A remarkable, unpreceedented project and a PBS special, TRIBUTE was produced during the first concert staged at the Taj Mahal and a first performance by a western artist at the Forbidden city, China.By becoming the first major Western Artist ever to perform and record at India's Taj Mahal and China's Forbidden City, resulting in the multi-platinum album Tribute. This is an artist who invested millions of dollars into the project before a single sound was recorded, whose organization mounted a near biblical effort with the regional of Uttar Pradesh to improve roads and build two bridges in order that the flood plains surrounding the Taj Mahal could be transformed for three historic concerts beneath one of the world's greatest wonders.
While allowing India's citizens to see a musical performance in front of the country's signature structure, Tribute ultimately led to three million dollars in donations to a Taj preservation fund. The recording of Tribute proceeded to China, where Yanni staged a new historic feat at another of the world's great architectural achievements, The Forbidden City. Between India and China, Yanni played to a collective audience of 250 million people.
The album includes Tracks:
1. Deliverance
2. Adagio In C Minor
3. Renegade
4. Waltz in 7/8
5. Tribute
6. Dance With A Stranger
7. Nightingale
8. Southern Exposure
9. Prelude
10. Love Is All
11. Niki Nana (We're One)
12. Santorini
13. No Borders, No Boundaries

Hey sweet!
Yanni always surprizes. Forgot how beautiful his sounds are .Timeless.
What balls! India and China??? sure must have had a treat playing there what with all the red tape!
I wonder what Yanni's doing these days after some funny issues last year. I feel he man has a surprize or still in store for us.
Tribute was 10 years ago. But i dont think we've heard the last of him yet...in fact listening to this i feel there is much beauty yet to come.
You go Yanni.
