This great concert recorded at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, Las Vegas, where Matt Goss (Bros) has his infamous Gossy Room and is really something to be seen. ‘The Million Dollar Piano’ is being performed to standing ovations during Elton’s current residency at Caesar’s Palace and includes all of Elton’s greatest hits from throughout his career including ‘Rocket Man, Tiny Dancer, Saturday night’s alright for Fighting, I’m still Standing, Goodbye yellow brick Road, Crocodile Rock’ and ‘Your Song’.


At the centre piece of the performance is the show’s namesake piano, an engineering marvel featuring more than sixty eight LED video screens created by Yamaha. Nearly four years in the making, the state of the art piano is the perfect accompaniment to Elton’s greatest hits displaying fantastical imagery to complement the entertainer’s fan favourites. Creating a whimsical, one of a kind entertainment experience, the piano weighs in at nearly 3,200 pounds.

Completing the incredible spectacle is the show’s impressive and elaborate baroque style stage set, masterminded by the show’s design team, the late Mark Fisher and Patrick Woodroffe. Fisher best known for his design of Pink Floyd’s 'The Wall' and his work designing the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2008 Beijing Olympics and Woodroffe conceived and designed the impressive lights display that perfectly augments the set and piano.

“I’ve had the best time in Las Vegas, because I always thought of it as a challenge and wanted put on the best show. I don’t think there could be a better looking show than this in Vegas or in any venue anywhere.” - Sir Elton John
