Last night we went to see Yanni, live. I love his music. And like one of the reviewers said, sorry, not sorry. Passionate, powerful, dynamic, moving, joyful...and more. Plus, he's charming and a real delight on stage
Here are just a couple review snippets;
***************************************************************************
"He performed with his 12-piece orchestra for more than two hours with music from all walks of his career. There are few modern-day composers with a unique sense of music and style which is truly their own. To compare new-age music with classic rock is a stretch, but for Yanni, it is possible. This Greek composer marries contemporary new-age spirituality with today’s pop attitudes and delivers a unique sound which puts him in a class of his own. As far as contemporary new-age music goes, Yanni is a step above the rest.
What pleasantly caught me off guard Monday was the amount of genuine fun and energy there was on stage — not just by Yanni playing his multiple keyboards, but by all 12 people in the orchestra. I have always known that Yanni, as a composer, created all the music — not just for the ivory keys, but for all the instruments on stage. I have never seen one of his live performances before. It was a real treat to see him demonstrate that he has a complete connection to his music — and is able to show it in a very unique and entertaining way."
I want to go again, and again and again and again!
If YOU ever get an opportunity to see Yanni live, please! go, you'll LOVE it I promise.
