Free Music Review: Gorgeous Piano Solos with minimal background instrumentation
Hit: 5 Stars

I was amazed that such a CD existed featuring what is basically piano solos of the same songs performed in live concerts and in studio versions featuring much more background instrumentation.

On this CD, the only background instrumentation I heard noticeably was a synthesizer (used to simulate the sounds of violins). I think from time to time other instruments are used (cello?, violin?), but what is heard most is the sound of the piano, which Yanni uses to plunk out the melodies of songs that we Yanni fans love.

This is not a CD for music lovers and/or Yanni fans who prefer upbeat music with driving percussion and a full studio sound of orchestra instruments as heard in his great live concert recordings.

The music on this CD is of a mood to relax to and be enveloped in.
In a superficial sense, one could say this music is borderline "Muzak," or "candy." A closer listen will reveal melodies with passages that may resemble "muzak," (sounds to numb out to or be pacified with), but that also contain connections to Greek musical sensibilities (check out some of the phrasings in "Enchantment") and an ability to connect the listener to a deep place of peace and spiritual connection.

Some of the piano styling reminded me of some of the piano solo recordings of artists like Danny Wright and Lorie Line (her "Music from the Heart" and "Threads of Love" CDs would appeal to those who enjoy the simpler versions of romantic songs performed by Yanni as featured on this CD).

There wasn't one song on the CD that I did not enjoy. Of course there were a few that I loved, but as a whole, the entire CD was very enjoyable from start to finish.

My reason for buying this CD was to get "In the Morning Light," a song that is seldom played in the larger Yanni concerts that have been recorded. I also thought it would be interesting to hear the great songs he has done without the background instrumentation. I remember enjoying the fuller sound of the songs featured in the live concerts, but also noticed that when he did his solo piano portions within those performances of the songs, that the solos were beautiful by themselves.

This CD offers the listener a rare opportunity to hear Yanni perform some of his memorable slower songs with only minor accompaniment by other instruments.

A strong recommendation for Yanni fans who can enjoy a CD of 11 tracks of slow, romantic and quietly performed beautiful melodies played with the Yanni flair. (The enclosed booklet, unlike what sometimes accompanies the music of other artists, like Secret Garden, contained minimal information - just a listing of songs, the names of the musicians and the instruments played, and a brief thank you. This is my first Yanni CD. Maybe the booklets that accompany his other CDs contain more information.)
