Yanni - Discography- 34 Albums [2027]

Recent albums, such as "Night of Fire" (2016) and "The Secret of Life" (2019), have continued to push the boundaries of Yanni's music, incorporating orchestral elements and collaborating with guest artists.

His career is generally divided into his early synth-heavy years and his later, world-fusion orchestral era.

In the 2010s, Yanni achieved a synthesis of his past styles. He returned to the electronic roots of the 1980s but applied the production techniques and orchestral knowledge of the 1990s.

A radical departure. Yanni Voices features four young singers (Nathan Pacheco, Chloe, etc.) singing lyrics to melodies from his older instrumentals. "Orchid" (from If I Could Tell You ) becomes a vocal duet. This album divided purists but introduced Yanni to the Pop/Adult Contemporary charts (Peak #5 on US New Age).
