Elton John

In December 1986, Elton John delivered a memorable live performance of 'Tiny Dancer' in Sydney with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, showcasing his unique blend of rock and classical music. This concert came just a few years after the release of his acclaimed album 'Too Low for Zero' in 1983, which revived his commercial success and featured hits like 'I'm Still Standing.' During this period, Elton was not only riding high on a wave of musical resurgence, but he also had a very dynamic personal life, marking his transition and growth as an artist. The collaboration with a symphony orchestra for this live recording exemplifies how he skillfully merges different musical styles, captivating audiences with his powerful vocals and emotive piano work.
