Product Description
From Amazon.com
The album's title is Tribute, but it just as easily could be called Spectacle. Everything here is done on a grand scale, from its ambitious staging areas (the Taj Mahal and China's Forbidden City re-creations) to its large gathering of instrumentalists (more than two dozen) to the histrionics of two impassioned vocalists on a pair of the album's 11 tracks. The only thing missing seems to be the maestro himself--so submerged is the visionary-keyboardist in the mix. The musician showcased most often on Tribute turns out to be energetic violinist Karen Briggs, a familiar figure by now to all who have watched Yanni's global ramblings on television. The compositions and arrangements, it seems, are intended to be the stars as Yanni lives out his Beethoven-like dream sequence. Stylistically, the music ranges from urban smooth jazz to earnest orchestral sweeps. A grand concept, but not an entirely great result. --Terry Wood

AMAZING ENERGETIC LIVE CONCERT ALBUM!
Feb 21 2004
Format:Audio CD
This album of Yanni is astonishing. The orchestration and the arrangements are magnificent. You can hear the bass pumping through you. Songs like: Deliverance, Nightingale, Renegade & Waltz In 7/8 are amazing!!!
I guess by this album, Yanni has reached a level of maturity in composing music, something similar to the old classics of Beethoven, Mozart, ....
A must a have album for music lovers, not only Yanni fans! ;)
Breathtaking
Jan 22 2004
Format:Audio CD
This was the first "New Age" album I ever bought. I had no idea what to get... at the time had never heard of Yanni. I just saw the background on the cd cover and liked it so I bought it. Was I in for a suprise. This cd is possibly my favorite out of my entire collection. "Prelude" is my favorite song... how I wish it wasn't the shortest. I loved this song so much I performed a dance to it about six years ago. This album has so much passion, and truly makes you feel as though you are on a journey. I cannot say enough about the true artistry Yanni gives us all.
At first no.........then yes!

1.Deliverance(8:33)This song is great. This is a great welcoming song
2. Adagio in C Minor(3:50)This song is really great. there are lots of violins and orchestra music in there and i play violin so one day i hope to be like Karen Briggs(Yanni's lead violinist)
3.Renegade(7:14)This song is really good. You just hum, and hum, and hum all the time
4. Dance with a stranger(6:45)This song is awsome. I like the trumpet solo
5.Tribute(6:50)This song is great. The song of the album. Who is he tributing?
6.Prelude(2:27)This is his shortest song. This is the song that leads onto love is all on the dvd
