Find album reviews, stream songs, credits and award information for Voices: Live in Concert - Yanni on AllMusic - 2009. October 20, 2009. New Age Pop/Rock. Contemporary Instrumental Adult Contemporary Neo. Yanni's triumphant return featuring classic and new songs performed by extraordinary new voices.
Ah, yes, Yanni..I remember him well..way back in 1997, his music was considered 'new age' but, don't ever let him hear you say that (out loud) as he prefers to call his work 'contemporary instrumental.'
Either way, this Greek-American keyboardist and composer knows how to work the romance and -- though, I must admit, I miss his mustache, a little -- I was excited to learn that Yanni is back and, with the help of 4 fresh new artists, his music sounds better than ever!
