Performer: Yanni
Distributor: MSI Music Distribution Notes: "YANNI", "SONGS FROM THE HEART VOL. 1 AND 2", "BMG", "CD", "NEW AGE" This Austrialian double CD set includes 25 tracks from the internationally renowned new age composer/musician. Not surprisingly, the Australia-only double-disc collection Songs From the Heart concentrates on the romantic material alluded to in the title. There's not much in the way of liner notes -- it's a simple insert, listing a brief bio and a quote from Yanni, and the inside of the booklet is as white as the driven snow -- which suggests that the collection essentially is a budget-line release, but the music itself fulfills the promise of the title. It sets a romantic mood and sticks with it, which will likely be enough for anyone who wants this album (although it may not be worth import prices for non-Australian consumers on a budget). ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
One of modern instrumental music's most distinctive and popular composers, Yanni popularized the combination of synthesizers and full-scale symphony orchestra. The Greek performer combined his musical abilities with a flair for flamboyant visuals, coming across like a more dignified, New Age version of Liberace. His mix of music and spectacle made him a star in the 1990s.
