"I have been an avid Yanni fan since I first became old enough to listen to music. I must say though, this CD is by far the most awe inspiring collection of musical brilliance I have ever encountered! I own at least three copies of each of his CD's, and eight copies of DEVOTION: THE BEST OF YANNI. Listening to Yanni's music has really put things into perspective for me, and has improved my life holistically! I recommend this CD for anyone who has ears!"
Nice Contrast to a Turbulent World
