Steal the Sky is the soundtrack album for the HBO movie Steal the Sky, composed and performed by Yanni. It was released on the Rhino Entertainment label in 1999. The album peaked at #17 on Billboard's "Top New Age Albums" chart in the same year.



Before he became a superstar in the new age music scene, Yanni composed and performed the score for HBO's 1988 production Steal the Sky, which stars Mariel Hemmingway and Ben Cross. This previously unreleased score features Yanni's original, sweeping compositions as well as his rendition of the Beatles' "Nowhere Man," and is a must for Yanni fans.

Heather Phares - All Music Guide



Created as a soundtrack for a 1988 HBO film, Steal the Sky is a serviceable assortment of cues, mood-setters, and atmospheric backdrops designed to embellish an action-romance plot linked to the Six-Day Arab-Israeli War of the late 1960s. The music (more action than romance) is clearly the servant of the story as assorted themes surface, then swiftly change or vanish altogether - typical of a traditional soundtrack. Some splendid moments make brief appearances here, particularly a 90-second segment of progressions that begin about seven minutes into the seventh track. Earnest Yanni fans hoping to unearth something rare and wonderful in this musical footnote from the keyboardist's past may be disappointed; this is a decent but not essential recording. Newcomers should investigate Live at the Acropolis or Reflections of Passion.
