Konterr Brilliant and touching

rlkdlk I first saw this concert on PBS back in 1995 and had to have it right away. Through the years of moves and storage and kids and jobs and family and lending it out - it got lost. Well, I finally replaced it a few years ago - and had the same exhilarating feeling I had watching it all those years ago. And still do - every single time I watch it. It never fades. Out of all of Yanni's concert videos I think this one is the best. It is simple yet dynamic. Yanni clearly shows his talent for composition. The orchestra directed by Shardad Rohani was spectacular -- and the band members - the best musicians in the world. I am impressed with them all but Charlie Adams on drums just blows the audience away and the keyboard expertise of Bradley Joseph is strikingly phenomenal. This is an amazing concert that will live on forever in music history.

PunchsucKr I waited for a whole 11 years for this DVD and i finally got my hands on it!! i like all its tracks specially Aria and One man's dream..they blow me away. An absolute must for every music lover! i first heard it when i was a kid in 1995. i began liking the track Aria and after repeated listening started liking the whole album (u know i was just a kid then, with little interest for songs). being able to see the concert was a dream come true thanks to this DVD! i have now seen it many times now but don't seem to get enough of it. the royal philharmonic orchestra coupled with Yanni's charisma create such an aura that simply take you to some other world. wish i was there to watch the spectacle in Greece then. but the DVD does manage to recreate the event with its magnificent sound and video quality....go ahead and buy it.

ccthemovieman-1 This concert was so successful that it led to another one several years later. What the long delay in the third video is, I have no idea but Yanni fans are getting impatient. This and the following "Tribute" tapes/discs are SO good it's been tough waiting for the third.There is a big different between Yanni's work with his small group and when he performs with a big orchestra, and this was the first evidence of that. I've watched this video/DVD now for over a decade and it's still some of the best music I've ever heard - and seen. The colors from the purples, reds, yellows, etc that change all the time on the historic Acropolis site are beautiful, almost as beautiful as the music emanating from the musicians.You can always tell Yanni's personal musicians from the rest of the orchestra: they are dressed a bit different and all have the long hair! The most visible and electric of them all is violinist Karen Briggs, who just astounds with her playing. I never get tired of seeing her play. Here is a woman with great talent and style. She hams it up a bit, but who cares? Speaking of hams, no one seems to mug in the spotlight more than drummer Charlie Adams, but he's so likable no one minds. He draws a big laugh in the middle of his long, impressive solo. Enjoyable, too, are the solos by bassist Rick Federrici and pianist Julie Homi, whose cat-like looks mesmerize me.There is not a bad song in the bunch in this incredible concert. I hate to sound cliché-like, but this music is so good, so classy, it will endure for a long, long time. Music like this never goes out of style.

Bruce Lee The concert begins with Santorini a chilling track. Then Yanni and his amazing team produce a continuous flow of wonderful, amazing and refreshing music that has never been heard on this planet before. Karen Briggs the superhuman violinist,"the lady in red" just adds to this heavenly evening with her violin performance. Her solo performances are mind blowing. And so is Charlie Adams who is damn happy and excited to break his drums.Yanni looks God-like and plays with wonderful dexterity on a grand piano and many other synthesizers. Also Royal Philharmonic Orchestra team from London delivered a great performance.It was a perfect evening with perfect harmony of different musical instruments. It sounded like music made in heaven. I am sure the audience who were there that evening felt close enough to heaven. I wish I was there. A perfect masterpiece!!! I wish I could give it a 100 out of 10. Must see and you wont regret it.
