2008年1月，莎拉发行了她自《harem》以来的第一张新录音室专辑——略带哥特风格的《真爱传奇/交响曲》“Symphony”，专辑主打曲《Fleurs du Mal》（恶之花）以带一点悬疑的管风琴，哥特摇滚磅薄气势拉开整张专辑的序幕，同名歌《Symphony》（交响曲）翻唱自德国Silbermond乐队《Verschwende Deine Zeit》专辑中的《Symphonie》，是该专辑主打情歌；《Canto Della Terra》（大地之歌）是与跨界男高音Andrea Bocelli（安德烈波切利） 等待十年的再度合作；《Sanvean》（我是你的阴影）翻唱自暗潮团体Dead Can Dance的《Sanvean (I'm Your Shadow）》；《I Will Be With You(Where The Lost Ones Go）》（我将与你同在）翻唱自挪威女歌手Sissel Kyrkjebo（西索）的同名曲，是口袋妖怪10周年动画剧场版电影的主题片尾曲，在发行的单曲版本和维也纳史蒂芬大教堂个人演唱会里是与 Chris Thompson （克里斯汤普森）合作的，而在本专辑是与 Kiss 的主唱Paul Stanley重新录製了一个版本；《Schwere Tr?ume》（沉重的梦）改编自奥地利作曲家和指挥家 Mahler 的作品；《Sarai Qui》（你定会在那里）翻唱自 Faith Hill 演唱的电影《珍珠港》主题曲《There You'll Be》，与义大利男高音Alessandro Safina（亚历山大沙费纳）用义大利语合唱，比原曲更加大气磅礴；《Storia D'amore》（爱的故事）是一首古典作品，貌似来自义大利的同名电影；《Let It Rain》（下雨吧）是原创的都市格调情歌；《Attesa》（期待）则是一首从 Pietro Mascagni 的《Cavalleria Rusticana》中得到灵感重新创作的古典作品；再次体现莎拉高音领域的繁荣。《Pasión》源自墨西哥电视剧《Pasión》的主题曲，一首西班牙语情歌，与天籁变声男高音 Fernando Lima 合作演绎；《Running》这个单曲改编自霍斯特的《The Planets》（行星组曲中的”木星“组曲，这首歌与多年前的《A question of honour》有相似之处，是莎拉首创的曲风。）

在这张让人等待五年之久的专辑中，莎拉的声线始终还是如此出类拔萃，除了讚叹，唯有倾听！该专辑也创造了莎拉发行专辑在Billboard 200榜单中的最高名次——第13位，其同名巡演也在2008年十一月于墨西哥展开，此次巡演在北美地区的总票房超过了1000万美元，成为了2008年度北美地区最成功的巡演之一，此次巡演在 2009年2月至4月转赴东亚地区，中国大陆的巡演城市包括北京、南京、上海和广州，香港与台北也是此次的巡演城市。那次巡演无论是从灯光舞美，还是莎拉的表现，无疑成为观众们一生中难忘的回忆，奇特的镜面反射舞台让人随时都準备惊呼！但唯一遗憾的是，这场世界巡演并没出版任何发行物，官方称当时因为舞台设计和曲目安排特技等拍不出来舞台的效果。]

专辑第三曲《Symphony》是翻唱自德国Silbermond乐队《Verschwende Deine Zeit》专辑中的《Symphonie》，是该专辑主打情歌。

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]
