Here I have some of my favorite songs arranged in my keyboard.
All these songs are done using my Yamaha PSR 640 keyboard, Yamaha PSR 3000 workstation and Anvil studio.
Along with the mp3 files you can also download the midi file of the songs. The link to download the midi file is just below the player of respective song. Since these songs were done using Yamaha synth, some percussion tracks might need to be changed to appropriate tracks to use in other synths and midi softwares. It can be done easily using Anvil Studios software. After that you can use these files for your gigs and competitions.
1. Once up on a Time (2003)
This is not ‘Once up on a time’. It’s for all time. I have not met across any one who’s not mesmerized with the melody of this music. Pan flute mixed with strings and stardust creates a unique and very capturing sound. This song is originally from Yanni’s Grammy nominated album ‘Dare to Dream’.

2. Almost a Whisper (2000)
This piano solo of Yanni has the gentleness of Whispering. But what I have here has no whispers in it. Its a pop rock version of Almost a whisper. This one was just for fun. The original song is from Yanni's Grammy nominated album 'In my time'.

3. Swept Away (2004)
Swept Away is very lively and sweeps us away with its amazing chord sequences. It starts with the soft piano and Chinese violins and grows out to be very sporty and energetic with bright brass.

4. Nostalgia (2004)
The grandiose of Nostalgia needs to be experienced than explained. Every note of this song is very nostalgic and it opens your entire life as an open book in front of you. Had a tough time in putting the whole Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in to my keyboard. I don’t mind playing this song in the middle of night interrupting my deep sleep. That’s true.

4.Kang King Ding Ge (2004)
This is a Chinese folk song. Done during my initial keyboard days. I found this song in one of my old Casio song book. Even I haven’t heard the original song (searching everywhere). I have tried to orchestrate it and I hope I haven’t spoiled structure of the original song. A short and very sweet song.

5. The Rain must fall (2004)
This is a song with very bright rhythm which carries the mood of rainfall. It was a really difficult to play the Charlie Adam's drums in my keyboard. The piano has more reverb in it which drenches us in the rain. The first half is very rhythmic and romantic and the second half grows to be very rocky. Believe me many a times it did rain when I was plying this song or listening to this song.

6. Reflections of Passion (2002)
Our passions are nothing but what our spirit likes. Our passion is the reflection of our spirit. The beautiful piano and grand Orchestra of this song definitely reflects my passion towards life and sound. If it doesn’t reflect anything to you at least it will relax you for a while. This is a 'live at Acropolis' version of 'Reflections of Passion'. Royal philharmonic orchestra and piano by Yanni are simply great.

7. Marching Season (2003)
The song starts with the usual 4/4 piano at the tempo of 90 and grows out to the marching rhythm in 7/8 at the tempo of 186. This is one of the toughest piano pieces I have played along with Mozart’s and Chopin's.

8. True Nature (2003)
True nature of this music is that it has very good melody and very charming cord sequence. This is one of the Yanni’s early studio recording hits.
