Album Review - Yanni Truth Of Touch



I was recently given the opportunity to review Yanni's new album, Truth Of Touch. This is Yanni's first instrumental release of original compositions in over eight years and is a return to the genre Yanni helped create and advance.

Here's the list of tracks:

1. Truth of Touch
2. Echo of a Dream
3. Seasons
4. Voyage
5. Flash of Color
6. Vertigo
7. Nine
8. Can't Wait
9. Guilty Pleasure
10. O Luce Che Brilla Nell'Oscurita
11. I'm So
12. Long Way Home
13. Yanni & Arturo
14. Mist of a Kiss
15. Secret

I enjoyed listening to the whole album, but there is something I really like about #2Echo of a Dream. The melody is so pretty and kind of surreal sounding too.

I'd love to play this album while I'm having dinner but with 3 noisy kids that's kind of hard to do at this time! However this is the kind of music I like to have playing in the background when I have some time to kick back with a book. I'll definitely be adding Yanni's Truth Of Touch to my playlist.
