Finally the official website has been updated today! Yay!
It's been quite awhile since I last heard of his new compositions since 2006's Live Event. Now he's up to something new. You can see what he is up to this time, from the video at the site.
Although as a fan I'm delighted to get the latest updates, but I express my disappointment and worry. You see, now Yanni is into vocals music, in other words, singers are brought into his music.
I like Yanni's music for it's instrumental masterpiece, but at the same time I dislike vocals being added into instrumental music. From the songs I heard from the video, someone's singing Italian lyrics for Adagio in C minor, while some ladies singing for the other song. My first impression tells me that this music is turning into pop....
One thing for sure, is that all these worried and disappointments could be temporary. It is just a sneak-preview for an entirely new stuffs from Yanni, and I should not judge things at first glance. Perhaps I'll change my mind once more stuffs to be revealed in future?
Yanni is still one of the best composers I ever heard of. :)
Yes,Yanni has joined forces with the Oscar/Grammy winning producer, Ric Wake, to create new music and discover extraordinary vocal artists! Yanni and Ric's goal is to collaborate with prodigy singers/songwriters and put them in the most creative environment possible to reach their full potential. The two have settled into "Camp Yanni" in South Florida, immersing themselves in the studio producing new music...over 80 new compositions

Hi,
ReplyDeleteI am the same as you. I don't especially like vocals with music. That's one of the reasons I was drawn to Yanni's instrumental music. I,too, was concerned when I heard that Yanni was going to be adding lyrics to his tunes. But then I heard what was on the new video and I REALLY LIKED IT! :) And I realized that Yanni's music is still Yanni's music and it still has that magic for me.
So I am also keeping an open mind. Yanni seems to think the best is yet to come. I'm very hopeful!
Saw your post on the YMB. Hope you'll become a regular. :)
