Ουσιαστικά η καριέρα του ξεκινάει το 1980 με την ανεξάρτητη παραγωγή του άλμπουμ Optimystique. Η επιτυχία που σημειώνουν οι δίσκοι του την δεκαετία του '80 είναι τεράστια αλλά ο Yanni γίνεται παγκόσμια γνωστός με το 5ο live άλμπουμ του το 1994 με τον τίτλο Live at the Acropolis από το κονσέρτο που είχε προηγηθεί τον Σεπτέμβριο του 1993 στο Ηρώδειο.
Ο Yanni παραμένει στη κορυφή εδώ και 4 δεκαετίες και θεωρείται ένας από τους σπουδαιότερους συνθέτες της New Age, Easy Listening, World music, ενώ κάθε ζωντανή μουσική παράστασή του είναι ένα σημαντικό παγκόσμιο καλλιτεχνικό γεγονός.
