In My Time CD music IF I COULD TELL YOU isn't a great departure for Yanni; it's simply a collection of instrumental pop tunes bound to please those already tuned in to his wavelength. "On Sacred Ground" opens with a synthesized wash of orchestral/choral sounds before moving into a syncopated groove, while "The Flame Within" is based around Yanni's piano, adding a little Greek flavoring in deference to the composer's background. Conversely, the ballad "With an Orchid" pursues a somewhat Asian feel, as Yanni's keyboards emulate both the Japanese koto and shakuhachi. "In Your Eyes" begins with the atmospheric sounds of a waterfall, segueing into a semi-classical piano meditation that eventually gives way to a more Yanni-like pop treatment. Things wind to a close with "Reason for Rainbows," which opens gently with what sounds like hammered dulcimer and gradually expands to encompass choral and orchestral tones once more, eventually fading out with the quiet grace that typifies Yanni's musical approach.

In My Time songs Following his breakthrough album, REFLECTIONS OF PASSION, New Age superstar Yanni hit a winning streak with 1992's platinum-selling DARE TO DREAM. Here the Greek composer/keyboardist managed to perfectly balance his flair for dramatic arrangements with accessible pop melodies. The result is a New Age/adult-contemporary classic that features many of Yanni's best-known hits. The lighthearted opener, "Once Upon a Time," is appropriately atmospheric, conjuring up images of fantastical creatures and exotic locales, while "A Love for Life" is a sweepingly romantic number accented by guitar-like keyboard effects. Other tracks are even more boldly ambitious, most notably the anthemic "You Only Live Once," which surges along on a dense bed of keyboard lines, and "Aria," which hits operatic heights, largely thanks to the unrestrained vocals of singer Mona Lisa. For those set to dive into Yanni's individual albums, DARE TO DREAM is an excellent entry point. DARE TO DREAM is also available as part of the boxed set YANNI: THE PRIVATE YEARS with the CDs IN MY TIME, REFLECTIONS OF PASSION, IN CELEBRATION OF LIFE and CD and DVD versions of LIVE AT THE ACROPOLIS. Personnel: Yanni (keyboards); Mona Lisa (vocals); Charlie Bisharat (violin); Charlie Adams (drums, percussion).

In My Time album for sale Originally issued in 1987, OUT OF SILENCE is Yanni's third studio release of highly inspirational neo-classical-infused New Age music. SILENCE also represents one of Yanni's last attempts at composing a pseudo-soundtrack in the vein of Tangerine Dream or Vangelis before plunging headlong into the New Age meets World Music mantra, which has been his trademark sound ever since. Nevertheless, OUT OF SILENCE is an upbeat album, with danceable rhythms, ambient, emotional cues, and textured symphonic arrangements. Recording information: Yanni's Home Studio.
