輯，於2008年由Manhattan Records公司發行，收錄了《Gothica》、《Symphony》等13首作品。
該專輯是莎拉布萊曼自2003年的《Harem》以來的第一張新專輯，略帶哥特風格，倫敦交響樂團和莎拉布萊曼的小妹Amelia Brightman也參與了該專輯的製作。發行不久就榮登billboard 跨界榜單第一名
2008年1月，莎拉發行了她自《harem》以來的第一張新錄音室專輯——略帶哥特風格的《真愛傳奇/交響曲》“Symphony”，專輯主打曲《Fleurs du Mal》（惡之花）以帶一點懸疑的管風琴，哥特搖滾磅薄氣勢拉開整張專輯的序幕，同名歌《Symphony》（交響曲）翻唱自德國Silbermond樂隊《Verschwende Deine Zeit》專輯中的《Symphonie》，是該專輯主打情歌；《Canto Della Terra》（大地之歌）是與跨界男高音Andrea Bocelli（安德烈波切利）等待十年的再度合作；《Sanvean》（我是你的陰影）翻唱自暗潮團體Dead Can Dance的《Sanvean (I'm Your Shadow）》；《I Will Be With You(Where The Lost Ones Go）》（我將與你同在）翻唱自挪威女歌手Sissel Kyrkjebo（西索）的同名曲，是口袋妖怪10周年動畫劇場版電影的主題片尾曲，在發行的單曲版本和維也納斯蒂芬大教堂個人演唱會裡是與 Chris Thompson （克里斯湯普森）合作的，而在本專輯是與 Kiss 的主唱Paul Stanley重新錄製了一個版本；《Schwere Tr?ume》（沉重的夢）改編自奧地利作曲家和指揮家 Mahler 的作品；《Sarai Qui》（你定會在那裡）翻唱自 Faith Hill 演唱的電影《珍珠港》主題曲《There You'll Be》，與義大利男高音Alessandro Safina（亞歷山大沙費納）用義大利語合唱，比原曲更加大氣磅礴；《Storia D'amore》（愛的故事）是一首古典作品，貌似來自義大利的同名電影；《Let It Rain》（下雨吧）是原創的都市格調情歌；《Attesa》（期待）則是一首從 Pietro Mascagni 的《Cavalleria Rusticana》中得到靈感重新創作的古典作品；再次體現莎拉高音領域的繁榮。《Pasión》源自墨西哥電視劇《Pasión》的主題曲，一首西班牙語情歌，與天籟變聲男高音 Fernando Lima 合作演繹；《Running》這個單曲改編自霍斯特的《The Planets》（行星組曲中的”木星“組曲，這首歌與多年前的《A question of honour》有相似之處，是莎拉首創的曲風。）

在這張讓人等待五年之久的專輯中，莎拉的聲線始終還是如此出類拔萃，除了讚歎，唯有傾聽！該專輯也創造了莎拉發行專輯在Billboard 200榜單中的最高名次——第13位，其同名巡演也在2008年十一月於墨西哥展開，此次巡演在北美地區的總票房超過了1000萬美元，成為了2008年度北美地區最成功的巡演之一，此次巡演在 2009年2月至4月轉赴東亞地區，中國大陸的巡演城市包括北京、南京、上海和廣州，香港與台北也是此次的巡演城市。那次巡演無論是從燈光舞美，還是莎拉的表現，無疑成為觀眾們一生中難忘的回憶，奇特的鏡面反射舞台讓人隨時都準備驚呼！但唯一遺憾的是，這場世界巡演並沒出版任何發行物，官方稱當時因為舞台設計和曲目安排特技等拍不出來舞台的效果。]
專輯第三曲《Symphony》是翻唱自德國Silbermond樂隊《Verschwende Deine Zeit》專輯中的《Symphonie》，是該專輯主打情歌。
Sarah Brightman - Symphony
I don't know what I'm suppose to say
When love suddenly you feels so far away
But you're not prepared, you took
And if you're now afraid to listen
And I don't want to do this anymore
Why don't know which way that I should turn
Seems the morning love we know we have to learn
And I keep staring at your space
Like it somehow has the answers
So don't let the music end, all my darling
Symphony
It's gone quiet around last night
How I wish you would hold me
And that you never told me
And it's better if you leave
Look out the sun
It's starting to leads all every eye
But you once spoke so brightly,
tell me we might be
That you're going anyway
When you turn, know what she's got, until it's gone
But then nothing ever hurt like holding on
I am scared and unprepared and I feel like I have falling
So can you tell me, where did we go wrong?
Symphony
It's gone quiet around last night
How I wish you would hold me
And that you never told me
And it's better if you leave
Sarah Brightman - Symphony
But everything is broken
and it's better that we give up
And remember how we once had something beautiful
Symphony
It's gone quiet around last night
How I wish you would hold me
And that you never told me
And it's better if you leave
Look out the sun
When starting to leads all on every light
But you once spoke so brightly,
so tell me we might be
That you're going anyway ]
