Who is listening to this wonderful music by Maestro Yanni in 2024???

Something totally special happened on this concert . It was never outdated , never equaled . Never ever .

Everybody talks about the violin duel. Nobody talks about the percussionist vs drummer

Yanni…. The World’s Musician ❤

I bought this DVD in 93 , 20 years later I remember every mesmerizing sequence and transition. The percussion, the duel for me will never be duplicated. This music is literally etched in my soul! I’m 60 years old but feel so alive after this 🙏🏼

Over the past 20 odd years I've listened and watched so many version of this song. No disrespect to Mary Simpson, Ann Marie Calhoun, Samvel Yerminyan and all the other brilliant violinists who performed this song but the duel in this version has always been the most special one for me. Thank you for sharing this video in this quality.

Karen plays with passion, Rohani plays with virtuosity, what an explosive battle! More like a conversation really. Each beautifully express their individuality in a masterful performance. Bravo!!!

The best Violin Duet of all time!!!!!!!!

Listening for 2 decades out of my 32 years of life ❤️❤️

The best Jazz/Classical crossover in history.

The two violinists were having a lot of fun, while I was burning brain cells processing their level of talent. Simply incredible!

Such an honour to see Shahrdad Rowhani as one side of the violin duet. So proud ...

Shardad Rohani was amazing in this concert ❤️

Nothing can beat this version of within attraction 😍😍

This has got to be one of the best live musical performances in modern history.

iranian and american musicians duo, music brings everyone together. Thanks yanni.

the smile of the lady playing violin is amazing

OMG, What a PASSIONATE performance by these two violinists!

I grew up in the hood and listened to this secretly more than anything else in my childhood. Was I the only one?

This is the perfect version of “within attraction” ❤

The first time I heard this on my television, I walked into my living room and my 15 year old daughter was sitting in front of the TV totally mesmerized with tears flowing down her cheeks.

The dueling violins of Maestro Shardad Rohani and Miss Karen Briggs is one of THE MOST SPECIAL THINGS in ALL of Yanni's music...I'll never forget how blown away I was the first time I was blessed with hearing this tune...My Gosh...Nothing but absolute MASTERS of their craft here! It's AMAZING music!

This is by far the best version I’ve ever heard! Kudos to everyone! Outstanding!!!

1993-2023…..still amazing ❤

I love how the conductor smiles at the lead violinist because knows he's in for a tough competition. Amazing showdowns even with the percussionists!

THE DRUMMER RULES...DAMMMM THIS IS MUSIC IN 2021 YANNY STILL RULES

The BEST version of Within Attraction.

I’ve always thought this was the symmetry of life in motion

The best performance of "Within Attraction" ever, Thanks to Yanni and the conductor, Shahrdad Rouhani,

The obvious mutual respect between the violinist gets me! Loved it!

5:16 THE violin "duel" between Karen Briggs & Shardad Rohani is stunning.

The Female Violinist for sure steals the Show, the Conductor is Obviously a accomplished Violinist in his own right but she has one of those Touches By God kind of talents...no doubt she worked at it and became obsessed with it, that's really the only way to get to that point but she really does have a God given talent...

No words can express what I am feeling. Only enjoy :)

The best violin duel ever.

From Iraq, the greatest music in the world for me. Greetings to the musician Yanni❤❤

This is still by far the best performance of Within Attraction ever! Not saying others were not good by no means. But this is as perfectly stellar as it gets. Plus the venue is such an epic backdrop with the lighting. I’m still in awe watching this.

The drums solo!!! oh my God

So grateful that my dad introduced this to me when I was a kid. This is real music! The passion everyone of these performers portrays brings tears to my eyes. Absolutely beautiful

Изумительное исполнение ! БРАВО !

20 + years later, I’m still listening 😍

26 years and still counting, I grew up with this, still sounds fresh, fortunate enough to discover your music 🙇🏻‍♂️

Love all Yanni's concerts. Those 2 violinists are absolutely incredible!!!

I'm in love with that woman. What an amazing way to enjoy and feel music. So much respect for her.

This is the best version of 'Within Attraction'

The most beautiful music I've heard in my 55 years.

Medicine for the soul. That's what Yanni's music is

He's not only the best. He is God's gift to us, the Lord of Music, the giver of peace to our souls, the changer of our lives, a pure soul. Our one and only beloved maestro ✨💖🎶 Yanni 🎵🌹🙏

What an amazing masterpiece seriously! Even after all these years

The lady (violinist) is a perfect example of God's beautiful creations and is truly a blessing.

Goosebumps!!! Karen Briggs, true Goddess of the violin! They all killed it. That violin duel was epic!!

I remember a night long ago while emersed in a painting, not paying attention to the TV in the back ground.. I looked up but only after this beautiful music coming from my television caught my attention. I'd never heard anything like it before. But even at 23 I could appreciate it for its intelligence and complexity. This person was able to bring together different genres using unique instruments from different cultures flawlessly creating a grand palette of musical compositions to choose from that would satisfy any mood. At the next intermission I soon learned it was yanni presenting his latest concert, Live at the Acropolis on PBS during one of their fundraisers. For over 30 years he has been played an innumerable amount of times and still, I never tire of hearing his compositions. He accompanied me to my art classes for 6 years because his music does not interfere with the creative process it promotes it. My kids heard it from in the womb to graduation wiring their brain for success. My oldest surprised me with a tattoo on his arm that reads, "within Attraction." It obviously made the impression I was hoping for. And still to this day I listen with the same enthusiasm as I did when I was 23 and first gazed my eyes upon him.

I was there in 1993. what a fantastic venue honoring modern greek music...Bravo..

