Yanni Voices (and a Giveaway)

February 16, 2009 by Caryn 

This giveaway is now closed.  Thanks for stopping by.  The winner is Ken Robinson.  Congratulations!

I haven’t posted a recap of BlissDom (but it’s coming!). I’ll start by telling you that we were treated to a very special screening of Yanni Voices AND I got a picture with two of the singers, Ender Thomas and Nathan Pacheco.  On March 2, PBS will premiere a special concert series where you’ll get a chance to hear and see Yanni Voices on television.

If you’ve never heard of Yanni or you’ve never listened to the music, I highly recommend checking it out. It’s truly unlike anything you’ll ever listen to.  The music is an eclectic mix of instrumental compositions and vocals with an underlying romantic feeling.

Here is a little more about Yanni Voices, from the site:

Yanni, in collaboration with legendary producer Ric Wake, has discovered and developed four of the most extraordinary young voices in music today. Two years in the making, Yanni returns to the global stage with a dazzling new tour. For the first time ever, Yanni re-interprets his classic compositions and debuts new music introducing show-stopping vocalists Nathan Pacheco, Chloe, Ender Thomas and Leslie Mills.

If you’re fortunate to live in one of these cities, you may be able to catch them on tour!

Win It!  One of you will win a Yanni Voices CD/DVD Preview set and a box of Godiva Chocolate Truffles courtesy of One2One!  Simply head over to the site and listen to a preview of Yanni Voices.  Come back here and leave me a comment with your favorite!  Comments will close on March 1, 2009 at 10 pm PST.  One comment per person, please.
