But it has that sort of winter feel you have when the days are really windy and the wind takes away all the bad things of the past, cleaning the air for the future.”

Sure, Einaudi may not be composing the most complex of sonatas, but at the London premiere of his Underwater tour last week, it was not difficult to see why he is so widely respected. His ability to appeal to almost every type of music listener across the globe is a talent on its own. This is perfectly exemplified by the sheer variety of his audience’s demographic at the Hammersmith Apollo last week: everyone from young children with their families to university students to elderly couples could be spotted entering the venue.

[ dead link] Given the plain lucidity of these pieces, it is appropriate for them to be played with effortless restraint. And in most cases they are in any case easier to manage and shorter on paper than their most lionised predecessors in the Einaudi canon. The composer has also largely avoided the sizeable hand stretches that populate several of his earlier pieces. In a Time Lapse". AllMusic. Archived from the original on 19 September 2020 .

Einaudi is signed to Decca Records and is published by Chester Music Limited, part of the Music Sales Group of Companies.As a sometime fan of Einaudi’s work, I found Underwater strikingly different to listen to (as have others), and have been looking forward to considering the sheet music folio, which has recently been published by Chester Music / Hal Leonard, and is the subject of this review… He has also released a number of solo albums for piano and other instruments, notably I Giorni in 2001, Nightbook in 2009, and In a Time Lapse in 2013.

The past few weeks have told us more than we want to know about the relentlessly acclamatory optimism of powerful people for whom detail is a mere inconvenience. Like our new PM, the Italian composer Ludovico Einaudi is a populist who has no problem persuading audiences to come out and listen. Tonight’s concert is the first of seven sell-out evenings at the Barbican devoted to his work. And yet his message proves stubbornly empty, unmemorable and humourless – music patched together from cute melodic soundbites and occasional outbursts of bombast. He starts the performance with milder, slower compositions from his latest album, such as Underwater and Flora, and begins to build towards deeper, darker pieces with Swordfish. His band joins him for haunting renditions of Divenire and the show closes with the ever-legendary Experience. Sotto falso nome (Director: Roberto Andò) – Prize for the best film music at Avignon Film Festival 2004 (2004) That’s insightful. I was actually inspired by Debussy for “Swordfish.” The playing technique is similar. But I’m not sure about its diversity from the rest of the album. To me, it doesn’t sound like an isolated composition; on the contrary, it adds a shade of color.This would be a very beautiful piece to play on guitar. It has all the qualities of a ballad. I ended up with several versions of this piece and I didn’t know how to include them all. But then, I decided to take just two versions and put them together—the first part from one day, and a softer, more lyrical coda that I came up with on another day entirely. The title is very simple: The music came to me, rolling like a ball.” After studying at the conservatory in Milan and subsequently with Berio, Einaudi spent several years composing in traditional forms, including several chamber and orchestral compositions. [10] He soon garnered international attention and his music was performed at venues such as the Teatro alla Scala, the Tanglewood Music Festival, Lincoln Center, and the UCLA Center for Performing Arts. [11] After the multi-media-inspired Time Out in 1988, in 1992 he released Stanze, which he had composed for harp. The album was performed by Cecilia Chailly, one of the first musicians to use an electric harp. Einaudi released his first solo piano album, Le Onde, in 1996, under BMG. The album is based on the novel The Waves by British writer Virginia Woolf, and enjoyed mainstream success, particularly in Italy and the UK. [12] His 1999 followup, Eden Roc, was also released on BMG, with shorter pieces. For the project he collaborated with the Armenian duduk musician Djivan Gasparyan.
