Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Must be seen to be believed
Review: "Tribute" is Yanni's richestet compendium of music to date. It has a South American flavor and utilizes numerous unusual musical instruments, including exceptional vocals. The video is much more exciting than the CD, on which the live responses, which are so energizing, have been omitted. Nightengale is a most original piece...don't miss it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A Musical Fairytale on DVD
Review: Already owning the CD and the video, I was glad I could buy the DVD version of Tribute. Deliverance is without a doubt the best track on this DVD, combining great rhythms, string orchestra, chants by the female vocalists and marvellous melodies and native instruments into a beautiful composition. This track alone is more than worth the price of the DVD.
Adagio In G Minor is a very soundtrack-like piece with piano and string orchestra. Renegade is sort of a soprano saxophone/violin duet.
Dance With A Stranger is a piece where various instruments play a short solo. A very relaxed and laid-back piece. Tribute is another highlight with vocals in the intro, followed by some beautiful violin playing accompanied by a choir. Very classical oriented.
Prelude a short piece with native instruments. After a couple of minutes this piece goes into Love is All, which is one of the two only tracks with lyrics on the album. Accompanied by Spanish guitar this is a rather radio-friendly tune with great soulful vocals and the full choir.Southern Exposure starts another laid back tune with female backing vocals, saxophone and violin. Later on in the song things get more rhythmic and swinging with nice interplay between the violins and female vocalists. Next in line is Waltz In 7/8 then. Great piece of work with flutes, latin influences and a keyboard solo. Nightingale is probably one of the quietest songs on the DVD.It features some bird like flute-playing with a slight Japanese feeling. Of course the big string orchestra is present as well.
Niki Nana (We're One) starts with the native sounds of a didgeridoo. After about half a minute the electric band picks up, a flute plays and the vocalists start. Marvellous song. In addition to the CD version the DVD and video version end with the track Santorini, from the Live at the Acropolis album, which equals the track Deliverance for me in giving me goose bumps all over my body. The DVD as well as the video contains also "the making of" and this part is really well worth watching because it shows more of the ecstatic reactions of the audience itself and gives you insight in Yannis life. The whole show itself is a pleasure to watch. The fun the members of the band have in performing their music is great to see and gets you in a good mood as well.The only thing I see as a disappointment is the fact that the DVD was not released in the Dolby 5.1 surround mode. That could have lifted up the experience in seeing, hearing and feeling this music to the ultimate top.

Summary: Soothing and regenerating to the soul
Review: Even those who are generally not moved by music will love this video. It is filled with energy! Yanni so obviously loves his music, and his spirit flows through his orchestra which is composed of talent from all over the world! One of the few music videos I would ever buy, or watch again and again. The music crosses the lines of ages and style. END

Summary: Listening alone with wine and enjoy
Review: First time when I listening to the tape was on the company assignment to Guam. In a little cafe, Yanni tape and Habana cigar, nothing else can you add on to make a perfect night. I went back to the cafe two nightsin a role.

Summary: The best of all.
Review: For all Spanish speaking, quiero desirles que este es un gran "CONCIERTO" de Yanni, ya que esta filmado en dos grandes lugares del mundo. La musica es increhible, Yanni le da mucho "SAVOR" a su musica, pues varea de muchos sonidos y ritmos a la vez, que te llevan a otra dimension. Lo recomiendo muchisimo, esta buenisimo..

Rating: 4 stars
