Yanni continues to use the musical shorthand that he developed as a child,[7][8] blending jazz, classical, soft rock, and world music[5] to create predominantly instrumental works.[9] Although this genre of music was not well suited for commercial pop radio and music television,[4][10] Yanni received international recognition by producing concerts at historic monuments and by producing videos that were broadcast on public television.[10] His breakthrough concert, Live at the Acropolis, yielded the second best-selling music concert video of all time.[11][12][13] Additional historic sites for Yanni's concerts have included India's Taj Mahal, China's Forbidden City, the United Arab Emirates' Burj Khalifa,[14] Russia's Kremlin,[15] Puerto Rico's El Morro castle,[16] Lebanon's ancient city of Byblos,[17] Tunisia's Roman Theatre of Carthage,[18] India's Laxmi Vilas Palace,[19] the Egyptian pyramids and Great Sphinx of Giza,[20][21] and the Amman Citadel.[22] At least sixteen of Yanni's albums have peaked at No. 1 in Billboard's "Top New Age Album" category,[23] and two albums (Dare to Dream and In My Time) received Grammy Award nominations.[13] Yanni has performed in more than 30 countries on five continents,[24] and through late 2015 had performed live in concert before more than 5 million people and had accumulated more than 40 platinum and gold albums globally, with sales totaling over 25 million copies.[25][26] A longtime fundraiser for public television,[3][27] Yanni's compositions have been used on commercial television programs, especially for sporting events.[13][28][29] He has written film scores and the music for an award-winning British Airways television commercial.[28] Yanni popularized the combination of electronic music synthesizers with a full symphony orchestra.[30] He has employed musicians of various nationalities and has incorporated a variety of exotic instruments[5] to create music that has been called an eclectic fusion of ethnic sounds.[7] Influenced by his encounters with cultures around the world,[27][31] Yanni has been called a "true global artist"[30] and his music is said to reflect his "one world, one people" philosophy.[27] #jazz #jazzmusic #yanni
