The instrument is Armenian "duduk" with a modified mouth piece to adapt to Pedro's playing style, otherwise it takes years to just to be able to get a decent sound out of it.
سطرت انامل هذا الفنان فابدعت رسمت الحان وغناء القمر في اجمل مقطوعاته رائعة حقا هذه المقطوعة واذا اردت ان تدخل في عالم الخيال والحب والشعور بالسعادة.. استمع الى هذه المقطوعة
ياني فنان رائع بكل ماتحمله الكلمة من معنى حيث الفن الموسيقي يعيش في قلبه وروحه ووجدانه
I've always really liked this song, and the video is so much fun to watch, in particular Pedro's interaction with the singers - but my favorite part of the song has always been when Karen just goes to town on that violin. (4:11)
actually it is a Bamboo sax,made by erik the flutemaker, i have the exact one after writing to Mr.Eusatche,trust me you will love it,very fun to play, i also own a Duduk and a Dzi flute,after watching him in these vids :0)
The instrument is not a balaban... IT IS A BAMBOO SAX made by Erik the flute maker, CUSTOM ORDERED BY Pedro Eustache [with extra lower notes, in the style of the Armenian duduk].
yanni please make a live in athens somewhere .. i dont' care in the olympic stadium or panathinaiko stadium...you have to return to athens for a great show
@metzdawg3000 was that your mom whom did the solo , if so she is so magnificent on playing that violin . to me that woman is one bad lady and she is great on that instument . i saw her one time with another violinist when they were having a duel of violins and it was magnificent . i love yanni's work and his orchestra . i just wished i could take out one of those wonderful lady's out for a date . it would be a dream come true .
WOW WOW WOW, nice video, you just made my very stressful day gone, I am very happy to see this video great quality. Yanni is the best, the musician are great, the vocalist just amazing, what an amazing vocal control. Once again Thank you!
@StySho168 Quick correction: it's not a duduk; it's a bamboo sax made by Erik the Flutemaker. I believe Pedro is also playing one of Erik's flutes on Nigthingale.
I have a bamboo sax myself as well as several of his flutes...they're great!
Incredible... Just incredible. Too bad the concerts aren't the same anymore. I wished I knew about him earlier, I would've loved to see him live in Acropolis and the Forbidden City. The female vocalists are incredible and look like they've absolutely had a blast.
I was introduced to Yanni's music by a friend about 8 years ago. The first time I heard it, it swept off my feet. I'd admit that I'm addicted to his music. My all time favourite are "Southern Exposure" & "Dance with a Stranger". Yanni is genious.
This is one of my favorite pieces, because the harmony between the instruments and voices is perfect... Karen Briggs is GREAT !!!! I've tried to discover the language in the last part, when the second lady sings, but I cannot get it. Somebody could tell me ? Thanks in advance and thanks for sharing !!!!!
Some day I will own all material of Yanni, DVDs, LPs, everything ... this man and all he creates, all who join him, they all are too good to ignore them!
that's exactly what i m saying lionpersia and i m happy you see it that way too. music has no boundaries but it's another thing to give false information. i could tell you that you that pedro eustasche is greek too... or to get rid of ethnicities that it's a piece i wrote and yanni stole it from me, would u believe it..?
Great song. actually he is playing only his bamboo and soprano saxes in this video. if you want to hear him play the duduk search "yanni prelude." that is one of the most pleasant songs you can listen to.
best ..ever...thank you

3) Jeanette Clinger is hot!
