The new conductor was very bland compared to Shardad, the new percussionist was pretty good, Ric was great, of course. Now and then a voice or two is okay.but continually using the girls and their synchronized moves. In the Acropolis concert, Yanni's music is crisp and clear and beautiful. The new keyboardist was spectacular. At one time, with the long trumpet solo, it was just another piece of jazz.IMHO. I stopped everything and put this DVD in the player just as soon as the postman brought it today.
I really liked Adagio and Tribute.and that's about it. No thanks.it shouldn't take that to get Yanni's music across. I expected to be captivated, just like I was with the Acropolis DVD. And what's with the go-go girls. And I really missed Charlie. Unfortunately, this is one of those concerts that I can listen to a couple of songs and then go about my business.
In the Taj Mahal/Forbidden City concert, Yanni's music is loud and busy.leaving the listener with very little opportunity to appreciate any of the components.
The Beautiful Taj Mahal of India, The Mysterious Forbidden City in Beijing and the fabulous Music of Yanni - What more could you ask for.
They are soothing for relaxing at the end of a stressful day. I never get tired of listening to his music and watching his concets on DVD. Yanni is by far, one of the greatest musical artists of all times. His natural talent and development of a unique style of music is refreshing to listen to and his concerts are world class.
Lovely piece of work. Title after title, more and more you listen further you get loved and impressed by the manner the music is presented. Recommended for musical lovers to buy. This is one of the DVD's which I used to listed very often. May be in a relaxed evening, busy times, while driving, and the music refreshes you all the time.
The singers, the musicians, the audience. To me Yanni Tribute is inspirational, and watching the faces in the audience is a treat in itself. I say this, because I put him on right after Yanni, and saw some similarity.
Yes, I have heard it, via a friend, and I was immediately taken with it. He and the producers have provided us with something wonderful. I am purchasing this DVD for myself and one for my grandson.
I think those who like this would like David Phelps (probably my favorite). Bravo.There are not many albums that I like as a whole, but I like this one, big time. The talent is magnificent.
Not sure always what Yanni is doing, but he seems to be enjoying himself, and I have to disagree with comments against him.
