A fan review...
Yanni Voices hit Las Vegas with an incredible performance full of life, passion, fun, friendship and Desire!
This is my second show, having seen it early in the tour. I see so much growth from Orlando to now. All of the Voices seem to have come into themselves, opening up and relaxing on stage and off. These four young artists are genuine, kind and humble.
Nathan, your voice sends shivers down my spine. Thank you for sharing your incredible skill and sweet personality with us last night. You made our night very special.
Leslie, you are a beautiful, elegant and talented lady. I love your songs and your skill with lyrics. I hope you truly do enjoy performing Theory of Everything as much as it appears from the audience standpoint. You seemed like you could have done that forever.
Chloe you amaze me. You have such an incredibly versatile voice and your command of the stage is fabulous. Your personality shines through and I cannot believe your energy. Ahh to be young again
Ender you are such a gentleman. I wish I could have had an hour to expand on what we talked about last night. People definitely are enjoying the concerts and you. But more importantly they are embracing all of you.
I have watched this project from the beginning. You have gone in the fans minds from being strangers who will ruin Yanni's music to being an essential part of what many call a family. Most of us cannot imagine Yanni without you now. We love the instrumentals but you all are just as important. As we agreed last night, you will never please everyone. But for those who are disappointed, I encourage them to take a look deep down and figure out why they are disappointed. Is it really that you only like instrumental music - or something more. I know for myself, at first, I felt as if Yanni was being diluted by the presence of 'extra' artists. But that sense dissolved when I started feeling the music.
And one more thing to what I want all of you to know. Not only have I seen a change in you, I've seen how your presence and this project has changed Yanni. He has always balanced his work with the needs of others in an extremely graceful way. But you all have brought out a different Yanni. He's a proud mentor to you all and it shows in his joy at watching you perform and helping you grow. A change has definitely come over Yanni, and it's a wonderful change. He's stepping outside of his 'my world' secure bubble to a more global view. I realize for most that will seem ridiculous since Yanni has always been very global in his viewpoint. Now it seems to have moved into more of a sense that you, Yanni, Ric and the audience are the show. I know one thing, I love how happy he seems and I hope it never ends.
Yanni you are the reason I came to Vegas tonight. I doubt I would have known the music of Leslie, Chloe, Ender and Nathan if not for you and Ric. Thank you once again for the spectacular job you do and for sharing your incredible music and these wonderful artists with the world.
I was fortunate enough to make the acquaintance of Cesar, Benedikt, Anna and Samvel this trip. And once again I was able to see Charlie and Ming. Thank you for being such warm, considerate people. You are extraordinary musicians along with all of your fellow musicians, and I thank you for sharing your gifts with all of us.
YMusicMuse, thank you for attending the fan gathering, and for all of the wonderful work you do to keep fans informed. It's such an incredible feeling having you back with the family. I hope you are having a great time.
And to YManRep, thank you for your kindness and your skill at removing the backing of aftershow passes
To all of the YMB and YVMB who came to Las Vegas - it was wonderful to meet everyone. Thank you for the laughter and the tears. You all added so much to the sense of excitement we had about this trip.
Thinking about those of you enjoying the show in Glendale tonight. Have a great time! You are in for a real treat.
