Symphony: Live in Vienna is a live concert by Sarah Brightman, inspired by her Symphony album. It was originally only available as a premium for a donation to the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) in the United States. A lower-level donation would yield a free copy of the DVD, and a higher-level donation would yield a set containing both the DVD and a companion CD.

The 75-minute concert was recorded on 16 January 2008 at Stephansdom (St. Stephen's) Cathedral in Vienna. The audience consisted of a small group of invited guests and members of Sarah Brightman's official website's fan area, to whom free tickets were made available.

Recorded in 5.1 Surround Sound, the DVD has over 40 minutes of special features. They include a photo gallery, two separate interviews with Sarah concerning the production and the songs of Symphony, and an interview with Father Anthony Faber and historian Elisabeth Lloyd-Davis focusing on the location of the concert.

The CD in the CD/DVD package also has a special bonus not available elsewhere: a studio recording of Sarah performing "Vide Cor Meum" by Patrick Cassidy. The CD-only edition does not include the bonus track.

The CD and the CD/DVD package were released on 10 March 2009. The DVD includes a picture gallery with pictures from the concert, two interviews with Brightman, as well as an interview about the cathedral with Father Anthony Faber and historian Elisabeth Lloyd-Jones.As documented on the DVD packaging.
