The Million Dollar Piano was captured over multiple nights in 2013 at Elton John's residency at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. The show has been running since September 2011, with the most recent leg spanning 16 shows between March 29 and April 26, 2014. The concerts are the culmination of Elton John's tracks from across his extraordinary career, performed either with his band, solo, or with percussionist Ray Cooper. The multimedia staging is phenomenal, with vast screens behind the stage, illustrating the songs and the piano itself, acting as a screen for graphics and animations. The concert video is packed with such classics as "I'm Still Standing," "Rocket Man," "Philadelphia Freedom," "Your Song," "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road," "Circle Of Life," "Blue Eyes," "Bennie And The Jets," "Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me," "Crocodile Rock," "I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues," and many more.