Best version of Within Attraction. I've been waiting for this to drop to youtube (in a good quality) for about 10 years now.

This song is so beautifully composed by yanni that despite listening it more than 1000 times I still to hear it another million times

Greece is a country of greats and heroes We Palestinians are proud of our Greek roots🇬🇷❤️🇵🇸

I CANNOT GET ENOUGH OF IT FOR OVER 20 YEEEEEAAAAARRRRS😵‍💫

Live at the Acropolis is like a beautiful dream❤️

The thing with Yanni's music is that all the musicians automatically get a smile on their faces when they play it - and so does the rest of the world for decades to come.

These musicians are ALL”WORLD CLASS”

Μπραβο Γιάννη δόξασε την Ελλάδα Μας Συγχαρητήρια

The violin duel is so passionate. Im literally crying. Yanni where have you been all my life

The best musical duel ever. But the amazing part is the anticipation of the rest of the orchestra for the battle.

Even after all these years... this is still one of the most breathtakingly beautiful performances I've ever seen. x

If I had one elixir of life I'd give it to Yanni. May his music live forever.

The girl is SERIOUS about her bizness!!!! Boss Lady Karen!! At 5:59 she started to channel her inner soul sister vibe, and it was ON!!!

Hi! Happy Monday Yanni! 😊 This is a favorite with the “conversation” between Karen and Shahrdad Rohani! Thanks for being with us again! 🌹

Dueling violins....this is MAGIC!! 😊❤❤

I loved watching their faces!! They were trying their hardest to outdo each other. But the respect and pride on each other faces was amazing to see!

In this concert I really liked the passionate flirting of two violins !!fantastic playing!!👏🎻🎻🔥

Όπου υπάρχει Έλληνας υπάρχει επιτυχία και όπου ένας Έλληνας μουσικός παίζει θαύματα στον κόσμο!!!

only base guitar lovers will understand what a beautiful slide & tear the extremely talented bass guitarist (dressed in simple orange pant and shirt..but amazingly talented) did(not visibile during this clip period) during 04:05 to 04:08..simply superb and amazing! thank you Mr. Yanni for this beautiful musical journey!

🎵🎼🎼🎵🎼within attraction 🎵🎼🎼🎵🎼❤

Easily one of the best vilolin performances ever. I love watching her dance while she is waiting to play the next best part. This video and song always brings tears to my eyes.The passion in this song is amazing.

Glory to the lord. Yanni you the best. Beautiful people & amazing song. Happy November/09/20. Show me who's watching. I love you guys.

Now that's what I call a "duel" 🎻! Just Fantastic!!! 👏🏾

Where would we be without great music like this?

Power of Music... Listening this song using headphones, seating quiet, eyes shut... By the end of this song there were tears in my eyes, due to ecstasy.... Beyond words... More than 25+ yrs... Same result every time...

Karen Briggs is my inspiration. This is genius. Passion love her dance.

I used to watch this as a 4 year old child every morning on national tv in my country Suriname. This song has always been the inspiration in every step of my life ! I am turning 32 this year . Yanni ❤

He is like God of music to me !!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂

This is the first song I heard years ago and fell in love with Yanni ❤️❤️❤️ The creativity, performance and passion is exquisite! How can one not be in love with @Yanni after watching this video? ❤️❤️❤️ It’s my honor that Shahrdad Rohani is from my country.

I live in the USA & I’m just discovering Yanni! I love all the musicians, especially the bass player & the violin player, she’s amazing!

I grew up with this song, RIP father .

I love this one too! Karen Briggs and the Conductor smile and seem to be talking with their violins. Can't get enough of your music. Love you Yanni and Peace.

I love how Yanni incorporated this fantastic Conductor into the song with his violin skills. I've never ever seen this before this video in all my concert attendances. This is what I call making maximum use of Everyone's skills and talents.

I watched this version and the newer version....this is by far superior. This version naturally blends together like puzzle pieces to perfection. The other version had the impossible task of being compared to this. They tried to put their own unique twists, but they fell short. Karen and Shahrdad struggle and push each other to musical paradise....BRAVO!!!

This is one of the most important songs in my life. Top 10. One of the strongest reasons i deeply love music...

I can not understand how someone can push the dislike button for such a masterpiece !!!

I've said it before. This is my favorite song of my lifetime (68 years now) and I watch it often. It's not just a duel between drummers and violinists. It's a sort of theatrical play depicting a lovers' quarrel and breakup. Watch again with that in mind. Sure, the musicians are fantastically talented, but try to figure out what the composer had in mind.

It's half of 2023 and I'm still right here listening to these masterpieces by @Yanni himself

7:09 I love how they had a moment 😍

That violin duel at the end though!

One thing Karen Briggs is going to do is dance while she does what she does best 👌. Love her ❤

המוזיקה הזאת יכלה לצאת רק מאדם שייש בו אהבת חינם אחד שנוגע בנשמה

@4:07 This part makes me cry. There are no words to describe this masterpiece.

Still my favorite version. The other violinists are great, but Karen Briggs' southern fiddle vibe is still off the charts!

Thank you, YANNI😀♥️🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶

Simply put, blew me off of my chair when I first heard this song, it still does. Karen Briggs is Outrageous and fun to watch. Definitely the Best Violinist I've ever heard!

I recently heard the studio recording of this on a camping trip, for the first time. I LOVE the original synth but I am so amazed at how much the strings add. Every time Yanni closes his eyes, I FEEL THAT! Magnificent!!!!

The drum solos phrasing in the first part of the "battle" is quite similar to that of the first part of the violins' battle. Pretty cool.
